I remember watching the trilogy alone last year on Singles Day. Then I cried and cried, one more chance one more time put it into the phone and it has been circulating until today.
A year later, in a lonely and unbearable night, Alexander's tears finally fell at the moment when the last crow flew over the snow.

In fact, the plot is really simple and ordinary, just like the featureless characters of the protagonists, drowning in the vast sea of ​​people and long lives. However, those indescribable emotional stagnation took several years, decades and decades to become the you and me that we are today.

The female protagonist 123 in the second 5 can't see her own projection, but the most resonant is the male protagonist's various monologues, lonely, hesitant, want to move forward, but don't know where to climb, finally turned around and found himself Devastated. Even the coder part...
probably the reason I'm struggling with life far more than being in love. Uprooted, displaced, struggling, working hard for an uncertain future... always looking at the distance, wanting to stay in the present, but afraid that once you relax, you will lose all your efforts.

Three months ago, I broke up with my boyfriend who dated at 5:00 last year. Even so, I don't have time to heal the wounds in my heart, because I need to leave immediately, because life and study wait for no one. Maybe that void will always be there, and then be pricked without realizing it. The person I'm dating now is not a human being, and even if I exchange a thousand text messages, the distance between my heart is only one centimeter closer. Once people live hastily and numbly, they will be careless about other things.
I am afraid that I will end up with the same ending as the male protagonist, but what other choices are there?
So life is helpless.

  • Akari ShinoharaTakaki Toono: *Akari and Takaki kiss for the first time*

    Takaki Toono: And right then it felt like I finally understood where everything was, eternity, the heart , the soul. It was like I was sharing every experience I'd ever had in my past 13 years. And then, the next moment, I became unbearably sad. I didn't know what to do with these feeling. Her warmth, her soul. How was I supposed to treat them? That, I did not know. Then right then, I clearly understood that we would never be together. Our lives not yet fully realized, the vast expanse of time. They lay before us and there was nothing we could do. But then, all my worries, all my doubt, started melting away. All that was left were Akari's soft lips on mine.

  • Takaki Toono: On that day... the day she called... Akari must've been so much more jittery and upset than me, yet I couldn't find the words to console her. I felt so ashamed of myself.
