Although it is like a compilation of instant noodles, but such daily life is life.

In terms of artistic attainments, the film is not weak, freehand and extremely simple paintings, less music, natural and realistic sounds, ordinary life trivia, the family formation process that unfolds with the wedding speech like a random thought at the beginning, and minor-key songs Wait, it can be said that the director did not follow the path of Hayao Miyazaki and made a unique work, but he forgot that this was a movie, and it was difficult for ordinary audiences to accept this new approach. Although it is these small things in life that are ordinary or even dull rather than ups and downs that constitute our daily life and life, but there is not enough coherent plot to suffer in the movie. To put it badly, it is more like a season of instant noodles. Finished by cutting off the excess credits and endings. Maybe the picture is just the carrier after all, and the effect is not as important as the rendering of the tone of the whole film, so although the picture is simple, but looking at the warm, cute and harmonious Yamada family, one hour and forty minutes does not feel long.
