We can't go back anymore, right?

I was thinking if they did not transfer. If there is not such a great distance in space, then the ending of this story will not be established.
If they are in the same school, in the same place, they will be close, share their hearts with each other as they did in the past, and then walk together to the beginning of adulthood.
Will they still be like this?

Gradually. . . Let it fade away. . . .
Write letters, text messages, phone calls. . . . As the years passed, the
mailbox gradually became less , and as the age grew, it became empty. . .
As a result, what was needed to work hard in the past, and the reasons for struggling for it, paled.

The protagonist must be Takaki Tono.
Compared to the heroine, he is a more sensitive and innocent person.
I think, when he repeatedly opened the mailbox and saw that it was empty, his heart was complicated? Helpless, sad, or knowingly?
This is the price paid for growth.

Finally, the heroine is getting married.
He is still walking in this noisy city. Walking so lonely.
In the three years of getting along with my ex-girlfriend, the distance between each other's hearts was only 1cm closer

, and it was a little numb, a little painful, and then there was expectation.
Expect, yes, expect. Only there is a better pure longing and stick with paranoid people
will be 13 years old when the affair and into the blood and bone as a measure of future standards
only for innocence has insisted paranoid and stubborn looking for people
they are so in the adult world Live alone.
If Takashu in Kagoshima hasn't realized that he feels lost in his heart, was
he just lost in losing his goal at that time?
Then Kishu, who returned to Tokyo as an adult, finally sees himself clearly.

Some people still insist on their inner persistence. And find their own way of survival in this city
For example, Guishu, the moment he passed by the station as a child, he turned his head back.
Some people, like most people in this world, follow the rules of the world and continue to walk on their own path of happiness,
such as Mingli, after two trains have passed. She left.

In spring, the cherry blossoms fall, like snow. .
We have made an appointment to see the cherry blossoms again. When should we wait?

In Guishu, I saw the shadow of director Xin Haicheng himself.
Persistence to the heart, persistence to the self, persistence in seeking a path to oneself.
And the persistence of the few people in this world who walk alone for real happiness.

When I read the first episode, I didn't know the reason, and I shed tears.
The 13-year-old traveled a few miles just to see her again before leaving.
And some fine mastery afterwards, also made me cry.
Watching the entire film, I understand the reason for my grief.
Because of those innocent pasts, we will never go back.
We are all walking lonely in this noisy world. . . . .

    In the past few years, I have only thought about "move forward first", and wanted to get something out of reach, but I couldn't figure out what it was, and I didn't know where the feeling of coercion came from. I just continued to work. , came back to his senses, and his exhausted heart had nothing but pain left.

    The male and female protagonists were only thirteen when they kissed for the first time, so it's understandable that the plot is a bit small... Wait, thirteen years old? ! At 13 o'clock, I was dreaming of conquering the world...== The narrative began to slowly collapse when it was halfway through. Compared with the simple characters, too frequent perspective changes and interludes made me think that I was telling three unrelated stories.

  • Takaki Toono: It must really be a lonelier journey than anyone could imagine. Cutting through absolute darkness, encountering nothing but the occasional hydrogen atom. Flying blindly into the abyss, believing therein lie the answers to the mysteries of the universe.

  • 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.
