Wow, are you kidding me?
This was the most pretentious garbage I've ever come across. And I've seen a lot of crappy *beep*

First of all, we get basically no introduction to the characters and their relationship. We just know that they seem to like each other. Next thing you know this girl is out in space fighting aliens with some sort of robotic space suit textmessaging the guy about how sorry she is that they can't be together. Well guess what? I couldn't give a flying *beep* about you and your emo feelings, since I know absolutely nothing about you. Why should I sympathize with this character? I know NOTHING about her or the guy! It just seems that she's whining troughout the movie, when it was her choice to leave so she should just shut the hell up already.

And please, stop it with the glows and lensflares! We get it.

Thankfully it was only 25 minutes long, I was about to turn it off and then it ended all of the sudden.

"It would be.. I'm here..."

*PUKES*

Yes I did actually enjoy it.

You wanna sympathise with characters? Nearly all teen slasher movies start with character introduction but that does not change the fact that they are garbage. The robots are just an homage to japanese mecha you can just ignore the robot fights because it is just eye candy. I felt there was no intention of making a pretentious anime contrarily knowing that every single graphical detail was drawn by only one man, I can only but praise the inhuman effort.

Everyone may face separation in their lives, no matter it is intentional or not. And in my opinion, feelings towards each other may grow stronger after separation. You start to think about good old days, and grow an obsession.

The point was that this gap could be overcome by feelings disregards to distance, time or space which I think they are extremely true.

This anime dealt with an extremely natural, humane, and ordinary but overlooked issues.

I wish the movie was hours long.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.

I agree. The length is great, but I'm sure if it was longer, it'd still be great.

Can't stop the signal.
