Anonymous Noise

Well shot, well voiced, actors carefully chosen, in my opinion. Shison Jun did a good job looking gentle and sweet (compared to his role as the freak in Todome no Kiss) and Koseki Yūta was unrecognizable from the beginning, suddenly he was a really handsome guy. Unfortunately, the film feels a bit hollow, and it's hard to tell whether or not it’s because of the source material. But why watch it? It’s only worth it for the scene where those two have a guitar duel. And maybe you're also in the mood for something unpretentious, where no one's tapping their feet and everyone's sort of friends, understanding of everything, and nothing much happens. An average high school romance that punches above its weight in music. (02/02/2019)
