The Garden of Words

Even though the age gap is wild, this movie isn’t a romance in the typical sense. It is very hard to look past the age difference, but I think the point of the movie is in spite of it. I’ll say this now and always but Makoto Shinkai will always be my favorite animation director

UNCOMFY. When I watched it a few years ago, I was looking forward to it, but a wet towel was quickly thrown on all the interest when it became clear what the premise was. Teacher/student romances put me off REAL bad, especially with an age gap like this one.

7/10 I honestly don’t know why I’m not rating this lower as the story is just not sad or interesting at all especially because it’s between like a kid and a teacher and they make it so deep and philosophical when it’s just not that. Animation is beautiful though. Way overhyped.

Good movie, boring but good. Why did people cry at this?

i watched this so long ago so i dont fully remember. but wasnt she totally a pedo

Don’t overthink this. Just watch it and enjoy the aesthetics and the emotions… ♥️
