The Girl Who Leapt Through Time: Movie Review! (SPOILERS)

Hi people! Yesterday, I watched the Japanese animation movie, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. It had an extreme impact on me and it was just so amazing.
It focuses on a girl named Makoto who lives in Tokyo. One day on her school board, she sees a quote that says, "Time waits for no one."

She then stumbles upon a small walnut-like object and while she's bike riding home, she can't brake her bicycle as she's riding down a hill. She's about to be hit by a train but she leaps back in time.

She then finds out that she has the power to time-leap. She uses this power to her advantage for good grades, etc and to avoid a love confession from her friend, Chiaki.

She avoids Chiaki for a while but gets jealous when he gets with another girl. But she discovers a number on her arm which is actually the amount of time-leaps she can use. Makoto uses her last time leap to avoid a question from Chiaki, who asks her if she's been time leaping. She then discovers that her other friend Kousuke, borrowed her bike, which has a broken brake, to give his friend a ride. Kousuke and the girl almost die the same way Makoto almost died in the beginning, but Chiaki uses his final time leap to save them. Chiaki then freezes time to tell Makoto that he came from the future to see this painting that had been destroyed in his time frame and that the walnut was a time leap device. He now has no more time leaps to return to his time frame and because Chiaki told Makoto where he was from, he now has to leave. But she finally realizes that she loves him! He disappears, and Makoto is seriously sad for a while but then she finds a number one on her arm. She realized that Chiaki timeleaped to the time before she used her final time leap. She uses her final time leap to go back to the time before she got her powers.

Chiaki is back and he doesn't remember anything, and Makoto tells him everything. She promises to protect the painting for him in the future so he can now go back to his time. Before he leaves, Chiaki tells Makoto he'll wait for her in the future and then he goes.

Honestly, my description was probably super confusing, so I apologize for that. The movie was a bit confusing too with all of the time leaps, but you'll understand all of it at the end. Sigh... this movie was absolutely amazing. My eyes are still swollen from all of the crying I did as I'm writing this. The ending... just made my mom and I burst into tears. She never told Chiaki she loved him which made me so freaking sad. I'm also in love with Chiaki!!! He is such a gentleman and he's just so nice and earnest. Makoto and Chiaki are so cute together I cry. The plot of this movie was so beautiful and the ending just seriously killed me.

You all should really watch this movie if you want a good cry. Here's the trailer if you want to watch it and please comment down below your thoughts! Thank you for reading and I will see you next week with a new blog post!
