Viewing Notes

Had to revisit before I pitched it for movie night. Haven’t seen since I first watched it w/Yumi back in the day. Totally the kind of movie to watch with her.

A little sad that Maki Horikita retired in 2016 or so. She is great in this and all the other movies I’ve seen her in. Guessing she got married and started a family bc she’s still young now.
