Review of Voices of a Distant Star (2002) by Vivienne O — 10 Jul 2008
Ok, I did it backwards. I first watched 5 Centimetres per Second, then The Place Promised in Our Early Days and then Voices of a Distant Star. I am no longer certain that I can rate any of those three animes properly. If I was able to watch each without the knowledge of others and rate them as such, each would garner a 5 from me... but the fact that I have watched all three and that I know they are all from Makoto Shinkai, makes it very hard to not see that his vision somehow seems limited and the premise seems recycled. I really want to love all three but I really can't.
I somehow really regret watching all three and wished I only stuck to one.
