Peeling the fruit.

Warning: Spoilers
Being in town, I decided to take a glance at what was playing at the local cinema. Discovering that an Anime which I had not heard of before was soon starting,I decided to pick up a fruit basket.

View on the film:

Filling the basket with ripe, tasty hand-drawn animation, with an expressive warmth in the facial animation of Honda and Kyoko, the makers sadly sour the taste, by slapping 30 minutes from the Anime on the opening of the film, which gives off the whiff of the studio cutting corners.

Slicing open a tense family Drama from Tohrus mum, the screenplay by Taku Kishimoto tries to play off large age gaps in the romances as comedic, but ends up making Katsuya looking like an extremely creepy groomer, as the fruit in the basket becomes rotten.
