Though made by different directors, there’s a visual language of urban detail, intimate gesture and expressively animated lighting that connects all three — they’re like sweet, sad pop songs from a supergroup with many lead performers.

Three linked stories about nostalgia, family binds, love, lost chances and food; the food story is enough for open your apetite. The result deserve a little bit longer. Just stay for the end of post credits.

It's more food based anime than a slice of life. I know there's a niche fanbase out there for food related programs but this film was just boring. Don't let the marketing around this being created by Makoto Shinkai's studio, this film had nothing to do with him.
