Synopsis

Upon reaching the train station to death, a dejected soul is informed that he is lucky and will have another chance at life. He is placed in the body of a 14-year-old boy named Kobayashi Makoto, who has just committed suicide. Watched over by a neutral spirit named Purapura, the soul must figure out what his greatest sin and mistake in his former life was, before his time limit in Makoto's body runs out. He also has a number of other lesser duties he must complete, such as understanding what led Makoto to commit suicide in the first place and learning how to enjoy his second chance at life.

EssenceStory Well Deserved Praise
Tetrady not as good as all the hype
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Manila Meem Some movies are never worth to write a review, I learned that today!Second Chance.........We all wish that, to have a second chance to renew our life again.But do we really get that?Probably never.All we get to run in a new way, not looking behind.Road is pretty big right?This movie made me regret on what I did to my life, my failure, my hope, everything.Again it made me feel that nothing is never over.We have to live on.Doesn't matter roads we have passed were broken.We still need to keep walking!"No need to kill yourself when you are already dead" :-)Hence, I continued to live like a Zombie from now on........
bxd109 First of all, the art wasn't anything special rather it was very plain but it gave the story a nice touch. The story was about a soul who had to find out his/her sin. I kind of expected a very different ending but that one was a real twist and i liked it. I have always thought of suicide as a great sin and you don't have to believe in god or angels to think that way. Trying to end your life is never going to make things better, even if you die ;) you have to try to find beauty in your life no matter how many hardships you encounter. This movie will surely show you a beautiful perspective of life and people.
andrewsro This movie really blew me away. It isn't the typical fantasy or violent anime most of us watch but, it is really powerful. To start i'm going to say that not everybody will rate it a 10/10. The meaning of it will be interpreted in different ways, and depending on how much you can relate to it will impact your rating.The animation is beautiful, with many colors and cool locations to look at. The story can be very dark and unusual but also fun and playful at times. I recommend everyone watch this movie at least once, to get the full meaning out of it. To me I really felt it was trying to teach me to be thankful for what I have, and to value my life even at the worst times.
Jim Fess This is a movie about a person who gets stuck in the body of a young boy who committed suicide and then has to find out the secrets of this boys life and why he made the choices he did. At first glance i thought the movie was going to be a good one, not amazing but really good. I was right! This movie really makes you think about life and why were here. What i liked the most about this movie is it really shows you that anime isn't just about these foreign worlds with magic and awesomeness, they can also be very realistic and as dark and cruel as the world we live in. There are things that happen in the boys life that will have you saying "wow...if i went through that i honestly don't know how i'd react", its a bitter sweet movie. This is a must watch in my book, it has such a deep message and is just done so spectacularly. One thing that really stands out is the character designs, the main characters, almost all of the characters aren't some awesome looking stand out design. They're all very simple and maybe even a bit strange from your "normal anime looks". In my mind its to point out that their just plain normal people with no real specialness about them and thats not a bad thing. Now as for the artwork? Its flawless! One of the most beautiful pieces of art i've ever seen, the music is also amazing. This hole movie is really just such a gem!My score is 4.5/5. Why not 5/5? Honestly i don't know, you get so attached to the characters and this boys life in such a short time it leaves you with an empty feeling when its over. I have no real reasoning to not giving it a perfect score more then i don't give those unless they completely blow me away, this was close but i'm not even sure what it was missing it was amazing. A must watch for any one, anime fan or not it brings you to reality and makes you think about the choices we all make and how they effect everyone around us.
