Yell for the Blue Sky (2016)

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL MOVIE. I feel like crying even though it's not even a sad movie. It is so inspirational (motivated me to play piano) and just... BEAUTIFUL. (I just watched it now, so sorry if I sound too emotional).
Everything about it is just perfect, thus the 10/10. It doesn't have that hurried feeling that most j-movies have and the story is really amazing.
The only reason the re-watch value is so low is simply because I never like to rewatch anything... unless I forget about the plotline completely.

This movie is definitely a 2016 must-match, so go watch it NOW! XD

This movie is a really cute film. I enjoyed it a lot. It wasn't over dramatic and had a simple story to tell. The two leads bond over their desires to succeed in each of their own clubs: Ono in brass band and Daisuke in baseball. Both want to get to the finals, however each meets their own struggles along the way.
The actors were really good in this. They showed their character's passion and determination well. I also believe the supporting characters should be admired. This movie doesn't have complicated love triangles but rivals who look out for one another.
If you hate brass band music then this film isn't for you since it is pretty much the soundtrack.
The story wasn't rushed, but did leave some gaps I would have prefered filled.
Anyway...watch this if you are looking for a light story with minimal drama and lots to look forward to.
