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.

Refreshing story, but extremely boring. Okay, the plot was okay, with a girl who tries to play trumpet at her school club and a boy who wants to win the championship with the school baseball team. The film focused on their efforts to become the best in their field and to fulfil their dreams. With some ups and downs (which were the few only twists of the movie) they strive and overcome their difficulties. However, the movie never reaches that point where you can finally see that they had succeeded. Especially for the girl, we only see some scenes at the very end, when the movie has already finished. Good performances from the actors help a lot to make this movie better. However, the romance was extremely weak. So, 4 out of 10.

Perseverance is really Important

Just finished the movie and I gotta say that it leaves such a warm feeling by the time you finish it. The song at the end specially would give you such a feeling of warmth. I watched this movie after listening to that song repeatedly. The acting by our two main leads was good. If felt natural for high schooler even though it is a fantasized version. No unnecessary plots. I specially loved how both the leads focus on perfecting their craft for not only because of the promise but also because of the passion and respect they have for each other. Only problem with this series (not the movie) is that the manga is not fully translated in English and there is no anime version. What the hell are you waiting for Japan. Make an anime adaptation of this Shoujo. It would sell like hotcakes. Sorry to go off on a weird tangent but the point is this movie is not only wholesome but also inspirational. It would inspire you to be best at your craft while also encouraging others to do the best.

Love it! The story and plot of this movie quite light, the pace also in a good speed; which not too slow but not too fast too. They also concern about the detail, so that this movie didn’t have a hole in the story. The conflict and the solution made are also great, they’re fit the youth life and the solution/decision youth preferably take. But I'm a little bit disappointed because they don't fully showed the final concert.
