This movie is awesome. I'm so mad at myself for not finding it sooner, but still this movie is an encouragement for those who are currently losing hope. It was actually the first movie that made me shed tears, and it wasn't one time, I had cried throughout the movie! However, at the end I realize that I didn't cry because of Yuuki death but because of the motivation he left in his friends and the outlook he had on life in general. After finishing the movie you will understand, life isn't for accomplishing goals it's for learning. Even if you loss in a game or even while fighting a disease like Yuuki, as long as you tried your best and change your negative outlook, you've won. It might not be a full victory but you have at least won to life because you will have no regrets in the end. This movie motivates you to keep on trying and gave you a different outlook on life. As for someone like me who have no real experience in this world, the movie guide me toward finding a goal and encourage me to keep on living with a smile. The determination within Yuuki with slowly guide you to seeing the real meaning of victory. I really recommend this movie if you hadn't already seen it before. It's not a depressing movie like I've thought in the beginning but it is a very powerful movie. I hope this is helpful, enjoy!!! ^=^
