Summary:


Makoto Konno is a somewhat foolish and tomboyish high school student who spends most of her time hanging out with her two male friends. Things change one day when she suddenly gains the ability to leap through time! At first, she uses her newfound ability to do things such as preventing her sister from stealing her dessert, cheating on a test, and singing Karaoke for 10 hours. However, the small alterations she makes to the timeline turn out to have unforeseen consequences that snowball into dramatic and lethal situations for her and those around her...


*************************************


This movie is up to the standards of a Ghibli film.


The only problems I had with this movie was the ending and the fact that you don't know enough about Chiaki.


The original novel and the live action film are about 'Auntie Witch', Kazuko, the art director woman.


I give a 4.5 out of 5.
