Some Questionable Story Elements, But Enjoyable All in All...

What a depressing, frustrating ending! I'm so glad that there's a sequel so that Toey and Oat can be reunited. I've heard so many rave reviews about the sequel and wanted to watch it, but of course, I had to watch its prequel first.

Quiet. Watching this film is like taking a stroll in the park. Calming and relaxing. There's a feeling of ease. Though I did like Oat and Toey's relationship, how it started was questionable. A random rape subplot committed by Oat who didn't seem like the person who would take advantage of Toey. It felt completely out of character for Oat as if the writer wanted to inject some conflict into the story. In addition, the rationalization of the sexual assault on both Yumi's and Toey's end was questionable. "If it was a woman, it would be better." What?! And Yumi using natto to open Toey's mind up to guys was weird. All in all though, I enjoyed the film and really liked the relationships between Toey and Oat. That ending where they reunited after several years was quite sad and touching as they realize how much time has passed and thought about what could have been. I am ready for the much lauded sequel!
