A wholesome and beautiful movie

I wasn’t originally gonna watch this, instead looking for other movies but I caved and I’m happy I did- this was a seriously good movie. Shino and Seiryo relationship development was so beautiful to watch, this movie had you smiling at how genuinely sweet all their interactions were. It was interesting yet cool how the narration changed from Shinos point of view to Seryous, a contrast between Shinos lighthearted outlook and Seryous more serious outlook on the “week long relationship”. Every character was lovable, I found myself shipping them quickly just because of how sweet their interactions were. Both actors shared great chemistry and really gave their best in embodying the role. Although never fully revealed, you could see how Shino (though a bit confused) grew feelings for Seiryo, as shown when he got jealous at the call with the other Shino. My favourite scene of Shinzo would probably be where he touches Seryous face and they almost kiss. His love was also shown when he grew more attentive to Seiryo facial features, gifting us such a cute scene where the chemistry was killer. Although he hadn’t really realised it, he was already falling in love. I loved how they showed Seiryo more serious outlook, believing in love but believing at the same time it might not ever happen to him yet still having hope each week. It was so pretty seeing how he was unable to break up with Shino ( by then he was already falling) it was also shown throughout where he couldn’t take his eyes off Shino, and although he still did everything he did every week, he did more such as actually kissing Shino and realising his feelings. My favourite scene of his has got to be saying good bye to the other Shino/ex, validating the fact he was inlove with Shino. It was a really beautiful ending yet also bittersweet, beautiful and evokes joy in its own right but also sadness at the fact the movie is over. Overall I give this 10/10 because of how good it is, it’s only one hour long but is still a great movie that is worth multiple rewatches. The extra characters such as the friends provided good plot aid but also their own likeable characters, the adding of the archery club let there be a bonding between Seiryo and Shino even before they had properly talked. I know if I’m feeling down, this movie will be there to cheer me up.
I don’t think I can choose a favourite scene, because each minute was good in its own right but if I had to it would probably be the scene where they kiss which was really cute or the ending just at how beautiful it is.
