It was a nice cute fantasy&romance japanese anime. It started when Hinako picks a seaport city for college due to her love to surfing. A fire accident happens in the building she lives in. Hinageshi Minato a firefighter saves her And this is a start for them to establish a relationship. Well I won't spoil the rest of ittttt... It was a predictable anime but this didn't stop me of enjoying it... This is a great anime for those who are in a stage in their life that they need to move on from mourning period and overcome their grief. This anime taught me how to love and then how to move on, how to be independent and live my own life. As you know animes are full of colorful foods. In this one there was the Japanese Omelette called Omurice. It sounded nice and I'm gonna make it.

The thing is when people are watching anime movies, they usually do not expect that it could be extremely touching and really intense. This is what exactly happened to me though, I was recommended to watch "Ride your wave" thousands of times, however, having come across some short videos on Tik Tok really got me interested! Even though the story might seem a bit tacky, the plot itself and the portrayal of the characters is undeniably stunning! Sure, it had me crying out loud, especially at the end of the film. Never have I ever seen such a strong bond with a beloved one in an animated movie that could intrigue you over the course of the film.

Ride Your Wave is a 2019 romantic fantasy anime and tells the story of a young girl named Hakico who meets Minako a firefighter and they slowly start to become a couple. However when tragedy strikes with Monaco,Hakico is left heartbroken. But whenever she sings a song,Minako appears as a ghost through water. But will Hakico move on? Overall it was a good movie. Somewhat silly but it was good regardless.

I've been putting this movie on my to watch list ever since I watch the trailer, it seems very well animated and the colour just pop out and looking soo interesting. But, I've been reluctant on watching it since the story seems too lovey dovey and too sweet for my taste. I'm quite familiar with manga that dabble in the same area and I've avoiding those kind. But oh boy oh boy, this one is good. Sure at first it felt like that, a couple start too fall in love and it's very romanticized. The good thing is the female and male lead sold it off very well and the voice actor really did a good job on building the chemistry between each other. So, instead of feeling cringe, i start to having fun too watching them. I give it quite a high rating because I didn't expect much from the plot. But, this movie prove me wrong. Sure, the story is still chokefull of cliche. But, the movie make it feel fun and i know i probably not the main audience for this kind of movie, so to me it's all right. Also, like I said the animation is very beautiful. The colour is very vibrant, and the way they use colour to accentuate characters and the scenery is very on point. It's quite an eyegasm. Recommend if you feel in the mood for some light hearted bittersweet romance.

Just surfing through life. A romance anime that I found on HBO Max. The animation for this movie was gorgeous and cute. The look of the ocean and waves were so refreshing. It just made me feel relaxed and happy watching this animation. This movie had a one of those montages of a couple that would make you feel sad that you're single. The romance was cute and I enjoyed watching the relationship. As for the story, something major happened midway that required the main character to move on. There's a big element of fantasy, but not one that I haven't seen before. The plot was pretty typical of a drama dealing with death and moving on, so there wasn't too many surprises. Also, the emotion wasn't as high as I wanted, probably because of the typical storyline and the light tone. The characters were pretty okay and not unexpected. The main characters were focused mostly, and the two side characters wasn't delved into as much. Overall, beautiful and refreshing animation made for a pretty enjoyable romance drama. 7.5/10.
