Haruki secretly has had feelings for Akihiko for years, but Akihiko was still in a relationship with his roommate, the violinist Ugetsu Murata. Haruki, Akihiko, and Ugetsu's love clashes on the big screen and starts to move forward.
ShiroHatake Feb 3, 2021 7 I am a follower and lover of the manga so I will preface my review by noting that I came into the movie already knowing how the story would play out. My biggest critique of the film is that the pacing is pretty fast. The movie wouldhave greatlyimproved if they increased the screen time from 59min to 80min. This would have allowed for smoother scene transitions and more appropriate emotional pauses in the dialogue. There are some emotional scenes throughout the movie where the audience isn't given enough time to sit in that moment and really feel what the characters are feeling before being swept into the next moment. I think some of the character motivations are also blurred because of missing dialogue and scenes that were cut out from the manga. Which I think would have negatively affected the movie experience for someone whohasn't read the manga. What makes this arc so compelling is the angst between the characters but that isn't felt as strongly in the movie adaptation which again negatively affected the movie experience for an anime only watcher. So if you enjoyed the movie, but want a more detailed versionof the story I highly suggest you read the manga. My second critique for the film was the song performance. The song lost some of its power and impact because there was significantly more internal dialogue from characters and even an overlaid cut scene with dialogue during the performance versus the one in Season 1 episode 9. I had to watch the song performance twice to catch everything that was happening. To be honest I should have watched it a third time. Showing the cut scene earlier in the story and replacing it with silent scenes depicting Ugestu's conflicted struggle or Akihiko's pain during the song would have been preferred. Now for the positives: the music was just as strong in this movie as it was in Season 1. The music is powerful, impactful, and emotional. The animation done by Blue Lynx was very well done and held true to the style done by the original animation studiofromSeason 1. The story is compelling and emotional (although watered down in this version). The characters as always are wonderful. I recommend you watch it, butalso recommend you read the manga either before or after you watch it. 3
Ahlex Feb 3, 2021 9 I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING This review comes from someone who follows the manga, so take that in consideration. I already knew what was gonna happen and since the manga gives you more depth and emotion, when you watch a scene you kinda feel the emotion you felt when reading, because you know more about the characters and the story, you have bonded more deeply with the characters, etc. so you're basically just revisiting all the emotions /pain/ you have felt before. I loved it. I've been waiting for this for almost a year and it didn't disappoint. Has always, given is really well adapted. The ost is amazing, eventhough we've had the music for months they still make me emotional and fit so well with the scenes. Altough the adaptation is really good, I do have some issues with it. The scenes that were cut out. The scenes that lost some of their meaning. The things that were so well explained in the manga and here they were rushed. Complex characters like Ugetsu and his relationship with Aki deserved better. Aki's redemption arc deserved more depth. etc. For example (light spoiler until almost the end of the paragraph), the scene where Haruki leaves his home and is crying while walking on the street had such a huge impact on the manga (because honestly Haru is baby and one of my favourite characters after Ugetsu so that might have something to do with it) but here I didn't feel the same kind of impact. I mean, there was feeling but it was just not the same thing. The same happened with some other scenes. Not something that ruins the movie but I've read the manga and I'm a little biased. Of course this, as following the manga, has the same scene that has problems and was considered unnecessary for a lot of ppl. It's not terrible (coming from a person who has read/watched a lot of this genre) but it's something I definitely did not expect from given and that could've been handled differently. But that was the manga's author choice and already a problem on the manga so I won't be discussing it on the movie review, since it doesn't concern here. And since I already knew it would happen and had enough time to muddle over it and be kinda mad at the character in question, it didn't impact much my enjoyment of the movie. I'm not sure how it would be for anime-onlys tho, you'll probably be mad about it like we all were. That being said, as I am a huge fan of given, I really am biased and that's what made me like this movie so much. Seeing this finally animated, even if it isn't perfect, was a source of joy and well, tears, because I love these characters a lot. Also if you haven't read the manga I recommend you do so. The manga is absolutely amazing and way more profound.

CodeBlazeFate Sep 22, 2019 7.2 Given is 2019’s dark horse. It’s a title that has been slept on for its subject matter instead of appreciated for its prowess. Unlike Bloom Into You which received a major backing over the course of its run, Given seems to have received little fanfare within the community despite the praise most viewers have for it. I wouldn’t call it amazing, but it certainly does resonate, much like a good tune.The tunes in this show are very solid. There are several fun jam sessions where the main band of the show plays some delicious math rock, and there are several background tracks that also have some guitar in them. The opening, “Kizuato” by Centimilimental is another emotional banger of a rock song, only beaten out by the stellar insert track in the 9th episode. Said track is also one of the biggest emotional payoffs in this show.Given has a very delicate sense of drama. It’s more than happy to interrupt its melancholic vibe with a comedic tone shift, which can get annoying even when the joke lands. Regardless, the tone can still get heavy without being overbearing. There are some matters regarding a critical plot point that feel unclear, somewhat undercutting even the best moments in the show, but the show is generally well-written and emotionally resonant. The way it handles its gay characters and their drama is mostly solid. Much like last year’s queer hit, Bloom Into You, this show tackles gayness in several angles. It’s doesn’t explore as many avenues, but it does show off several struggles when it comes to gay relationships, especially regarding one that ends in tragedy. The character interactions are just as adorable, especially whenever Uenoyama, the main protagonist and resident male tsundere, gets embarrassed. There’s quite a lot of jokes revolving around characters making quick jabs or getting flustered, and they’re priceless. For a show that’s melancholic, it can be quite hilarious.The character interactions and personalities are why the humor can land in a show this delicate and forlorn. Uenoyama as almost as dorky as Mafuyu, who borders on being a space cadet lost in his own thoughts as he gazes blankly at nothing. The other two members in the band are Haruki and Akihiko, and their dynamic is also pretty entertaining. The former is just as easily flustered as Uenoyama is, and the latter is somehow the laxest of the bunch as he acts as the one guiding everyone along and holding everyone together. Their individual stories of romance are also treated tastefully for the most part. Some of the monologuing can get pretty bad in the show, and some of the monologues of the gay thoughts can get...a tad excessive to the point of tastelessness, to put it frankly. Thankfully, they never last too
