Based on the award winning film by Makoto Shinkai, 5 Centimeters per Second is now compiled into a beautiful hardcover collector\'s edition! Love can move at the speed of terminal velocity, but as award-winning director Makoto Shinkai reveals in his latest comic, it can only be shared and embraced by those who refuse to see it stop. -- The Anime Harvest.
Good relationship advice.
But I was genuinely shocked to find something in 5 Centimeters per Second that no other romance anime or manga has ever had. -- Ani-Gamers There are a number of things I expect from a romance manga, occasionally even things that change who I think I am.
Seike\'s take on the story is more human--a stunning feat considering the strong emotional punch of Shinkai\'s original film.
It is nothing short of a miracle that 5 Centimeters per Second is one of the best Japanese comics I have ever read ... -- Good Ok Bad History does not tend to smile on manga adaptations of anime properties...
Roundly satisfying.
Because as good as Shinkai\'s 5 Centimeters is (and it is good), Seike\'s 5 Centimeters is better...
More than acquits itself, actually. -- ComicAttack Yukiko Seike\'s adaptation acquits itself on all points.
If you\'ve never seen the film, I highly recommend it.
So, if you\'re a fan of the film, there are plenty of reasons to pick this version up.
The format just allows for it, and Shinkai and Seike take advantage of that...
Ever had trouble letting go of your love? A stunning official comics adaptation that manages to add new layers of emotion and intimacy to one of director Makoto Shinkai\'s ( Your Name , Weathering with You , Suzume ) defining works--finally available in gorgeous hardcover! [W]hat this version has over the film--more depth.
ONE MORE TIME...
