This is one of the most relaxing anime movies Ive ever seen. Its the perfect non non biyori movie everything is wholesome no lewdness no weird anime tropes its really a familyfriendly relaxing movie. Okinawa really reminds me of my country. The movie reminds me of the trips Ive been going with my family. Its really the pacific vibes haha Pacific Ocean and makes me remember all the fun I had when I was a child and how I get attached to the place Ive been staying in similar to the inn shown in the movie. I just loved how realistic this movie was with the way the children acted and the adults too. If you want to watch a relaxing movie with your family this is the one. 400https://ur.com/KWdJuiF.png Spoilers I guess Lets start from the beginning and I mean the real beginning: The OVAhttps://anilist.co/anime/20497/NonNonBiyoriOkinawaeIkukotoniNatta/. Its about the preparation and the last day spent in their homeland but the movie showed how Suguru won the tickets to Okinawa. I liked the connection and gives more context. Then they start their journey and reach the ill where they meet Aoi a child who worked there with her mother. 220https://ur.com/UuzBB2D.png They probably own the inn. They go to the beach do their activities and its all wholesome. I liked how they decided to divide them into different rooms it felt planned and this shows the authors have already experienced these type of trips. One thing I wanna talk about is that the kids are comparing how organized and obedient Aoi is compared to Hatsumi If you have seen the series you pretty much know how Hatsumi is a bad student lol. During the first night Hatsumi finds out Aois secretly playing Badminton when she was ordered by her mother to wash or do something with the dishes Hatsumi talks to her and realizes she is a member of the badminton club of her school so Hatsumi asks her to help her practice but Aoi mentioned to do it. One of my favorite moments is when Renge woke up and didnt realize they were already in Okinawa that happens to me too. During that second day they go snorkeling and the music and animation were beautiful. The ocean looked beautiful and right now Im next to the ocean too yeah Im at the beach. 220https://ur.com/SMGFI67.png Poor Hikage she was too dizy with the airplane and now with the waves. Later they hike through a small jungle which reminds me of my days especially the mangroves trees Kazuho is a cool teacher btw. They kayaked and of course Komari and Hotaru got stuck with a mangrove. That was funny. 220https://ur.com/CmeAK37.png The rest of that day and journey just made me nostalgic lmao. During the third day they convince Aoi to act like a tour guide and as I said they finally played badminton together they found weird sand at the beach and during the night the stars were beautiful I can say it was the climax of the movie with all that beauty and relaxing experience. 220https://ur.com/P2J5LeL.png And the final day was the goodbye day. Renge was not able to find dolphins but drew a lot of stuff and a firstgrade elementary student draws better than I do lmao. The drawings were actually good and beautiful with only crayons. The last drawing made me emotionlal: Hatsumi and Aoi together. Dont tell anyone that Non Non Biyori made me emotional. Hatsumi was building a really good friendship with Aoi. Its sad when you have to go I relate to that so much. I had even ended up crying like Hatsumi when I had trips like that. It was not a sayounara moment anymore it was more a see you next time moment. Made me happy again. 220https://ur.com/DKJ1q94.png 220https://ur.com/J10mRcF.png The movie after all was Non non biyori pinnacle really beautiful and gave us a little story of friendship and companionship. I really wish I could spend my days as a child with them theyre funny and entertaining. Its no masterpiece but it was what I needed: a confy and relaxing 1 hour of watching cute girls doing cute things: vacation edition 400https://ur.com/hf8dOiJ.png
