Honestly, I have only seen this film twice in my life. I first watched it in 2012 and then later this year. The plot holds up very well over time as it does not rely on animation trick, gimmicks, or tries to do anything more than what I perceive it should.It's about a girl who was going to die because she was being negligent in her life, and through circumstances learns that she can jump through time.What I really liked about this film is that even though the person had super powers, it was more of a curse as life as more of an ebb and flow to it. So taking what seems as a good opportunity might take away something that could have been even better.The animation on the piece was really good for the time; there are clearly sections where dialogue was more important than the animation so they did cut back in quality during those times. But it does not get in the way at all and there are some scenes that are ageless.This is a very heart-full movie and not to be cliché, but I am a man that typically does not cry and this movie has managed to get me to cry both times I watched it, as it is a really well scripted movie.

The main character is a high school girl named Makoto. She get ability of time slip. She use this ability for her personal things. Though she thinks no one know her time travel, Chiaki who is Makoto's friends becomes aware. This is the story of Makoto's development through time leap.Comical story development and tempo makes film fresh. However, Makoto's using time leap is too trifling and there are unreasonableness and contradiction of time leap. Therefore, some feel some dissatisfaction, I think.This animation movie has the 10th anniversary since release. Now, Toki kake café opens for a limited period, so there are deep-rooted fans. I like Makoto's freshness and energy. Makoto's voice is not only cheerful but also silly, so I was pleased. This film give me positive feeling.

This is Japanese animation film. A girl has ability to leap time and she back in time to change the past. Kazuko is a high school student girl. She has ability to leap time. She comes to use the ability when she wants it. So she backs in time to save people with the ability. Her friends Kazuo and Goro do not believe her story. One day she know Kazuo's secret and she has to make miserable decision.I love this story. Kazuko is very tough to do. The ending is not happy but I feel something warm in it. Leaping time is scientific but there is love term. I am sure you enjoy this film.

THE GIRL WHO LEAPT THROUGH TIME is wholeheartedly worth a watch for its beautiful animation and nice character design (this coming from a not-very-into-anime person). It's a very pretty film. And for most of its runtime, there's a great lighthearted tone and polished comic sensibility that make things very enjoyable. But things fall apart in the last 30 minutes or so where the tone drastically shifts and everything loses steam. GIRL works best when it's dabbling in teen movie fare, where it's charms are inherent. I couldn't help but be disappointed by the ending, which feels rather disparate from everything that came before it.6/10
