This movie is a visual treat from beginning to end. Talking about this movie in this forum and others, I have advocated that if you are a fan of animation as an art form, then this movie is a must-watch.

The story of this movie didn't connect with me very much, but speaking to others, it was very impactful to them. So, your engagement with the story seems to vary a lot from person to person.

I chose a clip of this road trip from the movie because this stretch of the movie was my absolute favorite. There are tons of great character moments that happen because these different characters with their own complexities are all jammed into one car together. This portion of the movie also has several moments in which the story slows down, lingering on scenes here and there. This is a nice contrast to most of the rest of the movie which is very tense and has lots of action (Suzume runs a lot, it must be nice to have that much stamina).

I had debated choosing a grand action sequence as a clip, but when I remember this movie, its this stretch of relative calm that I remember the most. A lot of the action sequences have pretty big story spoilers as well that I wanted to try to avoid.

Had this in my queue for quite some time, and finally managed to watch it yesterday night.

Absolutely loved it, story included. The ending felt nice, even if it kind of introduced a paradox.

Glad you enjoyed it!
