Hmmm, I remember reading this at one point and I thought it was rather short, too short to make into a whole movie. Oh well, still plan to see it if I can!

I don't read many manga one shots but I read this on someone's recommendation and it is absolutely wonderful. I never thought this story would be animated.

With this news and the news about more Natsume it might be more happy news I can take. Surprised

I'm noticing the exact same team that is doing Natsume is working on this one. My guess is that they plan to bundle this movie with the Natsume third season when they release it on DVD/Blu-ray in Japan.

It is very similar in tone to Natsume. Very poignant and beautiful little story, and yes, very short. I can't see the running time being over 45 minutes given the source material.

I love this manga so much!!!!!!!!!

Guess this will be released as an OVA, since the manga was very short (and tearjerking)
