I got this anime today, and just finished watching it. I had never seen it before, and I rather enjoyed it, except for the end. spoiler[I felt the end was bittersweet, which often seems to occur in anime. So, sometime in the future Makoto and Chiaki are going to meet up, I assume ? But it would seem to me that he was from pretty far in the future...so she will be 80 when they see each other again ? His future sounded pretty crappy too, with no baseball or rivers or a sky...I was hoping he would just stay there, seeing how his time seemed to be such a drag. Oh well, I had heard most Japanese people seem to prefer bittersweet endings. Still, it was a decent anime. As mentioned in the review a while back, some plot points were left out, the paintings significance and such.] Anyone else just seen it for the first time ? What did you think of it ?

I don't agree. spoiler[I thought it was more of a Misato Shinji like relationship where it was better for Makoto to have love and to have lost than to have never loved at all.]

I watched it last night with my mom and dad and we all enjoyed it. Including what you didn't like.
