This movie is just mediocre. How does it get so much praise?

where the fuck do you download this in 1080p

That's Makoto Shinkai for you. His polish fuckboi is saving his ass with pretty visuals to make up for a mediocre direction. Of course plebs will love it.

Good marketing and dedicated shills in Facebook and .com companies

>>150611961
well, other animes like the jump ones have an even great marketing and don't even make to the top 100 on the rankings

When you market your movie as "TOP SELLING NON-MIYAZAKI ANIME FILM" to the west, it's gonna generate a lot of hype. That's elite-tier marketing

>beautiful background
>cute heroines
>gender bender
>healing their PTSD (caused by the 2011/recent earthquakes)
>J-Pop
Not that hard to understand.

It didn't get its bulk of money from the west or even China. The money is homegrown thanks to the Toho media blitz. They marketed the movie greatly and they reaped the benefits. The movie being unoffensive made the success even better.

You'd be surprised how many people wank to Miyazaki films in the west. So when they hear that non-Miyazaki film pulled similar numbers, their probably gonna watch it and wank to it also.

Agreed

Looks like yet another generic romance anime film with a TWIST.
