I enjoyed seeing Kiko Mizuhara (from Norwegian Wood) again and i thought Erika Sawajiri gave a brave and believable performance. My main complaint is that it felt a bit too long and there were perhaps too many endings. I would still definitely recommend it.

Great to hear. Somehow, I don't see this one making it to the US on Blu-ray...
