No. 1 "Sumikko Gurashi: The Movie Sumikko Gurashi: The Storybook and the Secret Book" Impressions
The new character, a chick, was the cutest. I was sad when Sumikko and her friends were sucked into the first scene, but I was moved when everyone helped her out when she got lonely.

All of them were interesting! I like the lizard because it is cute. I want to catch fish and play with them. I like the story about Little Red Riding Hood the best, but I felt sorry for her. It made me cry.

I tried not to cry in front of the cute Sumiko, but it was no use. I was glad to see Sumiko's kindness.

No. 2 "After Sunset" Impressions
The images are very beautiful. The story had a good ending and contained contents and questions that were different from existing works. It made me wonder what would happen to the characters after the film" (29 yrs old, female)

"I was paying attention to how the film ended because it was a difficult subject. I was satisfied and a little relieved. I think the highlight of the film is that child-rearing is done by the whole community" (54 yrs old, male)

A woman who was adopted by a family in a rural area in the U.S. "It was very realistic, like a documentary, as if there was actually a person there. I think we need to create a system to prevent people like her from being born through adoption" (55 yrs old, male)

No. 3 "Re: Zero kara Hajimete Isekai Seikatsu Hyoketsu no Kizuna" comment
I was glad that by focusing on the heroine, we were able to see her inner life and encounters with spirits that were not depicted in the TV series, as well as stories from the past.

The pictures are very beautiful and Emilia's cuteness and beauty came through very well. The bond between Emilia and the spirits was impressive and made me cry more than I expected" (19 yrs old, male).

I had been following the TV anime version, but I was moved when I found out about the past that had not been revealed. I like the main character's toughness and consideration for others" (20 yrs old, male)
