The recently-acquired-by-ADV series of short stories called 5 Centimeters Per Second is next on my list of what to see. By the same person who made The Place Promised in our Early Days (which I love) and Voices of a Distant Star (which I should get from Netflix today), 5 Centimeters Per Second may be best described by it’s subtitle: “A chain of short stories about their distance” and is about, perhaps not surprisingly, a series of stories about a pair of people separated by distance and how it impacts those characters.
Given that I liked Placed Promised and I’ll surprised if I don’t like Voices, it’s a shame this isn’t coming to DVD until December. ADV is screening it at Anime Expo, and hopefully they’ll give it the same treatment at Otakon.
