Animation Film Review:The Girl Who Leapt Through Time

Do you like animated or fiction movies? Perhaps you like both of them, so you shouldn't miss "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time". The film was shown on 15/07/2006 in Japan, and it won a lot of awards, such as (Award of the Japanese Academy) Best Animation film in 2007.

It is about a high school girl, Mokoto Konno, who accidentally has the capability to leap through time. Firstly, she is in a  panic and goes to ask her auntie, who had had that experience before, for help. After that she embraced the new ability, and she starts to use it to solve her problems.

Mokoto has two best friends, they like playing baseball after school.One day because Gongjie ( one of Mokoto's best friends) is absent, the relationship between the three friends changes, but it isn't what she wants. How can she manange the situation? What is she going to do?


This film took me back to my teenage period and made me think a lot. If you could go back to your past, what would you want to change? " Time waits for no one" This saying comes out several times, and my understanding of this sentence is that people shouldn't always think about the past. If you can't change something, just face up to it.
