Note: This review is based entirely on my personal opinion and viewing experience.

Movies:

• Summer Ghost (2021)
• Typhoon Noruda (2015)
• Sing a Bit of Harmony (2021)

Plot:

Summer Ghost:

The story follows three teenagers who meet during summer to search for a mysterious ghost known as the Summer Ghost. As they get closer to finding the truth, they also start facing their own personal struggles. It's a short movie, but there's more to it than just a ghost story.


Typhoon Noruda:

Set in a school during a powerful typhoon, the story follows two childhood friends whose relationship has become complicated. Things take an unexpected turn when they encounter a mysterious girl named Noruda. It's a mix of friendship, mystery and supernatural events.

Sing a Bit of Harmony:

What happens when an AI girl suddenly joins your school and starts trying to make everyone happy through songs?

The story follows Shion, a mysterious transfer student who quickly becomes popular because of her cheerful personality. However, there's something unusual about her, and her presence slowly changes the lives of the people around her.

My Thoughts:

Honestly, all three movies offer something different, and that's what makes this little collection interesting.

Summer Ghost was probably the most emotional one for me. Despite its short runtime, it manages to explore some serious themes and leaves you with something to think about. I also really liked its art style and atmosphere. Its only 40min. so please watch this

Typhoon Noruda had an interesting concept and beautiful visuals. However, I felt like the story was a little too short. Some parts could have been explored more, especially the characters and their relationship.

Sing a Bit of Harmony was probably the most fun to watch. Shion's cheerful personality, the comedy and the musical moments make it a really enjoyable experience. The story also has some surprisingly emotional moments.

Overall, none of these movies are perfect, but each has its own charm. If you're looking for something different from the usual anime series, I'd say give them a try.
