Place Promised in Our Early Days / Voices of a Distant Star Twin Pack - Standard DVD

A lovely title from Makoto Shinkai. The reversible cover is a nice touch.My only complaint is that it arrived wrapped but rattling. The disc holder is broken so there's nothing keeping the disc secure. Luckily bluray discs have an anti scratch coating and it has yet to suffer any so the disc is fine.Other then that a quality product for Makoto Shinkai fans!

Film was a 6/10 the second movie though, the bonus short film is just...... 1/10 soooo bad and I love anime but jeeeeez, I appreciate old anime and stiff but this is so bad and doesn't make sense either.Came in good condition and packaging though

This film didn't engage me as much as the many other Jpanese films I've seen and the extra short film may be an old classic or something but I doubt I'd ever watch it again.

Fantastic value for the money & looks good - not used yet as it was bought as a Christmas Present - but I still highly recommend this product.

Place Promised in Our Early Days great movieVoices of a Distant Star a little less good but see it as an extra

Christmas present 😁

Great film

This is a fantastic set - especially as Voices of a Distant Star is fairly hard to come by, beautiful presented and animated this should be required watching for any anime fan, especially if you have seen the recent 'Your Name'.Place Promised in Our Early DaysThis is a long, interesting film set in a parallel world where north and south Japan were created at the end of WW2 (think like Korea) and about the steady drive to war focusing on three protagonists. The film is stunning beautiful and thoughtful but...its not quite there. The story gets confused between the large conflict driven story and the character driven story and the long running length is a hindrance rather then a help. Its still a great movie mind, just requires maybe a second watch to take it all in.Voices of a Distant StarA perfect 20(ish) minute movie. Originally entirely made by the director on his own PC with generic PC kit and him and his wife doing all the voices this is simply amazing. I maintain this is one of the finest short films (especially in the SciFi sector) ever made and brought this set to have this on blue ray. Enjoy it, its special.
