60. The Girl Who Leapt through Time

I feel like this might've been one of the first non-Ghibli anime movies I watched? Possibly even the first, period? Regardless, it was a long time ago, so my memory of it isn't that clear. I do certainly remember it being good though! The time leap premise is a ton of fun, and it's cool how it's all used to accomplish something so trivial. Basically anything with time travel appeals to me, so that's a big plus for the movie. Plus Makoto is a great, likable MC. I feel like I didn't like the more serious parts at the end quite as much (I think there was some guy affiliated with the time bureau or whatever who was lame...?), but the whole thing was definitely a lot of fun. I can't remember many of the specifics, just Makoto doing silly things and some great animation throughout. Honestly, I think it maybe deserves to be higher, I'm just not quite sure how much the later stuff actually hurt it for me. This would be something cool to rewatch someday, maybe with a non-anime fan, since I can see it appealing to pretty much everyone.
