Do you seriously think this is that good?

Well, firstly I have to say that perhaps the American audiences were not exposed to too many Japanese anime. For one, I think this animated movie has been over-hyped by the American public. Frankly, I grew up watching anime and think this is one of the most mediocre. Many other anime have better story, graphics, character-developments and following. If you ask enough Asians about this movie, they would probably have the same comment. This is seriously not as good as you really think.
