    This is genuinely the most beautiful CalArts film I have yet seen, and it not only made me feel nostalgic, but brought a tear to my eye, and only when I finished watching was that I noticed how this film had made me feel, its a feeling a cant quite fully describe however. Congratulations :)

    Holy shit the fact this has less than 4k views feels CRIMINAL.? this made me tear up, I have simaler fears every day, I never know what's gonna happen next, I'm 17, I'm gonna be an adult soon, small in the grand scheme of things but a big step for someone who isn't ready, I don't have a job or a license yet, when I'm 18 I'm gonna go to cosmetology school for tattoo work, and I'm extremely nervous seeing I grew up sheltered, this made me feel a little better, I hope it gets the attention it deserves. This feels like a movie that'd make me bawl my eyes out for days after. The sound, the animation, the message, I hope everyone that sees this gets just inspired as I have, and I hope that more people can see this and feel that. I may not have worded this all correctly, but just genuinely, I enjoyed this. Short, but one of my new favorite shorts on youtube, it's adorable, and you got a new subscriber^^ (ps, the song is beautiful, it has that clean feeling to it like a studio ghibli movie, I'm gonna tear up again writing this gosh- 💜)

    Another beautiful short film Wancii! You should be really proud of yourself and the art and animations you've made! You should be also proud of how impactful it has been so far to so many people. I wish my graduation was as sweet as Nonoko and Haro's. I wish you the best of luck with your future projects and hope they let your spark shine even brighter! ✨
    (Also, couldn't help but feel like 2:49 - 2:56 was inspired by the Ghibli flm Howl's Moving Castle, where Howl and Sofie fly across to the bakery. Such a heart warming scene, and my personal favourite moment in your short film!)
