Different viewers gave different evaluations of the same movie, just as a thousand readers saw a thousand Hamlets.
Even the most perfect film would have flaws in the eyes of certain nitpicking viewers and be stamped with a huge bad review.
But that was simply how the world worked.
Making everyone satisfied was fundamentally impossible.
Koro's film industry had only just begun, and audiences filled with novelty were extremely tolerant of it. At any rate, Anno had not heard many negative reviews of the two films Shinkai Seiko had made.
The dwarves had the most opinions, since most of them had little interest in human tales of love and romance.
Anno preferred Jiang Wan and Gu Xi's story.
They exchanged each other's lives, crossed through time, and finally met.
Wasn't this exactly the kind of story that existed only in girls' imaginations?
If possible, Anno wanted an experience like that too. It would be even better if the other person were a girl from a Longevity Race, so the two of them could keep each other company for a very, very long time.
Thinking of this, the elf girl smiled foolishly.
Aurora noticed Anno's increasingly strange smile and shook her head with a smile. Mortals' thoughts were always difficult to fathom.
Fortunately, Anno only let her imagination run wild for a few minutes before suddenly coming back to her senses and casting aside the thoughts that had already begun planning how they would live together.
She raised her head to look at the night sky. Two bright white moons stood out with particular clarity in the crystalline starry sky.
"It's so late already."
Anno stretched lazily.
Aurora gazed at the bright moon for a long time, as though she wanted to see something in it.
What was she longing for?
