If you like bittersweet teen romances like I Want to Eat Your Pancreas and Your Lie in April, then Even If This Love Disappears Tonight may appeal to you, but this one is firmly middling in its genre due to its weak setup. This is definitely one of those stories where the strength of the concept is meant to override the flaws in the execution and storytelling, but the hurdles were too steep for me this time. Even if it were to disappear from my memory tonight, I won't be making an effort to remember this one.

The start of the movie greatly hints on what eventually happens later in the movie, which is something that I didn't really like but I guess that's what made me want to continue watching it even more. And with how Toru and Maori's relationship started, you'd think it's a typical "fake dating" trope, but in my opinion, it wasn't, their chemistry didn't feel forced and it really looked like they enjoyed each other's company. It was painful still, because for Maori, she was meeting this stranger for the first time everyday and she always had to put up a front. The part that I really liked was from the point when Toru found out about her illness, because at this point, Toru had actually fallen in love with Maori and despite knowing that she forgets him everyday, he was determined to make her everyday fun. One of my favorite lines in this movie was when Toru was talking to his sister about Maori, when he said "When there are fun things written in her diary, it would be nice if when she reads it, she'd be able to look forward to everyday, even if just for a bit.", my heart hurt a bit when I heard him say that but at the same time, I felt so much respect for this character. Each day (hehe) - no matter how difficult, no matter what monsters our dreams remake in the night - still exists as its own entity. Even separated from the past and the future, the present and the stories and relationships between us (hi El, if you're reading this - I love you) carry so much weight. And the good memories we make, the footprints we leave on the sand, will weather against the waves, but never fully wash away. Hidden among Yen Press’s large collection of light novels are the occasional standalone novels, stories that aren’t part of a series or filled with anime-inspired illustrations. One such title is author Misaki Ichijo’s debut work: Even If This Love Disappears Tonight, which I’m here to take a look at today. Will it delight? Let’s find out! COVER Corporation Announces hololive English VTuber Gawr Gura Collaboration with Sendai Umino-Mori AquariumToru and Maori's reasons for deciding to fake-date each other are similarly flimsy. Usually, the couple would face some kind of negative outcome if they don't agree to fake-date, but here there's nothing of the sort to justify the trope. Toru agrees to this convoluted setup without question because he's just nice and accepting. Even though the novel wastes no time in describing Maori as beautiful, it also makes pains to convey that Toru is not the shallow kind of guy who lets her looks influence his decision. Even after she explains her motivation to try something new in life, there's no indication of why she found him worthy of trust as a stranger, or even sees him as physically attractive. It fits with the common trope of pure love transcending superficial attraction, but in this case the couple has such little chemistry that it makes for a terribly boring romance. Tooru agrees to these conditions, assuming at first that Maori simply wants to enjoy pretend dating and has reasons of her own for having a fake boyfriend. The two begin spending their days together after school and our protagonist soon realises he has fallen for Maori and works up the courage to tell her, but the truth behind Maori setting the rules she did is revealed and shatters Tooru’s world. The story is wonderful and the direction does justice its beauty. While the story is thoroughly dramatic, neither the characters nor the dialogues let you disengage because of it. The portrayal balances out the story perfectly. A very neat showcase indeed!

Adapted from the novel “Konya, Sekai Kara Kono Koi ga Kietemo” (今夜、世界からこの恋が消えても) by Ichijo Misaki (一条岬). Saya memiliki amnesia anterograde, dan saya lupa hal -hal ketika saya tidur di malam hari. Segala sesuatu yang terjadi dalam sehari”. Kenangan dan pengalamannya diatur ulang setiap hari, dan dia menuliskan peristiwa hari itu dalam buku harian dan bangun pagi -pagi untuk meninjau mereka agar ingatannya tetap hidup. Tooru dikhususkan untuk membawakannya sebanyak mungkin kebahagiaan. Namun, kehidupan sehari -hari seperti itu tidak bertahan lama. Apa “rencana” yang telah dirancang Tooru untuk melindungi kebahagiaan Maori? Klimaks yang mengamuk dan kelembutan yang rapuh akan membungkus dunia dengan air mata hangat sekali lagi. The story explores whether Maori, a person who couldn't form memories, could develop romantic feelings. It wasn't just a love story but also a tale of friendship and family. The side story was also good. Tooru's father, a frustrated writer, and his sister Sanae, a novelist, added depth to the narrative. And despite its brevity, the friendship between Tooru and Shimokawa was heartwarming, as was the friendship between Maori's best friend, Izumi Wataya, and Tooru.Untuk menghentikan teman -teman sekelasnya dari menggertaknya, protagonis, Kamiya Tooru, membuat pengakuan palsu kepada seorang gadis di kelasnya, Hino Maori. Meskipun dia tahu bahwa pengakuan itu bohong, Maori mengatakan ya dengan tiga aturan: “Jangan bicara padaku sampai sepulang sekolah,”“Jauhkan komunikasi singkat,” dan “jangan jatuh cinta satu sama lain”. Keduanya berjanji untuk tidak jatuh cinta, tetapi ketika mereka saling mengenal, mereka mendapati diri mereka tertarik satu sama lain. Ketika Tooru akhirnya tidak bisa menahan perasaannya, kata -kata Maori tidak terduga.

This review probably doesn't make much sense (I apologize), but the story itself is confusing to explain. Throughout the book, the pov switches between the two of them, and there are many timeskips, which usually really bothers me because it makes the story so much more confusing, but in this story, it works because it explains why certain events happened the way they did.Japanese people seem to know how to make something really delicate , especially when it comes to romance films. Again, this is another film that makes my heart fly up with happiness and then tears fall down heavily. It is a memorable experience. A movie about treasuring each day no matter what. I hope I'm not too biased in writing this review just because I'm a fan of Micchi (Michieda Shunsuke) but I just think that this movie is really good. Even just from watching the trailer, it has greatly piqued my interest. At first, the plot reminded me of the series One Week Friends, where the girl also had amnesia, except her memories reset each week instead. Cliché circumstances then allow her to meet Tooru Kamiya, who is the other protagonist of this story. Most of the story is told from his point of view (it changes between the two of them) and we learn that he's from a poor family, and has some family issues of his own. The story then follows the two of them navigating their life as a (fake!!) couple, but with a catch; Hino doesn't remember anything she does with Tooru, and falls in love with him slowly, each day they spend together. i first read this book because the movie adaptation is played by micchi and rikoㅡand i ended up loving this! As for the characters, they are very well portrayed by the actor and actresses. The female lead looks like most of the time (90%)"Momo of Twice" and (on some angle)"Mina of twice". I also like how the characters has only a few clothing to use for the movie. As it emulates the realistic way of how people dress up on multiple times when seeing with friends and acquitances.
