I opened an account to write this review, and to be honest I find it laughable that people who consider themselves visual or unable to properly decipher abstract art feel the need to write on what they do not know. I think a persons inability to stay entertained during Wonder is directly related to the overstimulation that most anime provides. Obviously ignoring that this is not like other anime, the main indication is that it is done completely by hand, no CGI or cutting edge tech production to engage your overly stimulated brain.
The only think that can be seen in its merits, which lie
...
in the attention to detail. Drawn by hand every aspect of the short film is patiently actualized in a lucid manor. Over time a story forms, its nothing with a plot but a story of pictures that have the potential to convey multiple topics, whichever your mind finds.
The forms themselves aren't particularly original I'll admit however, it is the gestures and movements that make it so incredible for me. I've seen this film a few times now, forgetting then rediscovering it, each time I walk away with something new, be it new details I didn't realize or a new feeling if attached to the story. And in my option... that is no small feat for any media.
Highly underrated as it may be, do I think it is a masterpiece? No. But really, what do you have to lose?
