If you just watch the movie, it's a decent watch. However if you read the LN and compare the two, anime and the LN, I don't know where to begin at how bad the adaptation to the source material was. Important scenes were cut, even a couple of important characters weren't shown. The aftermath, the female lead character's life in between those few years of gap. The development between characters, the start and the ending. EVERYTHING was rushed.... unfortunately the LN had way much more potential than the anime even barely touched....

ye I felt that in the movie too, like it feels that there wasn't enough substance presented to us to justify the love and bond between them...

The movie adaptation did not do the light novel any remote form of justice, it completely tossed two characters to the side and changed multiple important scenes OR cut them out entirely. It skimped out on the themes present in the light novel and essentially made the film feel like a Makoto Shinkai homework meme with "copy my homework but don't make it look the same" type thing.

I'd highly recommend reading the light novel, it's far more expressive and grounded. The one good thing about the movie was the music, Finale by Eill was amazing.

What about Manga is this the same case with it too??

@m0rt14k3 Haven't read its manga adaptation so can't say.

Well you know it's bad when they cut off entire characters, important characters that actually were the reason for our Protagonist to go alone.... completely ruined the development between our the female lead character and other side characters....changed the reason why she wanted to go inside, change the way they fall for each other.....oh if anything I should give credit to the anime is ofcourse the animation, also maybe her reason which was changed but ofcourse changing the main reason had many more related things changed so I've mixed feelings and lastly they did add a bit of a backstory for her grandfather. Other than these, everything else is.... I'll just be honest, Ruined and utterly disappointing.

I'm a bit puzzled I feel that the film was better than the LN other than the added afterward which I appreciate and expansion given to Koharu. Past that I didn't see anything added that the movie didn't also do and better. Like their meeting at the train platform and the umbrella, much better introduction for the pair.

Yes there were parts that LN did better for example like depth of his guilt for what happened to his sister, while in movie it was said that

also meeting

As mentioned before they cut Koharu & Shouhei, imo Shouhei was mentioned enough, as for koharu I can understand spite, but still feel that its better that they cut the deliquent story.
But movie wasn't definetly bad as many LN readers mentioned here. Umbrella scene was better meet up point than

I also found the LN reason that she woudn't enter tunnel worse from my take of the movie, Im aware that this might be just deduction but

phone messages were definetly a better option than leaving message in bottle and

LN takes W in aftermatch, 4-5 pages of

I honestly like both, slightly more favorable towards the movie.

Kinda funny how you are basically asking people to tell you what they forgot to adapt from the LN in the LN page and people are replying like "yeah they forgot to adapt some stuff" and don't elaborate on that.

Thankfully people like @Riax_ exist, and some of the things they said could have been in the film and would make it have more sense.

I mean

, another thing that should have been in the movie

, there's also the fact that

. Also I know there is this whole Japanese people vanishing thing, but how come a father doesn't care if his own son disappears after so long? And there isn't even a mention to that.

The movie was a very rushed adaptation!!
But the LN has many big paras which doesn't add anything to story and it's very boring to read. So I won't recommend the LN too! But I only read around 40-50%, so I won't say how the ending is in LN but till where I read, it was pretty boring and if the LN has the same ending/climax as the movie then I don't have to bother with it as I didn't like how the story progressed.

@eleven_exists well, I read many novels with very 'big' paragraphs lol, I am used to it, so big paragraphs aren't really the problem but they having no importance to the story or even novel sometimes is the problem tbh. In fact, I love info dumps yk, coz they give so much information but that isn't the case here.

Well anyway, I didn't like how the story progressed, even the ending, it could have been done a lot better I feel, but looks like a number people liked it, so it's just my opinion on it.

Wbu, did u enjoy it, the movie or the novel, any?

Btw, huge fan of pompo movie and 86 (anime & LN) !

@VardhanD i love the light novel but the movie is so shit lol
found out about pompo because same studio as tunnel to summer and it just goes to show how deadlines can affect how good a production is. pompo had a couple years if i'm correct and it's amazingly animated with really good directional choices and quality. i'm willing to bet tunnel to summer didn't even have 3/4 of a year judging by a few factors
86 is goated, i need to get back on reading it lol

@eleven_exists Same here! I loved how well animated and directed pompo was! That's y I was really looking forward to the tunnel to summer movie... But it was such a disappointed, it was so rushed, can't believe it's made by the same studio which made pompo.

Yeah, should continue reading 86...read till vol 8 iirc. Looking forward to reading the next vols! (86 is soo damn well written!)
