More Touko here than in whole manga so far. It's a little odd. nefertiti said: About movie I think it'll consist of some short stories of Konoha. I don't think so. |

Kobato, ganbarimasu! Wait.. that's not right. I liked this. It was an interesting concept. A boy that writes stories for a girl to eat as snacks. I'll watch the movie. |

Looks really good, will definitely be watching!! And it's Miyu!!!! Ever since Asura Cryin' and Cross Game I'm a total Miyu Irino fanboy. So just for that I'll be watching. But, the story looks really cool as well. I really like how she was in the middle of the story, and the story was animated. And, the art is quite nice as well. I am looking forward to this movie, can't wait...Urahara Out!! |

That was interesting and refreshing. The BGM is really good too. I have a feeling the OST will be awesome (if they ever release one :P). |

I've been looking forward to this movie for a while now. The plot is honestly a bit strange, with an even more strange girl with a lively imagination. Her cute appearance makes up for it, though. It reminds me of this children's book I once read. It was a story in a story. (fourth wall) The pet of the actual writer wanted to write a book that would appeal to everyone, also in the literal way, thus, he decided to bake a book. Instead of paper pages, he used edible paper, and the ink was replaced by chocolate sauce. Really, when I read that as a kid, I thought it was a brilliant idea, heh. |

Very much enjoyed. What could possibly drive a person to be so obsessed and engrossed into literature that they would be compelled to eat the paper it's printed on?? Is this a lighthearted slice-of-life, school, romance, or will there be tragedy and drama?? Hmm... time will tell. (Yes I realize it's listed as Romance, Mystery, Drama...) :P Either way, I Look forward to seeing just how this story unfolds... |

This preview was way too light-hearted compared to the original story, liked it anyway. Though I hope the movie is a proper adaptation of the light novel and this preview was comedy just for the heck of it. |

Wow she actually eats the pages, no matter how good a story is no way it takes like food and I don't think this is healthy either. Anyway this might be one of these feel good anime like Natsume and Spice and Wolf (Season 1); I look forward to it. |

This was actually quite good. The possibilities are quite limitless, but the aspect that she loves romance is a plus. With such a quirky outlook, she is also very cute. |

I really enjoyed this short movie, it was funny, light and refreshing. I liked how it brought us to travel from one story to another, all connected by her long speech. She really was trying to share her passion for books by comparing the tone of each one with the taste of food. I hope there will be a full lenght series of this movie, because this is really promising. |

I loved this 15 minute masterpiece The female main character acted so refreshingly cute + Kobato's voice *heart* but I think eating books is unhealthy XD |

Although it was short I really liked it! I wish it was more like that, ecchi is so overrated and selling too much for its good. One thing that caught my attention is this, I love Ivan! I have most of his books and I have to say it's just like Touko explains it. Like when she mentions feelings of eagerness and sadness to wards being in love. It really is like that, I know I read them. Anyways, I really like her a lot mainly because she is the only one who can eat pages from books and be able to feel it and how it tastes like. It is rather a unique interesting skill no one female has. They showed rather well Zinaida from one of Ivan's stories although it was ultimately a sad end but most of the stories end love in tragedy in many forms. I also liked Touko's adventures in the watermelon world of Konoha's story, which BTW in 50 minutes was way too short to write it properly. Mainly the ice cream being funny jelly fish. At the end I liked the suggestion box. It showed a rather promising wish in literature format to come true, that of love. Masterpiece this is! |

Yumekichi11 said: I really like her a lot mainly because she is the only one who can eat pages from books and be able to feel it and how it tastes like. I agree, she's a unique character. It's funny how she could relate the content of the stories that she read to food and drinks. |

I watched this after the OVA and the movie, and it just reminded me that no where did they explain the origin of the 'Literature Girl'. But then again the movie was of book 5 so I guess that makes sense, or not if you know what I mean. |

Cute addition to the movie. It's actually decent as a stand-alone OVA too! ^^ I guess the order to watching this series is: 3 OVAS -> Movie -> This? Idk, I haven't watched the movie yet. 8/10 is my overall score. |

I watch this last of all, and a question came to me, how could she Touka knows the taste of those drinks/foods if she couldn't taste them as shown in the first episode of Memoire? If any kind soul could leave the answer on my wall/PM me. |

I thought it looked very nice, and had some promise to whatever is associated with it, but there just wasn't that much there for me. I guess I need to explore this more. |
