The secrets that is confined between both series is quite a bit reminiscent of each other. Granted, these secrets can truly be understood once one completed such long journeys.

They say that love can topple mountains, destroy towns, flood cities, and brave the tests of time. It's really astonishing to witness what the bond between two people can do and both these series portray such imagery that it's very perfect!

Sometimes, things run deeper than what they appear to be. A time traveler whose mission is to save a girl? A person who sees flags that determine the fate of the people around him? Both seem to be shallow at first glance, but that is because something else runs beneath them...

Promises, promises, promises. Perhaps the greatest and the worst thing regarding the common promise of "I shall return" is that time is truly limited and humans will inevitably die of old age. Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku wo deals with the pain of having to lose friends, but it always has that sliver of hope that you will meet them again. In Island... well, it is much, much, more.

To those seeing this recommendation, I ask thee to be wary as this recommendation is better seen when you have at least completed one of the anime being recommended. Time is truly a mighty adversary to those who dare violate its principles, and the results might be either sweet or catastrophic should one succeed or fail. The nostalgic concept of time is differently portrayed in each series, but essence remains unchanged. Both series try to challenge the flow of time and yield results that could regarded as the opposite of the other.

Oh, the two share such poetic premise of a seemingly lost man fatefully meeting a girl in a place that represents their entire relationship: one a clock tower, the other in an island shoreline. While the two have different settings, one in wartime and the other in modern era, the development is surely reminiscent to each other. Moreover, both share the prospect of romance that is bound to brave even the harshest waves of time and coincidence.
