A good portrayal of the struggles of a handicapped child, good portrayal of children as a whole.
Well paced, well directed, most importantly: Well acted.

The main heroine is basically a shonen protagonist in a little girls body, she's full of spirit and guts. So much fire in such a frail vessel. Like other movies with a disability theme there are characters that give the mc a hard time, but realistically come to terms in their own way with accepting or turning away from such differences.

As far as anime movies go involving disability, this is one of the better films, it's not too lengthy, it's ... not self-indulgent in it's material, it doesn't waste your time.

Neat, bittersweet little movie.

𝗔 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗸𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲, and the lack of Psycho-GTS cliche is appreciated.
(𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗚𝗧𝗦 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼.)

Without Spoilers i'll say: 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 "𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴" but as it goes on it's less funny, and more repetitive, formulaic, predictable.

Thus the title is held back at times by the fact that the Author seems to really subscribe to 𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐚 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 so the punchlines and situations mainly are limited & or focused to revolve around that one aesthetic, for better and worse. Hence the title. Very little variety in the material.


𝘃𝘀 𝗞𝗼𝗻𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗯𝗮, 𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗕𝗼𝘆 𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗣𝘂𝗻𝗸, which are legit funny ecchis because their gags have variety, because the core of the material isn't one single fetish hijacking the materials direction.

𝗙𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀:
• Art is average initially. The Author is definitely improving their style as time passes. So props to them for that.✅ Some of the enemies later on are surprisingly well designed, fun designs, cool designs, and most of the interior set pieces throughout the chapters are decently drawn. ✅


• Action panels are fine, Chapters 1's Remake is the best action sequence so far and that's because it's a recent revise from the Author's current art skills, again props to them for that.✅


• 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲: But the issue here is, 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 or ironic, It's blatant macrophile pandering, and to top it off, the execution is in no way clever, the fanservice plus Oriko's embarassment doesn't always equal funny, just cringe. ⛔


• Unfortunately, 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗧𝗦 𝗮𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗴𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗵, hence the title. And because the most creativity they do with it is dress her up in different clothes while gigantic to pander. The giant girl novelty very quickly wears out.

• Turns the manga into, again, a 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘆, the gigantism isn't a vehicle for the comedy, the giganstism is the conmedy a lot of the time, and it's contrvied. But so many times you can get "𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗱𝘇𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘀𝘀" for the 170th time, before it gets old.

• Another plus, as i've said, this is this is not the usual GTS-Psycho territory that that community is known for and no the manga doesn't waste time getting to the Giant girl stuff- so much so, 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹 with it, or 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗰𝗰𝗵𝗶 𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲𝗱.

• Without spoilers, the side & minor characters and story overall are about as interesting as a storyline in your average Hentai.⛔




• Hence, this would've better off as a full on comedy Doujinshi, thus it can go all the way with it's macrophile pandering and 𝗯𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗖𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗟𝗬 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲, the story and it's comedy potential otherwise feels held back by the fetish niche itself, limited. ⛔

Doesn't break new ground that hasn't been tread already by a previous GTS take.


𝟒/𝟏𝟎 I know there are types who will be into this regardless.
But for the general public? 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝


If you want to waste time on something poorly written but it's entertaining, good action, funny at times, and has some heart, just go read 𝗕𝗼𝗸𝘂 𝗡𝗼 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗼.

𝗜𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝗦 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗸, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹, I recommend:
• 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗼 𝟭/𝟭𝟬 (If you can find the full volume)

• 𝗡𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮 (CHP1-3 Mini series, Good mix of wholesome, hectic storyline, and it's not 30-50 chapters long)

• 𝗦𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝘀 (Not GTS focused, but a lady Gigantor (Diane) is one of the central characters. Diane is better written character without the cringe, more badass)

• 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗼 (If you want fanservice, short series)
