This anime was a breath of fresh air for me, using the themes of 'insomnia' and 'romance' which nobody would ever think go hand in hand. I thought this was kind of a chill anime which it was but also with something more thanks to the romance element and it was also a different style in delivering a romance story than the usual ways. I don't want to go into to much detail but for me these would be my highlights.
For me, I would also highlight the animations, mainly of the starry skies. To me they were quite beautifully done and I really enjoyed
...
that the frames for the starry sky were not so similar to each other. I also very much liked the art style, to me it felt at some points I was watching a movie. Also, I did like the supporting characters a lot they felt a lot more relatable to me or at least to me their behaviours didn't seem so unnatural or uncommon. I felt the anime did a good job at capturing elements of youth life better than some anime. It also was a nice touch of making something as bad as insomnia as a way to enjoy your life and not feel so different compared to others.
My dislikes for the anime would probably be on the topic of insomnia. Even though the whole anime revolves around this, to me it kinda felt more like an anime based on astrology and photography or as they say within the anime astrophotography. I would have liked maybe if they had used more elements relating to insomnia but I am not so displeased cause of that :)
I also would have liked it if there was more closure around the topics of why they did find it difficult to sleep. They did talk about it at one point within the anime but it felt pretty short and seemed to not have much relevance within the anime.
Overall, I think this was a great anime. I also liked the ending cover theme more than the opening cover theme and I would recommend others to also enjoy this chill romance anime. My score on this anime would be somewhere between 7.5-8/10.
Also I would highly recommend to watch it at night and try to finish it in one go to get a good experience ;)
