Haruki in the hospital waiting room comes across a book, a dairy kept by one of his classmates, Sakura. The book is titled, Living with Dying. Sakura catches him reading her dairy and reveals to him that she is suffering from a fatal pancreatic disease. At first he doesn't seem to care and shows zero sympathy because he doesn't like to involve himself with others, causing him to live a very lonely life. As Sakura, his polar opposite who is very outgoing, loud and cheerful, continues to hang around him, he begins to open up to her making his first real friend and Sakura has ... now finally found someone who is able to treat her normally while also being aware of her illness. As the pair of polar opposites interact, their connection strengthens. Sakura's apparent nonchalance and unpredictability disrupts Haruki's impassive flow of life, gradually opening his heart as he discovers and embraces the true meaning of living.

This anime, like some others, reminds you that you never know how much time you have left so you should make every moment count because one day you won't have the opportunity to do so. I love this movie, I love how well emotions are portrayed in anime and when the purpose of the anime is to bring out emotions, they never fail to create something truly beautiful.

I highly suggest you watch this movie, as for recommendations if you want to watch some similar, I recommend: Your lie in April and Clannad. They are both absolutely amazing anime, Clannad being my favourite anime of all time and Your lie in April is also a favourite of mine. I can guarantee if you liked this movie you will love those two.

Never forget that you have no idea how much time you have left. So you should make the most of every moment.
