Theyboth carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Hal, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tamako Love Story is
Here's a film that knows its audience, and caters to it lovingly. High-schooler Tamako remains unmoved by the obvious affections of her childhood friend, who plans to attend university in Tokyo. The question is whether she'll figure things out before he leaves. It's cute, if you're into that sort of thing.
