If you loved Bakuman, try Sunny: Our Hearts Beat Together
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Hitoshi One, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bakuman, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Sunny: Our Hearts Beat Together is
Cancer brings old friends together. A high school group reunites one last time. Sentimentality ensues predictably.
