If you loved Fragtime, try Happy-Go-Lucky Days

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

What Happy-Go-Lucky Days is

A triptych anime aimed at proving love swears it’s all the same once the aching part’s over. One story follows an ex walking another down the aisle, another tracks a crush at a strict boys’ school, and the last watches bodies and hearts sync up in adolescence. It’s sweet when it’s not rounding every corner back to confection.
