Hibiki isn't the classic school movie with the girls fighting about who will get the pretty boy. Here, the girls fight about who will become an author. The leading lady, a girl who is the complete oposite of her friend, has an odd way of seeing the world around her. She has zero sense of danger and she ofter uses that to her advantage to scare off the people around her and get her way. It was clear that the girl was hiding more than a bully in her. However, the movie needed some more time to explore her personality and the reason why she was like that. The story is kind of simple, and yet a bit complecated. Overall, it was enjoyable, especially because of the performances.

A Unsympathetic Heroine

...bland movie; like a TV movie.
Is a tale with the main character a violent weirdo that cannot express her feelings in real life but in novels. Even the pet is a non animated one. Also use her fiery to defend the ones that she appreciate.
She lives outside of the real world but interacts a plenty with non social behaviors I must say.
I see that when these types of flicks try to show a "genius" is often described as some kind of outsider that is beyond "all" and does not care for prizes, money or fame and comes back to his/her refuge.
The other writers that appear here are complicated characters too.
Interesting

Hibiki is the nail that stick out from the Japanese society. She won't let her get hammered down. The story is quite simple showing the competitive world in being a novelist. We see different characters in this movie, the hard worker, the one who gets in because of her father, and the genius. What makes the movie interesting is the character of Hibiki and her relationships with the others. You cannot just dislike her. She super frank and that's just funny. Because it contrasts what we usually see in a Japanese society. She will not let anyone get in her way to realize her dream. Interesting movie overall.
kinda disappointed

To be honest i saw myself in hibiki and the movie was so wonderfull in the color and the vibes but i have to say that it was kinda lame , it was good at the opening but meaningless at half of the movie and the ending was so nonsense and rusting.
Must Watch

Hibiki tells us abut hot the bookworm, with high sense of literature is become the most important thing that we should have when become a novelist. The fist time actress Hirate Yurina bring her coolness from the real life to this movie and surprisingly slap the adults. How the real of this? Which one is true? Just watch it ASAP!!!!
Kinda Boring

Even though i said that, there's a lot of meaningful messages in this movie i never read the manga before but what can i say after watching this is that there's so many holes in this movie, like the character is really wonderful but they didn't use too much of it for example Ryotaro who appeared right when the movie starts but he don't have any specific role in the movie not even a meaningful line, also the ending is such a cliffhanger, not even mentioning the "pig in the pig cage(?)", well i still like the actions in the movie tho especially when she threw the mic, the female character is really peculiar but that's the good thing from this movie i guess
p/s first time reviewing sry for the lack of english vocab, i just have this urge to review this movie
