Summary: In an alternate timeline, Japan was divided after losing World War II: Hokkaido was annexed by "Union" while Honshu and other southern islands were under US sovereignty. A gigantic yet mysterious tower was constructed at Hokkaido and could be seen clearly from Aomori (the northernmost prefecture of Honshu) across Tsugaru Strait. In the summer of 1996, three 9th-graders had made a promise that one day they'll build an aircraft and unravel the tower's mystery, but their project was abandoned after the girl, Sayuri Sawatari, began experiencing sleeping sickness and transferred to Tokyo for better treatment. Three years later, Hiroki Fujisawa accidentally found out that Sayuri had been in a coma since then, and he asked Takuya Shirakawa to help him finding a way to revive her. What they don't know yet is that Sayuri's unconsciousness is somehow linked with secrets of the tower and the world.

So if there was any reference to this it would be a similar little different version of Eureka Seven. Minus about 90% action. The animation and art was amazing, minus the characters. I couldn't help but think the entire time how amazing the scenery and effects were if they only put that amount of effort into the characters. If I were to rate scenery/Art A++, the characters drawn C+. The dialogue was intelligent and well done, and creative if only an anime by the creator of Bones(Eureka Seven, Bounen No Xamdou) didn't do it first. Anyhow I'm not (read more)

This is a very good movie. I didnt understand it at first but as I finally understood it the story became deeper and a lot more beautiful. If only others would understand the meaning behind it all.
