Like other slice of life anime, light, slow and deep. Sangatsu no Raion brings us to the life of a talented player – Kiriyama Rei. He is considered an outstanding phenomenon in shogi chess with his successes beyond his age.

However, few people know how boring and exhausting his real life after each game of chess is. If part 1 revolves around Rei and his inner conflicts, in part 2 we have the opportunity to learn more about Rei’s relationships, especially the connection with the 3 Kawamoto sisters.

The plot translates with a series of events that lead the character Rei to quietly sink into pain and loss and then find her back with the three Kawamoto sisters. All make the anime sparkle with humanity behind the mourning.

In addition to the sad scenes and words spread, Sangatsu no Raion is also very delicate in regaining balance for the viewer with extremely cute humorous details.

The character Rei is built very realistically and is easy to empathize with. Sangatsu no Raion delves into Rei’s inner conflicts, in addition to success in this area also lies in Rei’s relationships with other characters.

The relationship between Rei and his adopted sister Ryouko is an interesting and complicated one. They both hate each other but also care deeply for each other. Ryouko is the one who understands Rei’s dark side best.

And although Ryouko said she hates Rei, but whenever something sad happens, she herself goes to Rei to relieve her sadness and find sympathy.

Then there are 3 Kawamoto sisters who always welcome him, always help and treat him like a family member. Then there is his friend, Nikaidou, who is always enthusiastic, sharing his joys and sorrows with Rei.

And teacher Takashi is dedicated, always encouraging and creating good conditions for him. Through those relationships, Rei gradually changed his way of thinking and became more mature. ????

Picture

The image is carefully invested, taking care of every detail. Personally, I’m particularly impressed with the animation,

I don’t know if I’m dizzy, but the scene where Rei was running on the street with his bag at night, I saw that the person running was a human being in the flesh, not a human. an anime character.

In addition, Sangatsu no Raion also succeeds in using images to express the inner character of the character.

Music

Music plays a role in leading the pace of the film, conveying the inner character of the character.

Almost throughout the movie, there’s not a minute without background music: soft ballads with a hint of sadness always follow in Kiriyama’s footsteps when he’s alone; the melodies are so playful that the musical notes and dancing go hand in hand with the moments with the Kawamoto sisters or Nikaidou;

and when the word “family” appeared in Kiriyama’s mind, the piano sound was slow and somewhat disjointed, as if he was scared and didn’t want to think about it. The op and ed versions are also very good.

This is a great slice of life anime that you definitely shouldn’t miss.
