O segredo de Akko (2012)

Dear Akko-chan
The story has a faint touch of heart. It was warm, but not hot. I have no feelings towards the characters at the end of the movie.
It reminded me of the fairy tales that I watched and read. "They lived happily ever after. The End."

I do like the characters. Although your character's movement was a little too exaggerated. At one scene, surrounded by dull business attires, it reminded me of "Legally Blonde".

Although the story was a child's play, it was okay. I don't really pay attention to the background music.

It was mostly sunny, bright, and very cheery. I don't believe I would watch it again. It was a bit unrealistic for me. There was a readily prepared prince charming at the beginning of the movie. It was fair since came from a children's anime series.

The plot is not exactly new: Girl gets magical object and makes herself older to enjoy the adult world. It is nicely done as it is set into a business surrounding with all its pitfalls and challenges. I bet it is even more hillarious if I could understand the Japanese language and the degree of rudeness this girl inadvertently spills out, but I think one does get the main points.
The story is pretty straight forward, there are no real surprises and it is more like a fairytale for teenagers than a captivating movie plot.There are some strange and a bit implausible story twists (and we are talking magic-mirror movie here), but well, strange things happen in fairytales. It's more Coming of age than romance even though there is a Prince Charming.
The acting was a bit over the top at times for my taste, but still okay.
I didnt really pay attention to the music which means it was neither awesome nor dreadful.

All in all it was an okay movie but I will not watch it a second time.
