Most of you prolly havent seen this movie yet... mainly bcuz its NOT from Japan, but from KOREA 
Wonderful Days
This korean animated film was released last year... and i might say, IT's superb ;D
One might ask, Korea makes "anime"?, well yes the do! and they are This-> __ close with the aesthetic quality that Japanese studios make. (Also watch out for "Shin Ahm Heng Uh Sah", a joint project of Japan and Korea)
Wonderful Days is a good "anime"... the animation is splendid but im not fond of CG that much, which the movie uses a lot. And the artwork is very pleasing, it sets the mood of a "dark future" (like Ghost in the Shell), overall one of the best pieces ive seen outside Japanese Anime
...
BUT, one thing makes this movie so Lacking... STORY development. Like most of the people who have watched this, i'd say i STILL dont understand almost 75% of the film... but its not our fault, the pacing is really quite akward and the story gets boring in just a short while, heck you wont even know the main character's name till around 45mins into the film
(his name is Shua btw, he's that guy on the left in the church scene) , but i guess the visuals makes you hooked up... i guess koreans still lacks the creativity of the japanese writers in animated producitons
so if your into fututristic/cyberpunk themes, i guess i'd reccomend it, but if your after a solid, good story... well, i guess not. I personally kinda like it, cuz of the visuals
peace^_^V
