- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 1 hr 32 min.
- What might put you off

- It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
Three women – 27 year old Tokyo office worker Mire Yoshizuki, 22 year old fourth-year college student Sora Nagase, and 20 year old boyish, part-time Hiroshima okonomiyaki shop worker and freelancer Reika Kawatani – are drawn together by a magic gem.
