The Shortest Distance is Round: Rain and Soda is a quietly intricate piece that weaves together the threads of love, loss, and the mysteries of personal choices. The atmosphere is a blend of melancholy and hope, underscored by the delicate performances of the leads, Haruto and Aoyama. Their chemistry is palpable, and you really feel the weight of their burgeoning relationship. The pacing is a bit contemplative, which really suits the reflective nature of the story. It’s interesting how the narrative unfolds through the eyes of Shibahara, who adds a layer of intrigue and complexity. The practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the film's emotional core without overshadowing its character-driven plot.
