Popular, outgoing Fujino is celebrated by her classmates for her funny comics in the class newspaper. One day, her teacher asks her to share the space with Kyomoto, a truant recluse whose beautiful artwork sparks a competitive fervor in Fujino. What starts as jealousy transforms when Fujino realizes their shared passion for drawing.
Based on the acclaimed manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the creator of “Chainsaw Man”, Look Back captures the highs and lows of pursuing artistic excellence and the special bonds formed through creative collaboration. The heart-wrenching story is the stunning feature-length directorial debut from Kiyotaka Oshiyama that will leave you in tears and inspire you to chase your own artistic dreams.

Kiyotaka Oshiyama said he stayed at the office all day for about two and a half months and finished a day before the early premiere. So much love and hard work went into this project. I feel like I owe my life to this legend

[@princessthyemis]

@neonbvde2234 whoaaa oh my gosh!!!!! Talk about hard work! I hope he got some rest after that! I have been thinking about this ever since I saw the trailer a couple of hours ago, and I can't stop thinking about how amazing it is! I totally can't wait to see it!!!

[@kayagorzan]

Major props to him

[@MIKAPOCALYPSE]

The standard for movies adapting the manga art just raised to heaven💀 This literally captures Fujimoto’s art perfectly.

[@namelesschild3724]

I'm crying not only because it's a sad story, but because it's made out of gold. the animation's so good

[@Fuduwahluz]

It was perfect, the theater was sniffling

[@kiltacular280]

Bruh I sobbed I was worried my parents would think I was high cuz my eyes were red from crying

[@Fuduwahluz]

@@kiltacular280 dude when fujino looks back and sees kyomoto's signed jacket on the door, I couldn't ;_;

[@MrRipjaw1234]

Everyone was balling their eyes out especially me

[@kiltacular280]

@@Fuduwahluz yeah that part got me HARD. For me it was the stills of them together right before it 😭

[@Idk-ro9nt]

I was already tearing up with the opening sequence. The music was so beautiful to listen to especially in theaters

[@AnshulYadav-zc9uq]

Ah shit, time to cry again

[@Scherzi159]

Thank you GKIDS for bringing this to North America so fast. Just watched it in theatre yesterday and cried my eyes out. This hits so hard

[@Clayinator]

This is the most faithful adaptation we could have ever gotten for this masterpiece. Look Back is honestly one of the most beautiful mangas I may have ever read in my life.

[@jase276]

Only 2 days is disrespectful. You'd think after Boy and The Heron wining an Oscar they'd put more respect on animated films. Especially Japanese ones.

[@samh2222]

and don't tell others, but I think Look Back is better

[@DXDragon38]

Absolutely feels like this was a better film

[@death666753]

@@samh2222waaaay better

[@deliii395]

Anyone who gets the chance to watch this movie must watch it! Tatsuki Fujimoto sensei's complicated feelings towards himself and his craft comes through so beautifully through the characters of Fujino & Kyomoto and their art. Toshio Suzuki, the producer of all Miyazaki sensei's movies said this about Look Back- " why do we draw? This movie answers that question". And I couldn't agree more.

[@Ren-oz9jr]

The voice actors are killing it! their voices feel so natural its perfect!

[@7731maru]

Kyomoto speaks with a Tohoku (rural) accent, which is incredibly endearing.

[@ringochiu6472]

"Fujino: It's because... Kyomoto: I had so much fun today " If you haven't read the manga, and you experience this story for the first time by film, please come back and watch this trailer afterwards! Everything hits so much harder

[@princessthyemis]

This looks like something SPECTACULAR!!!!! This animation is beyond gorgeous and technically JAW DROPPING?!?!??! I totally wanna see this!!!!!

[@101_Raven]

I love the way they arranged the dialogue here. It's like they're talking to each other. And it's even more impactful once you come back to this video, after watching the movie.

[@ZornA.Mations]

no other trailer for a movie makes me cry just from remembering the original book. this is gonna be amazing

[@DXDragon38]

Absolutely fantastic movie, watched it a few days ago! Still emotional even after reading the One Shot years ago

[@garrettsolomon6676]

I just finished reading the manga for the first time! Now I need to talk to someone about that ending!

[@Splatey]

Its so sad yet hopeful at the same time, the ending makes you wish things could have went a different way (in a good way) but, we have to move on from the past and we have to go forward, and not give up on our dream

[@victorianicholls3991]

I saw the other trailer yesterday which led to me reading the manga bc I heard it was short. I just finished it earlier. What's not short is this comment lol I feel like for the "how things could have been" part, it's important to remember that it's exactly that, a hypothetical. We don't know if that's what would have happened. Kyomoto might have remained a shut-in, never gaining the confidence to go out on her own. Fujino is "looking back" with regret on what she did and asking what if she hadn't? Hadn't drawn that manga, hadn't brought Kyomoto out. Hadn't let her go to art school. But with this negative viewpoint, she's missing all of the good she did for Kyomoto. Bc of Fujino, Kyomoto went outside, explored, made manga, became more confident, and experienced _friendship._ If Fujino hadn't taken Kyomoto out of her room, she might still be alive But Fujino did take her out of her room - and helped her _live_ So yeah. To go off the other reply, Fujino can't change what happened in the past. She can only remember the good things that happened and move forward knowing that they both had a profound impact on each other's lives. Don't look back.

[@sundragon7703]

Just saw this film in the theater today (10.06.24). I really enjoyed "Look Back", but I must admit my 20-something self may not. Having life experiences under the belt makes the subtle elements stand out. Thanks GKIDS for bringing this to North America.

[@Idk-ro9nt]

Saw this movie last night. It was an incredible experience. I’m so glad I watched it

[@650pm]

Me and my friend cried so many times about the ending in and out of the theater. Even going back to watching these trailers still makes me cry. It feels almost too pure for something this good to be in the theaters. I haven’t felt so much impact on a movie in so long that I wanna watch this over and over again. Kyomoto and Fujino, are so fucking adorable. I think it was beautiful for the art direction of this film. It’s such a pure and heartwarming movie to me that I haven’t felt in ages. I’m so pissed off it gets to only show for two days

[@DorianDiaconuTV]

We need this in Europe asap

[@ライオン-x6r]

The best movie I've ever seen in my life.

[@no-tc3mt]

[@moglom93]

It's so cool that they worked with Nakamura Haruka for the music ❤

Feels like a love letter from Fujimo to Kyuto Ani.

This movie is definitely worth watching! I highly recommend it!

[@AbiyBattleSpell]

I like how they kept the rough ugliness of the work, being one his earlier works it’s really sketchy but in a good way and glad to see that imperfection in the animated version. It really show u don’t need perfect art to be a artist

Do you guys think theater tickets are gonna be full priced even though this movie is not even an hour long?

[@sle6423]

God danggit no love for Madison WI 😭

[@douglassun8456]

I'm surprised, given that Madison is such a big university town. Maybe you need to lobby your local theaters to buy in? Back in the day, an anime screening like this would be limited to art house theaters, but GKIDS gets their movies into AMC and Regal these days.

[@sle6423]

@douglassun8456 yeah there's a local one that will usually bring them, but sometimes they don't which is frustrating. I'm gonna keep an eye out to see of they add screenings late (has definitely happened once or twice before)

[@sle6423]

They're bringing it to Madison! Glad I double checked 😅

[@mirrorslul]

While it's a good thing that Look Back gets an adaptation i believe that it'll lose some of its "cinematic" charm portrayed in how Fujimoto draws and positions his panels. Still gonna wait though

[@pixelysandwich]

Uh oh look who’s crying for the new time

[@zivbartal4160]

I will watch only if they change the terrible ending
