hi! i don't really consider this as a full review, i just wanted to gather all my thoughts in a one place after finishing this show, so here it is~
♡ even though this anime was really short, a lot of things happened at the same time. there's different and original story behind every character and they're narrated very well, so you can't get lost among them. i think it helps to understand how various problems people may have at every stage of their life. it shows that children sometimes have even more difficult issues than their parents.
♡ at the same time hoshiai no sora left me really frustrated at how adults act daily. when they left their kids feeling unwanted and alone. when they make them feel like they shouldn't have problems. when they think children can't really be depressed, because they have no reason to. i realised families like these are real, stories like those take place even next to me.
♡ stars align forced me to rethink my behaviour towards many people. i always tried not to judge people and i thought i'm actually a good human because of that. but this anime hit me really hard. i tried not to judge people even more (if it makes any sense); sometimes we do it instantly without even thinking. and after few days i noticed that it's not that easy as i thought.
♡ the only disadvantage was that through those 12 eps you couldn't really get attached to the characters. i didn't manage even to remember all their names, while normally i have totally no problem with that. but i wonder if that's a real disadvantage? i think it may represent some anonymity and prove that basically everyone we meet in our life must fight with their own demons all the time. and then, names aren't really the most important, since we're all humans after all and bad things happend to all of us, despite of who we are.
♡ to sum up, this anime taught me A LOT and i totally recommend it to everyone. thanks to this i try to be more respectful to others. i try, because it's not always easy. we often see ourselves as those who has been hurt, we're frustrated and angry. we're hurt - person who caused it is bad. but we never know all the circumstances, we never know how the other person felt, why they behaved this way.
♡ i'm not saying we shoud accept bad things people are doing. hurting people is never okay. but i'm more willing to understand other's motives before judging them now. i try to get in their shoes for a while and see the world from their point of view. i believe nothing's always only black & white.
♡
at the end i wanted to mention that i totally loved lgbtq+ thread, it's so so so needed nowadays!
