I pushed back watching this for a while now. I did not want to go through what I went through when I watched Clannad. Yet here I am... feeling so down after watching this amazing piece of art. It makes me wonder what kind of life I'm living, and why I feel so empty after watching Anime such as this one.

Friendship is an amazing thing, but not everyone gets to experience it... Anxiety, depression, social awkwardness, etc. This Anime really puts that into perspective, among many other things.

My final thoughts: If you have not watched this yet, or you are trying to decide whether you should, please know that this Anime is an emotional roller coaster, and you will likely cry or feel very depressed after watching this. I pushed back watching this because I did not want to cry, but I watched it tonight and have no regrets. Watch this masterpiece when you are ready, and don't force yourself into it. I'm glad I waited.

This was such an incredibly powerful movie. Even a couple days later after watching it, I keep coming back to it, feeling like I should watch it again. Either I might’ve missed something the first time or maybe I just want to ride the roller coaster again. There’s an incredible gravity to this film just keeps trying to pull me back in. I play the scenes again and again in my head and the emotions of it all swell within me.

This was such a moving journey of bullying, self-hate, suicide, and perhaps, redemption. I will never think about the depression around me the same way, and because of this movie, I will never, ever hesitate to reach out to those around me. Just one hand can pull someone back from the brinks of despair and every life is worth it.

This awesome movie moved me. It made me cry. I felt sad in the mid and was happy in the end. I was hoping them to be couple in the end. But that's good too.

Best anime I have watched - beat my long time favourite of Berserk, the first thing I watched.

Cannot recommend this enough - very touching, best thing I have watched in my life so far.

Watch it, and do it now.

it was kinda hard to watch this movie because of my past experience, though the story itself was beautifully done. I've never cried so much since Kimi No Na wa.

**A film that changed my vision of the life**

"A Silent Voice" is a film that has changed my vision of the life, understanding better the importance of the human communications. Including profound reflections related to empathy, self-esteem, redemption, self-improvement, and the importance of understanding and listening to others.

This film was truly made with love. Because it has a Sound-Track, thought and composed as if they were simulating the stimuli that a deaf person can feel throughout his life, such as the touch of someone or the vibrations of a cup of water.

Also, the way that it is made the animation and the camera angles, reflecting the feeling and the evolution of each character. Giving a unique impact because of the way it is well-thought-out.

Making me love this film even more for these details, feeling a unique and nostalgic experience when watching it, leaving it definitely one of the best films on a personal level. I don't understand how this film hasn't won any Oscar.

My only complaint is they should have turned this into a series so I can watch more of them instead of a movie. Nevertheless, it is indeed one of the best anime movie ever. A story of imperfect people trying to grow and develop really sell well and it also captures the feeling of melancholic very well. Overal 10/10 top recommended anime movie.
