YesAsia Editorial Description

This startling short anime feature was created entirely by one person, Maktoto Shinkai, on his home computer. Beautifully animated, VOICES OF A DISTANT STAR is the story of a young woman named Mikako and an alien race's attack on the human race. Feeling that she must help protect the Earth, Mikako leaves her true love, Noboru, and joins the resistance as a pilot. Sent to the far reaches of space, Mikako can only communicate to Noboru by cell-phone text messages. As time goes on, the messages take longer and longer to get one another, eventually taking a year or more. So, as Mikako lives and fights in the vacuum of space, staying the same age, Noboru waits and gets older, hoping that their love can survive the passage of time and the brutal war.

Short.... but very Very sweet! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Never realised that this movie is only 30 minutes long when I purchased it. But what an amazing 30 minutes of anime!!! The story is about a pair of lovers separated by space and time. Touching with remarkable artwork and a great soundtrack and memorable ending.
A great one to watch with the missus :)

Awesome! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Great story, however, sad ending. I have saw it on english version first, which was so-so 'cause the translation. However, when the cantonese version came out, I bought it again and the story in translation is much better. Great theme and in some ways, you feel kinda bad for the characters.
