Trailer


This is my first time watching an anime like this recently I have written about “A Sign of Affection” which is a 2nd one and the first anime I have watched is “A Silent Voice”. I truly loved the trailer I have barely seen animes where there are is disabled people. It’s very heart touching to see these type of animes as not everyone prioritises these type of stories. It’s a great anime where you get to know how someone with hearing disability feels like.


Summaries

A boy who’s name is Shoya he has been bullying a deaf girl her name is Shouko and he keeps bullying to the point where she had to move away from the school to another school as a result Shoya got excluded and bullied himself. In the present time he has no friends to speak and he does not have any plans for the future. Years later, he decides to set himself on a path to clear out his deeds.

Another day while they are hanging out Naoka appeared who is one of the bullies. She has not changed a bit she still looks down on Shouko. But Shoya is not supportive towards Naoka this time. Which makes Naoka jealous of Shouko as she can see that Shoya is only paying attention to Shouko.

While hanging out with his old friends when Shouko was alone with Naoka she started to blame Shouko because Shoya lost his friends. Naoka thinks Shouko is always putting out an act to be nice. She also slapped her because of it.

In further we can see Shoya and Shouko is bonding with each other. But however, Shouko seems very depressed. Her hearing disability brought her disappointment. She wanted to desperately end her life without anyone knowing about her feelings. When she was preparing to jump off the balcony Shoya appeared in the right time and he grabbed her and asked her to live. But suddenly Shoya switched sides with Shouko and fell down got himself injured.

After hearing this news Naoka came to visit but when she saw Shouko she started to hit and curse her but Shouko’s mother appeared and she saved her but Naoka started to fight with Shouko’s mom. Then Shoya’s mom came and helped them out. Shouko was crying a lot as she got blamed for injuring Shoya. Shouko started to cry on the feet of Shoya’s mother.

When Shoya wakes up in the hospital he ran to find Shouko. He finally asked for forgiveness as he has never done this before when he should have. He asked Shouko to teach him how to live.

In the end every friend of Shoya got reunited with Shouko all of them seemed happy and Shoya began to make friends. He started to see the face of everyone and cried in joy.


Review

Any movie which is dealing with bullying and for it’s consequences deserves to be appreciated for the effort. Because bullying is an issue that needs to be addressed and shown to more people more than it is. Bullying can damage ones confidence/self-esteem and make them feel worthless. So, you can say that A Silent Voice is really on an emotional level. This movie turned out to be a very good one in its own right. I know that it is not flawless and also some of the supporting characters are not explored that much as it’s needed also, in some cases the story jumps around & does not feel completed. Great is not a enough strong word to describe this anime movie. The song is very catchy.


Overall

It’s not a perfect one but very well done and I would rate it 8/10. I would say that everyone should try this anime movie once in your life. I don’t think that anyone would dislike this movie as it is a sweet one.

This movie will always be a favorite for me. I love how psychology is somewhat explained in this movie. I still get goosebumps when I see those X(s) slowly falling one by one. That scene is just so precious.

When I watched this movie, I disliked the characters that bullied the main character, because I have been bullied, but they never tried to fix things like Shoya.

This movie is very good and very well done, it shows the damage that bullying can cause to a person and yet Shouko is still a beautiful girl with good feelings ❤️

It is evident to me that this movie has deeply impacted you and the emotion with which it conveys its message about bullying and its consequences. I really appreciate the spoiler alert, I wish everyone did the same.

Me resulta evidente que esta película te ha impactado profundamente y la emotividad con la que transmite su mensaje sobre el acoso escolar y sus consecuencias. Agradezco muchísimo la alerta de spoiler, ojalá todos hicieran lo mismo.

It is not just a movie but flow of emotions and nostalgia.

One of my favorite movies of this style. I don't like to watch anime movies, but I really loved watching this one, along with some others, especially because of the story and the characters. I really like the way they deal with such delicate and controversial topics as bullying. Also, as for the characters themselves, the development of each one and how the story unfolds until the end is magnetic and quite engaging.

Without a doubt, it is in my Top Best Drama Animes in History.
