After so long I watched something this impeccable. Both the story and the animation were beyond beautiful and caught my attention in just few minutes. This movie beautifully portrayed "How Beautiful yet Harsh Life Can Be!". Even with all the mythical elements they gave a realistic approach to the story in the end and I really felt like crying because of that.
I'm definitely gonna recommend this to everyone. It'll be worth your time.

Bad movie. I don't get all the good reviews, it has decent looking animation, however it has no substance. There is a lot happening on the screen yet at the same time it manages to depict nothing important or consistent. The story line was very nonsensical.

I watched Maquia: When the Promised Flowers Bloom last night and it was definitely a great and powerful movie. Well worth the trip and wait to watch it. It is an absolutely beautiful looking movie with some amazing characters, pretty interesting setting/world-building, and fantastically developed emotions and themes throughout. It was definitely a real tearjerker at times, especially towards the end.

There were a couple plot holes and things that were left unclear as to how and why they were happening/happened, but they were more minor concerns and quips on my end (don't really want to spoil them). They don't really hold you back from enjoying the movie. The ending was definitely an emotional whirlwind (I just didn't like one little part with Leilia), but well worth the journey and very well done overall. If your theater is still showing screenings this week (like in NYC) definitely check it out while you can. If not, pray for the BD release to come ASAP.

Another beautiful anime movie that shows the importance of time. I think the plot lost me at some points, but if you like an emotional story, then you'll like this movie too.

This movie was a heart-aching film centered around a mother-son relationship. The story was sometimes inconsistent, but I don't think it detracts from its emotional impact. The story has the potential to reach your heart; it indeed reached mine.

It was a great movie apart from its little plot mistakes (sometimes it just felt like someone appears without an explicit reason or the caracters meet out of nowhere...). I would still recommend it, it's a fine movie from about 2 hours (not too long) and the drawings are really beautiful.
Maquia is just so cute and also a very strong woman!!

For those who have only seen anime movies from those legendary names like otomo, hayao Miyazaki, kon satoshi, the mamorus, etc, this is a good chance to take a closer look into anime industry nowadays.
The movie is powerful and touching, but i think it should be praised more on its originality, giving us a fresh new world of swords and magics.
in a very subtle way the stories of many different characters were told, and each of them full enough to be something on their own. About Maquia and Ariel I don't want to spoil it for you, but i can tell you its a story about love and lost, and might give you some support or insight at some point of your life.
really! go see it!
