Atom User Reviews for The Night Is Short, Walk on Girl
Loved it, definitely watch if you liked Tatami Galaxy.
Masaaki Yuasa did amazing work adapting the imaginary visuals of the original novel into visuals on screen. Tomihiko Morimi’s fun and lighthearted story speaks well for his acclaim. Yusuke Nakamura’s character design is simple as always but even more appealing and only adds more to the charm of Studio 4*C’s hard work. This film is a keeper in my book and I’m looking to add it to a growing collection.
A very Animation Film Festival Feature
Visionary Masterpiece from Masaaki Yuasa and his team at Science Saru + Tomohiko Morimi
A unique visual feast that made me laugh! Really enjoyed this movie!
The whole theater was laughing and the guy I brought with me even applauded at the end. One of the most entertaining anime I’ve seen in recent history!
A striking visual rollercoaster with sweet and funny elements. An m&m blondie brownie of a film.
This movie had a great and entertaining story that came full circle. The art style was also breathtaking and I can’t wait to see it again!
I loved the art style and animation. The stort was funny and didn’t expect some parts.
Really was a fun movie. It's thematically all over the place, and it was everything needed to make one night seem like a lifetime's worth of adventure.
Excellent, entertaining, and a whole lot of fun! Great for young adults, but maybe not for anyone younger than a teen.
Perfect for any anime fan, especially those familiar with Tatami Galaxy. The story is concise and cohesive, delivering on both visual and musical creativity.
non sequitur zany romantic comedy with interesting visuals
Amazing film for young women and young men about how love works coming into adulthood. Artwork is fantastic.
Just fantastic! Laughed out loud, loved every moment!
best animated movie I've seen in a while
It was a fun movie, and after watching it, I just want to go out and have a night fun!
A psychedelic love story
Adorable and hilarious! Unique style and great story. Definitely a fun film!
Metacritic
Almost emblematic of the nonsense and insanity that pervades university campus life, Night Is Short, Walk On Girl is a fun and entertaining ride, though its dissatisfying conclusion and weak ability to transition between ideas may leave audiences feeling a little underwhelmed.
Yuasa doesn’t care much for substance, so beyond the film’s surface charms there’s not much to hang onto. But those surface charms are substance enough. Colorful, madcap, and surprisingly sweet, The Night Is Short, Walk On Girl is the best nocturnal romp you never had, and a dizzying reignition of rom-com formula.
