Thanks to Tatsuya Ishihara's anime "Up." You can get a lot of impressions, despite the fact that this special issue is not the heat of passion that captures the viewer in the series itself. The summer special is interesting in its own way - it tells what was not told in the main tape.
Of course, you should watch this addition only after watching the series itself, since the special release does not carry a semantic load separately from the anime. If you've seen the series, then "Up." You will enjoy the summer special. close
