The story is somewhat interesting so far. I&#8217;ve only watched 3 episodes so far, but it&#8217;s just not addicting yet. My first complain is not enough people die. In the beginning, you had a whole bunch of people die from the plane crash. Well, that doesn&#8217;t really count since most of them were dead before the 1st episode started. I&#8217;ve counted 3 kills so far, so it averages 1 dead body per episode. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?link_code=ur2&#038;tag=krunk4everblog-20&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB00005JLF2\">24<\/a> on the other hand had at least 10 kills per episode. The story is also not as fast pace as I would&#8217;ve imagined. Tons of flashbacks, but I guess that&#8217;s the main plot of this series, talking about each individuals story and how they ended up here on the island.<\/p>\n<p>I did learn something interesting.

The animation and soundtrack once again seems amazing. Although the preview\/teaser is only 45secs, it was beautifully done. The title &#8220;5 Centimeters Per Second&#8221; refers to the rate that sakura (cherry blossoms) petals fall at.
