Short, sweet and simply a beautiful movie I must say. The feeling each had for one another was lovely; the fact that he cared for her so much that he even lost his memory shows the extent of those emotions.
I loved Hal not only the movie but the character himself as well and the end left me heartbroken and yet feeling so filled wid joy that he lived on because she wanted him to ^_^ he was saved

I have to say that Hal is such a beautiful movie. I love the animation and the characters . The story is beautiful and bittersweet This is one of the few anime where I thought I knew how the story was going to end but bang that twist came it made me shocked. But really I recommend it .

The story is set in a technologically advanced time where robots are designed to act like humans. The entire story is a bit depressing because of an horrific accident that takes place in the beginning, leaving people devastated and crushed. A robot that looks exactly like a human is sent to comfort one of main characters in the story due to the accident that took away someone important. It's hard to give you the synopsis of the story without spoiling anything because the story does have a sudden twist. But anyways, the story focuses on two main characters, Hal and Kurumi who is Hal's girlfriend. Don't want go too in depth with the characters because I'd be spoiling a lot if I did, but the characters are very much enjoyable. The movie was animated by Wit Studio who are known for animating the amazing series called Attack on Titan. I got to say, this studio can really animate, because the animation looks quite beautiful and eye catching.The voice acting was believable and the music was great, but none of the music really stood out to be memorable.
Overall I personally really enjoyed this movie and was in the right mood to watch it. It had sad captivating moments that really stood out because of animation and voice acting.This movie isn't something you really have to watch, but if you're looking for a short yet enjoyable romance story, then I suggest trying this one, it's only an hour long.
