first let's say this movie is a little special because i don't really know what is the goal or the way that's trying to go.. this is very little in information and i doubt a lot that you will not have that much a big interest in it.. but anyway let's begin !

*Note* i talk about a thing about PC but that's make me think about a PC but this is actually called the "Box of Wisdom" as you can see just the name make think about a PC so yeah i don't mention it in the review but with this note you will know it now.. so everything happen into the "Box of Wisdom"

About The Story 
the story begin with a girl who are actually a Anti-Virus but the world she liked that much have been infected by a Virus and she need to delete all the memory about it ! (really special that's look like a PC thing..) after that a strange girl appear into the World of the Anti-Virus that's very a world but a kind of place where the Anti-Virus are checking if there no Virus who infect the place (Probably the HardDisk) so now i think you see a little bit what i tried to say by saying this is special.. that's look like a Anti-Virus story into a PC and the storyline is very very but very poor.. because there really no Story there one but.. this is very unclear .. i mean that's have been complicated to follow because there something related to family but.. they are Anti-Virus so.. i don't understand the connection between a Anti-Virus and a Family... this is very strange... and there a lot of unexplained things ! so i highly think that the worst point of the anime is the storyline.. i didn't understand easily the goal of it.. this is sad to think like that but the story really need more contents ! i would like to talk more about it but there really nothing to talk about it.. so yeah this is pretty bad for the story part.. !
About The Animation and Sounds
well the most good point of the Anime is the Animation and the Sounds ! the animation was pretty nice to watch and have nice background , the most interesting place is the strange World where the Anti-Virus live and you can see they have work a lot on the Animation and that's normal because this is a movie (LOOOl did i have really say that) so yeah the Animation was the most strong point on the Anime and this is probably why you gonna watch the anime.. yes watching it for the Animation ! for the Sounds well normally i post a Opening and Ending but this is movie so you understand why there no OP and END , so back to what i'm talking about.. the songs in it was pretty good and for the voice-actor i don't see any problems.. for the Effects Sounds well they have use the same explosion sound for each explosion.. i mean i know to have hear this explosion sound into Psycho-Pass but this is not bad don't get me wrong ! that's was a lot confusing too and i didn't know where that's was going but well.. not that much more to say about it.. i was deceived for the story part..

About The Characters
there only 3 Characters into this anime and some others who are very secondary but you will see them for only 1-2 Minute , for be short i will just talk about the only 3 Characters Dual / a Anti-Virus programmed for protect the PC "Box of Wisdom" (that's not a PC but i call it like that) so she detect and erase infected data and kill the Virus but she don't talk that much she is more quiet that anything , she is Partner with Dorothy.. i mean they help each others to fight Virus and live actually at the same place but she will a lot curious about Remo and want to search more about this girl because she is suspicious !
Dorothy / the other Anti-Virus who are with Dual , but she see more Dual like a Rival but they are Partners she actually does the same thing like Dual because they are both programmed to protect the "Box of Wisdom" , the only thing different between them is their personality , Dorothy is more loud and talk more than Dual and she show more emotion than Dual..

Remo / the girl who Dual and Dorothy find suspicious because she have appear just like that in the Box of Wisdom , Remo have completely lost her memory too and only remember her name and a Word that you will discover in the anime ! we don't really what she is and why she is here but she have the attitude of Human and are pretty a lovable girl who take care of the Anti-Virus but yeah she is full of mysteries..

About The Enjoymentwell i don't say that you will jump on your chair and applause but the thing enjoyable was the Animation and this is probably why you will enjoy the Anime but i would have prefer a real story with a lot of things but there no really big punch into the story or others interesting things.. so that's was pretty decent but the Animation was the most enjoyable thing without forget the Ambiance of the Anime who are pretty relax , but yeah i warning you.. if you watch the anime you will probably only enjoy the Animation

i will not recommend something like that if you research a good story.. i will only recommend it if you want to see some nice Animation and only be here for seeing the graphics of the Animation or only if you want to relax a little bit ! so yeah..this is not the best but this is a show to watch for the Animation only !

Glass no Hana to Kowasu Sekai is a 60-minute long animated film directed by Masashi Ishihama and produced by A-1 Pictures. Frankly, what made me watch this film was its relatively short length, so I'll describe its positive and negative aspects.

Positive:
(+) The art and animation
I guess this is the section most of the budget went to. The backgrounds of this anime were simply gorgeous. The colors and details were amazing. The animation was also smooth and high quality. I didn't especially like the character designs, mostly because I dislike anime with little girls, but objectively speaking, there was nothing wrong with that either.

(+) The soundtrack
The soundtrack of this anime was comprised mostly of piano pieces, which fit well in most of the scenes. Overall, I liked the soundtrack a lot.

(+) The concept
Despite the flawed execution, the concept of this anime was pretty good. The events happen in a virtual world, where the main characters, who are anti-virus programs, delete corrupt files. Basically, imagine if the agents in Matrix were cute magical girls. I have to admit, the idea wasn't bad at all, but it could have been better, for reasons which I am gonna explain below.

Negative:
(-) Everything else
Apart from the great art and soundtrack, as well as the concept, the movie fails at pretty much every other department. Despite its short 1-hour length, this movie feels like 2 hours due to the slow pacing and constant information dumping. The characters speak endlessly about the details of their world, but without a proper explanation, everything feels like pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo. The characters remain mostly under-developed, so you don't really care what happens to them. The action scenes were short, and despite the brilliant animation, you don't really know what's happening, apart from the obvious ugly virus monster vs cute anti-virus girl.

Overall, despite the attempt of doing something unique, this movie ends up being pretty much forgettable and with nothing much to offer apart from the good visuals.
