The Girl Who Leapt Through Time

So tonight at the anime club meeting, we ended up watching "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time"... which, despite the oddity of its title, was probably one of the best time-travel movies I've ever seen. :3 Perhaps it's because in the end, it wasn't about technology or paradoxes or saving the world, but about the characters

Hey cool, Misch.

"The Girl Who Leapt Through Time", huh? I've never heard of it? What is the basic premise of the film? besides timetravel and pudding. :p

In trying to find out when it was released, I found a wikipedia article that does a pretty good job of describing it. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Girl_Who_Leapt_Through_Time ) As noted, it's basically about a high-school girl who somehow develops the power to leap backwards through time, allowing her to redo past actions. At first she uses it to back and eat pudding (at least, a pudding her sister ate before her), sing karaoke, ace tests, and so on. But as the movie goes along she starts seeing the adverse consequences to some of these actions.

Sounds like an interesting story. Do you have anything you figure you'd do with a spot of time travelling?
