United States | Boston Globe | "Funny and creative (...) what makes "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" such an unexpected treat is the contemplative pace and painterly visuals" | POS |
United Kingdom | The Guardian | "Time travel has rarely seemed so joyous. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" | POS |
United Kingdom | The Times | "It's a polished piece of whimsy. Creepy too in the way it promotes a homogenised picture of the future." | NEU |
United Kingdom | Time Out | "Superior animé caper comedy with wit, energy and mad invention to spare" | POS |
United States | Seattle Times | "A perfect place to start for anyone, of any age, who's been resistant to anime (and manga)" | POS |
United Kingdom | Empire | "It has few fireworks, but still sticks in the mind, and is a definite upgrade from Digimon: The Movie for director Mamoru Hosoda." | POS |
