Very thankful I put off watching this for so long, as it hit very effectively with me as a 29 year old wrapped up in memories of the past and trying to figure out what they want out of life. Only Yesterday is a quiet, understated, lovely film with a very mature perspective on the passing of time and the forces that shape us. I wish the film had done a bit more in regards to stating that some of what Taeko went through was actually trauma, but despite this I left feeling well-nourished.

Well made. My biggest criticism would probably be that some parts could be shorter. But as a whole it's really pretty good. Balanced, thoughtful and emotionally resonant. Recommended!

A stunning pastoral and a beautiful reflection on childhood and maturity voiced by a superb Japanese cast. Moving and immersive vignettes washed in watercolours flow into scenes of naturalistic dialogue and silence that breathes deeply and fresh—a sunrise is a moment of holy pause, conversations in the car wander through profundity as the vehicle winds through the fields. Authentic and utterly singular, patient and lovely. Beautiful.

It's an interesting look at growing up and how our childhood and past shapes who we are and what memories really stick with us. It has some beautiful imagery, but the movie is a bit slow in terms of the story. The story kind of has a romantic element, but is mostly on the ground in the ebbs and flows of life. Our events don't always make sense in a straight narrative, but they still shape us. That's what this movie taps into.

Isao Takahata is rapidly becoming one of my favorite directors. I had no idea what I was getting into with this one, but it hit me hard in all the right ways. He had such a profound way of capturing humanity and showcasing even the mundane as important and noteworthy. This film is a masterpiece and needs to be seen.

Another animation full of details and colors that are linked to the development of the protagonist. It is a film about the wisdom that we all experience with life. Very sensitive and nostalgic!

Taeko: "When my sisters recall the good old days it's mainly about fashions or pop starts. For them 1966 was the high point of their youth. But for me it was just fifth grade."

A refreshing change of pace from other Studio Ghibli films on a more poignant subject and a historical piece. Fav scene: train at the end with the kids.

Well if this isn't the sweetest thing I've ever seen. Gentle, lyrical. Lovely and leisurely. An utterly charming sense of humor. Nostalgic of formative experiences, both the warm and the troubling, and the fulfillment of self-reflection and realization. Sympathetic of a woman's place in the world, from puberty to adulthood, and containing beautiful renderings of the Japanese countryside, but ultimately it feels universal.
