A Silent Voice

Love everything about the anime. The concept and the Characters development. A bully who depressed because of actions he did in the past

A Silent Voice is a film that stays with you. It's not comfortable viewing—it deals with bullying, depression, and suicide in ways that are raw and unflinching. But it's also a film about hope, about the possibility of change, about learning to see yourself and others clearly. Some people criticize it for not punishing Shoya enough, or for making Shoko too forgiving, or for simplifying the manga's complexity . Those criticisms have merit. But the film's emotional honesty outweighs its flaws. It's a story about the messiness of forgiveness—both forgiving others and forgiving yourself. And it tells that story with more grace and sensitivity than almost any other film I can think of.

Well it's a good anime but kinda boring for a person like me because the pace is actually slow I think but it has such a good story

this movie really shows how unpredictable life is and you should accept everybody's differences

This anime breaks down how people change. We see our main character go from an outright bully to someone seeking redemption. He feels alone as nobody knows who he is, and maybe it's for a good reason. The failed romance in this story makes it even more gut-wrenching. Two people who are polar opposites of each other finally meet in the middle. Shoya isn't looking to create a new friendship, or more, between him and Shoko, rather attempting to fix what he's done, even though he knows he can't truly.

Ts made me cry for the first time watching anime

Love it

A really nice anime movie, good for beginners. The main dude kinda pissed me off, but otherwise it had a great moral that almost everyone should learn one day.

It is a good anime to learn that not to bully an disabled person. The graphic that I don't like is a cross of the faces

Such a good movie made me emotional

A Silent Voice is one of the most emotionally powerful anime films ever created. Rather than relying on melodrama, it tells a sincere and deeply human story about bullying, guilt, forgiveness, disability, mental health, and the difficult journey toward accepting both others and yourself. The story follows Shoya Ishida, a former bully who tries to make amends with Shoko Nishimiya, a deaf girl he mistreated during elementary school. What begins as a tale of redemption slowly unfolds into a moving exploration of loneliness, anxiety, friendship, and the consequences of our actions. Kyoto Animation's visuals are breathtaking from beginning to end. Every frame is beautifully animated, with expressive character acting, gorgeous lighting, and subtle visual symbolism that enhances the emotional storytelling. The film's use of silence and sound design is especially remarkable, allowing viewers to experience moments from Shoko's perspective in a thoughtful and respectful way. The soundtrack, composed by Kensuke Ushio, perfectly complements the film's atmosphere. Gentle piano melodies and ambient music create emotional scenes without ever feeling manipulative or overwhelming. The characters are realistically written, with strengths and flaws that make them feel like genuine people. Shoya's struggle with guilt and self-hatred is portrayed with incredible nuance, while Shoko's quiet resilience leaves a lasting impression. Even the supporting cast contributes to the themes of communication, empathy, and personal growth. The pacing is steady and reflective, allowing emotional moments to resonate naturally. Although some side characters could have received additional development compared to the original manga, the film remains remarkably cohesive and impactful. Above all, A Silent Voice delivers a hopeful message: people can grow, change, and seek forgiveness, even if the past can never be erased. It reminds viewers that understanding one another begins with listening—not only with our ears, but with compassion.

LOVE THIS SO FREAKING MUCH

A really nice movie, though i would love it more if it were in rhe form of TV series that consists of 1w episode to dig deeper into each character

A must watch for any anime lover.

mo bom

This is a must watch if you are into redemption arcs and tragedies. Can't tell you how many times I bawled my eyes out my eyes out every time I watch the movie, especially during the 3rd act of the movie.

A truly excellent movie, it sent my emotions into a rollercoaster of ups and downs. Each character is portrayed appropriately, with no one being overly dominant. The storytelling is also heartfelt, as its premise resonates with everyday life. While the animation style isn't my cup of tea, it's still enjoyable to watch.

This movie hits really different emotionally. It’s not loud or dramatic, but very quiet and heavy in meaning. The way it shows guilt, bullying, and trying to change yourself feels real and uncomfortable in a good way. It stays with you after watching.

Una película de inocencia y sufrimiento puro y duro, del que de una manera muy natural nace el amor. Muy dolorosa, los personajes de alguna manera buscan redención y un sentido para vivir. Dentro de todo ese difícil pero muy de naturaleza humana trama, es una película de amor.

great movie, you got to watch it once, i recommend to you 10/10
