No other director can mix both fantastic and mundane as well as Mamoru Hosoda. Though this movie has it downsides compared to his other works, like the messy pacing and structure and some unnecessary parts of the story that we don't even need. Even with examples like that, the worldbuilding is amazing, the visuals are such eye candy and really pops and it has some great themes: Self-realization of the MC, The very nature of man and the importance of Family relationships.
