Critics consensus

“Fireworks seeks sparks in an ambitious blend of storytelling genres, but this misguided anime effort never truly takes flight.”

This is probably one of the worst anime films I've seen that got a theatrical release in America.

It's a treat to see a film about young love where the young lovers aren't wise beyond their years; instead, they're prone to making stupid mistakes out of inexperience and perfectly understandable fear.

A strange little movie that attempts the tricky feat of combining comedy, drama, sci-fi and romance, but it doesn't get those individual elements right so it never coheres as a whole.

"Fireworks" is a very entertaining anime that will put a smile on its audience through its simple but captivating romance and the surrealistic brush of the titular question.
