Résumés(1)
Après que le monde ait survécu à une catastrophe planétaire, « le Maelstrom », l’humanité a fondé une société parfaite où le bien-être de chacun est devenu la priorité absolue des pouvoirs publics, grâce à la nanotechnologie médicale. Dans ce monde trop parfait, trois jeunes filles prennent la decision de mettre fin à leurs jours pour dénoncer la sur-médication et la bonté totalitaire qui règnent dans la société. Mais cette tentative échoue. Dans années plus tard, l’une de ces trois filles, Tuan Kirie, est devenue agent de l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé, celle-là même qui porte l’idéal de la « santé pour tous ». Bien que Tuan s’interroge régulièrement sur le sens de son existence, elle est rappelée à la réalité pour enquêter sur le pire événement depuis le Maelstrom : le suicide simultané de plusieurs milliers de personnes.

This film is very stretched out, but it's quite good to watch in certain parts. You can see that even anime is evolving and the classic artwork has new elements, and it's more perfect in some ways. Graphically, the film is good, but I still think it's too long and the plot is not as interesting as it would like to be.

According to the premise, Harmony looks really interesting, even though the truth is that this movie is definitely not for everyone. There is a fair amount of philosophizing and dialogue in those two hours that are sometimes really quite heavy. The narrative drags incredibly in places, and if you are not interested in the ideas addressed here, you are probably going to be bored most of the time. The action is minimal, while Tuan Kirie, the main female protagonist’s musings, flashbacks, and conversations with other characters regarding the investigation and the state of the ideal society are more than enough. So if you are looking for an action movie, you had better stay away from this one! However, you might be interested in this, and if you like the ideas elaborated in this movie, you might even be very satisfied. You might enjoy this if you can and want to think a lot, are a passionate philosopher, psychologist, political scientist, or your favorite anime is something like From the New World. I, for one, end up more or less in the middle. I have seen it, I have hopefully understood most of it; I found it tedious at times, a little too thoughtful at times, and while I cannot deny that it has some thought-provoking qualities, it did not strike me as anything other than mediocre. The animation was interesting, although there was perhaps too much CGI. I quite liked the fact that the "ideal" city is dominated by shades of pink, which I thought was a metaphor, associated with the proverbial "rose-colored glasses" although somehow I do not know if that was the intention. I had no problem with the main character, Tuan Kirie, and I thought that the way her profound relationship with Miach Mihie was portrayed was quite good. On the whole, I had no significant problem with the psychology of the characters, which is quite important in a movie like this. Even the ending was quite good. All in all, this anime is definitely not just your average boring anime movie. I reckon that the reactions to it will be very contradictory because, as I wrote in the introduction, this is not for everyone. Unfortunately, it was not able to elicit any stronger response than 6/10 from a lazy ignoramus like me.
