A nice and sweet slice-of-life, with a touch of fantasy-adventure. It is too short to expect a detailed story or deep characters, but it doesn't matter. We see just enough to understand the main characters and their relationship, and they feel as real as random boys.

The visuals are far better than average series, and even better than many featured films. I especially liked the attention to lights and backgrounds.

Not a masterpiece, not at all original, but beautiful and sincere.

Taifuu no Noruda is a short movie. It is contemporary fantasy I would say, the whole story plays out only at a middle school. It starts with Kenta Saijou watching a nude girl fly out of the window. Then there is this typhoon that starts the whole adventure with Saijou, Azuma and that girl, off.

Art & Animation
The art is pretty nicely done, nothing special, but nothing too ugly either. I didn't see any obviously rendered passages, there were many nice little details. The character-design is nicely done, either, but I like how the girl is shown to be under influence. There is a spacecraft in there, it reminds me of something, but I can't point my finger at what it is. I think I have seen a similar spacecraft somewhere else.

Sound
I liked the music it was never annoying, it always guided through the whole thing, and the ending was good, too. At one point I really liked the music, but I can fall into piano-music all the time, that's a plus. The voices fitted the characters and I liked the fact that Saijou knew who was crying out by the girls voice.

Story
Well, it is a fantasy story on a little island that goes on for only 20 minutes. It was fast and it tells a little thing but of course it's not the story of a whole series. On the other hand I have seen series with much less story in it. There is this boy, Saijou that sees a girl fly out the window and that is in a fight with his best friend Azuma. Later we find out that they are not that far from each other and that they can be friends, still. Saijou finds a girl in a storm and helps her. He finds out she has to do something to the world, even though I didn't understand if it would destroy the world or not and that she is controlled by her necklace.

I liked it, it was the kind of story that is easy enough to tell in 20 minutes but not stupid enough to be not interesting. As I said it is told fastly and doesn't get boring in between in my opinion but it is a little short.

Character
Well, the characters where only there for 20 minutes, but I think there was a good base with Saijou and Azuma fighting over Saijou not wanting to go on with baseball, while being friends in fact and it gets explained later on why he did it that way. The mysterious girl is nicely done, too, she is mysterious for all the time, I don't feel like I should know more about her then I do.

Value
Well, you don't learn anything totally new from it. Well you can see that sometimes there is a reason behind a decision, but sometimes it's just a feeling, too. Like the two decisions Saijou did in this short episode. I don't think it was wasted time in any way.

Enjoyment
All in all, I for myself liked it very much. It was a little short but it was OK. It's nothing I would show off to my friends on the other hand, but if you like fantasy and short movies, you are totally right here.

Sorry for the short review here, but the movie is just not long enough to give any more information without spoilers.

add/edit tags
· nudityNudity is the state of wearing no clothing and exposing the bare skin or intimate parts. NO FRONTAL NUDITY (visible genitals) = 1.5 STARS OR LESS. Especially gratuitous fanservice shows tend to show their characters frequently without any clothes, though often hiding genitals through the means of additions like steam. +
· violenceViolence is the use of physical force against oneself or another entity, compelling action against one`s will on pain of being hurt. *
· fast-pacedHold onto your hats, this anime`s storyline is relentless. The characters don`t get time to take a breath as events keep both them and the viewer on a roller coaster ride of revelation and excitement! Hopefully it all makes sense... weightless
· adventureAdventures are exciting stories, designed to provide an action-filled, energetic experience for the viewer. Rather than the predominant emphasis on violence and fighting, the viewer of adventures can live vicariously through the travels, conquests, explorations, creation of empires, struggles and situations that confront the main characters. Adventure films are often, but not always, set in an historical period. *+
· ecchiEcchi, or etchi (エッチ), is a common Japanese word meaning "indecent", "lewd", "frisky" or "sexy"; its usage can be compared to the English word "naughty". Among western anime fans, the term is used when vague sexual content, such as skimpy clothing or nudity, is prominent. In Japanese, however, it is a catch-all term for all things anyhow sexual in nature, mild or otherwise. +
· · sudden naked girl appearanceA character or group of characters are simply minding their own business, when suddenly, a naked girl appears. It does not matter how or why, but a naked someone is there. Sometimes the naked girl is not happy about this. Usually this is a fanservice element, but not always. weightless
· speculative fictionSpeculative fiction is an umbrella genre encompassing fiction with certain elements that do not exist in the real world, often in the context of supernatural, futuristic or other imaginative themes. This includes, but is not limited to, science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, horror, utopian and dystopian fiction, fairytale fantasy, supernatural fiction, as well as combinations thereof.
· · science fictionScience fiction stories usually focus on how situations could be different in the future when we are more technologically advanced; due to either our own achievements or having met with other civilizations whom we have learned from. ***
· · · alienThis entity or creature was born on another world than the main characters. ***
· · · · humanoid alienHumanoids are aliens, intelligent beings who do not originate from Earth, but have a striking similarity to humans or at least show the basic body layout, i.e. two arms and legs, head with two eyes and ears, one nose and mouth. Though the latter - head-related features - may vary. As "DearS" shows some aliens actually exhibit super-human beauty, or as in the case of "Onegai Teacher" they are genetically compatible to humans for some strange reason. ***
· · · mechaMecha in Japanese basically means mechanical things; everything from an electric whisk or a car to a spaceship or a robot. Here however we limit it to the more exotic things usually referred to as mecha anime: robots, whether controlled by a human or not, and their ilk. +
· · · · robotA robot is an automatically guided machine, able to do tasks on its own. Another common characteristic is that by its appearance or movements, a robot often conveys a sense that it has intent or agency of its own. Not to be confused with android (human-like robot). +
· · · · · transforming craftA transforming craft is an object built by humans or other intelligent lifeforms, usually a robot but sometimes also a vehicle of some sort, that can rearrange its parts in order to switch between a minimum of two forms. +
· · · terraformingTerraforming (literally, "Earth-shaping") of a planet, moon, or other body is the hypothetical process of deliberately modifying its atmosphere, temperature, surface topography or ecology to be similar to the biosphere of Earth, in order to make it habitable by humans. (Source: Wikipedia) weightless
· Japanese productionno description set weightless
· newNot based on anything, the story is a new work, usually made up by the people involved in creating the anime. Generally if an original work (原作) credit is given, it will be to the studio, or director, or other members of the production team. weightless
· placeThe places the anime can take place in. Includes more specific places such as a country on Earth, as well as more general places such as a dystopia or a mirror world.
· · EarthThe Earth is the third planet from the Sun. It is a ball of hot mud, but on the surface it`s cold enough, so most of us live on it (or are supposed to). To its inhabitants, our planet is their home, so, as a species, we cherish it to the point many cultures even to this day deify it. The Earth is the main setting of most fiction, but many titles are set in other places, such as unrelated fantasy worlds, and in a considerable number of fictional titles the Earth is actually destroyed by invaders. ***
· · · AsiaAsia is Earth`s largest and most populous continent. Asia covers an area of 44,579,000 square kilometers. The continent, which has long been home to the majority of the human population, was the site of many of the first civilizations. Asia is notable for not only its overall large size and population, but also dense and large settlements as well as vast barely populated regions within the continent of 4.4 billion people. ***
· · · · JapanJapan is a sovereign island nation in East Asia. Located in the Pacific Ocean, it lies off the eastern coast of the Asian mainland and stretches from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea and China in the southwest. ***
· multi-anime projectsMany anime are created as part of larger projects encompassing many shows without direct relation to one another. Normally, there is a specific idea in mind: for example, the Young Animator Training Project aims to stimulate the on-the-job training of next-generation professionals of the anime industry, whereas the World Masterpiece Theatre aims to animate classical stories from all over the world.
· · noitaminAnoitaminA is a Fuji Television programming block devoted to anime, with the intention of expanding the target audience beyond the typical young male demographic. weightless
· short movieTypically used when an OVA only has one part and is less than the usual 20 to 25 minutes in length. So instead of calling it a `short episode`, the `short movie` tag is more appropriate. weightless
· damsel in distressThe damsel in distress is usually a young, nubile woman placed in a dire predicament by a villain or a monster and requires a hero to dash to her rescue. Often used to unite the cast of a show for this one goal, to make them put differences aside and become a band of nakama. Examples: Sakoshita Yanagi from Rekka no Honoo, Yuuki Miaka from Fushigi Yuugi or Higurashi Kagome from Inuyasha. weightless
· disasterA disaster is a large-scale situation that causes great loss of or damage or threat to life, health, property, society, or the environment, irrespective of its source or cause. Disasters have substantial, long-lasting negative repercussions, and great effort must be spent in order to undo or mitigate their effects. *
· · typhoonA typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops in the north-western part of the Pacific Ocean between 180° and 100°E. This region is referred to as the north-west Pacific basin. Identical phenomena in the eastern north Pacific are called hurricanes, with tropical cyclones moving into the western Pacific re-designated as typhoons. (Source: Wikipedia) weightless
· friendshipThe feeling of trust, kindness, and friendship between a group of high school students for example, is a central theme of this anime. **
· saving the worldWhile villains love to take over the world or cause the end of the world as we know it, the heroes are most likely motivated by the polar opposite, saving the world. A fairly simple plot/motivation related to for great justice and what not, this trope is pretty broad and very common for many stories not focused on character interaction only. weightless
· school lifeSince a large part of the anime audience still takes part in school life or is visiting college, it is only natural to choose a setting the audience can identify with, be it elementary, middle, or high school. For the older viewers a college setting with more mature real-life problems is appropriate. And since clubs take up so much time in the lives of students, these are obviously also important. +
· sportsSports anime revolves around a recreational physical activity or skill. In addition they often adhere to certain genre conventions, the emphasis on training and practice in preparation for competition, characters desire for self improvement, and pursuit of a specific goal. +
· · baseballBaseball is like a complicated version of Rounders. It involves hitting a ball with a stick, then running around several bases placed in the form of a diamond on a field. Big in the US, and also in Japan. +
school culture festivalThe obligatory school festival (or cultural fair) with cosplay cafe, haunted house, theatre performance, and food booths cannot be missing in any school setting. 1 eps applies to episode(s): 1
