Entry: Voices of a Distant Star - A2383427
Author: RFJS__ - U524615

I haven't found a reference to this text box in the guidelines, so I'm not quite sure what sort of comments are required, but I'd like to ask whether anyone can confirm whether I got the word order right in 'Sahara Mizu'. More generally, is there too much about Shinkai's other works, and did I manage to get something of the tone of the anime across in this essentially factual Entry?

I've tried to provide plentiful background information as well as giving an idea of what 'Voices' is like; hence a lot of the entry isn't actually about Voices. However, I've called the entry 'Voices of a Distant Star' because that's what you'll see on the DVD cover should you ever purchase it. For a few minutes this Entry contained a link to an unofficial translation of the extended ending, but I was nervous about including it without the translator's permission, so I removed it; if you want me to go to the trouble of chasing up the translator, clamour! (Alternatively, just find the link on the 'Voices of a Distant Star' page at animeondvd.com.)
