But it just ended up cheesy really, compared to simpler ballads like SEASONS and Dearest. The lyrics were really the only good thing about Voyage (tsuki ni shizumu could have been a much better movie too, with such a sweet & creative concept. It just ended up being nonsensical and had way too many plot holes... it needed to be longer, i think). I'm not gonna lie and say I don't have high hopes for the song, but my expectations are pretty low. If it's really good and really creative, I'll be VERY happy with it and very pleasantly surprised.

Voyage sold very well despite the extremely weak Japanese market in the winter of 2002.
And I agree, I wish the movie was longer. Showing more of how Ayu ended up in the mental institution, and more of about her relation with Sonshin. I guess budget problems forced it to be short
