Without further ado, here's everything to know about Look Back!
Friendship blossoms as two unconnected girls find each other
Fujino is talented at creating comics, but not so much at drawing. Kyomoto is talented at drawing, but not so much at being someone who is very social, especially around her peers. Although these opposites have very little in common, once they both dig under the surface level, they find that there is more to both of them than meets the eye.
Not only do they explore the different creative processes that exist between them, but they also learn more about each other's past, creating a bond that can't be dissolved no matter what life throws in their direction.
Read more of what you can expect from the anime film below, via Crunchyroll:
"Popular, outgoing Fujino is celebrated by her classmates for her funny comics in the class newspaper. One day, her teacher asks her to share the space with Kyomoto, a truant recluse whose beautiful artwork sparks a competitive fervor in Fujino. What starts as jealousy transforms when Fujino realizes their shared passion for drawing.
Based on the acclaimed manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the creator of Chainsaw Man, Look Back captures the highs and lows of pursuing artistic excellence and the special bonds formed through creative collaboration. The heart-wrenching story is the stunning feature-length directorial debut from Kiyotaka Oshiyama that will leave you in tears and inspire you to chase your own artistic dreams."
