Heh, No I wouldn't call it a Chick Flick Trip, It's one of the few films I've seen that handles it's romantic-tinged plot with maturity, and shows how tragic falling in love can be... Plus, the kids do it under a Cedar Tree oOo:

Christ, there's one bit in the film, and I hope I don't spoil it... But it's a flashback that Ishmael is having, of him running up a Japanese held beach in the Pacific, He falls... and then the camera glides past his head on the sand, and you can see him and Hatsue as children running on "the same beach" I tell ya, the flashbacks and cinematography and music are sooooo good...

Totally, mindblowing film experience...
