History YMMV / BigFishAndBegonia

* SoOKItsAverage: Despite having a pretty generous reception on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie is considered a solid "OK" in Chinese reviews. Most Chinese viewers found the art and direction excellent, but the story shallow, cliche, and unlikable.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: The movie has really fluid animation and beautiful scenery that it rivals many ''Creator/StudioGhibli'' movies.
** Natural, seeing as this movie was animated by Studio Mir, the team behind ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra''.
* DesignatedHero: Viewers see Chun as this, as she tends to lack any depth and only does things just to move the plot forward. Her devotion to keep Kun alive has also [[spoiler:indirectly caused destruction onto the Spirit World and the lack of remorse or gratitude after everything Qiu has done for her can make her come off as UnintentionallyUnsympathetic.]] Viewers actually find ''Qiu'' a more fitting protagonist for having CharacterDevelopment and [[spoiler:being TheWoobie at the end as his love for Chun becomes unrequited and he pulls off a HeroicSacrifice to allow Chun to live in the human world with Kun.]]

* TearJerker: [[spoiler:Qiu's death at the end of the movie.]]
** [[spoiler: Kun's death after he saves Chun. He barely knew her but didn't hesitate to save her life during a storm. Just the scene where Chun finds his dead body makes it even sadder especially when his sister is crying her eyes out calling for him to come back.]]
