All About Lily Chou-Chou is a masterpiece, both in story and directing style. It is a realistic story, Iwai Shunji didn’t try to make the characters idealistic or fill them with cartoonish troupes you probably thought you’d find in them. The characters are all people you definitely encountered in your life, you might even be one of them. I know I am. Even if you hated the characters because they are "buzzword", you still should admit that the storyline was phenomenal as Iwai delving deep down the psyches of these relatable youths. His trademark directing style and camerawork enhanced the atmosphere immensely, personally I was so absorbed the first time I watched it that I couldn’t believe it already ended by the time the credits rolled. Without a shadow of a doubt a masterpiece.

Not that guy, but I highly recommend checking Iwai's other works, if not all of them, then the notable ones other than Chou-Chou.
