One in A Hundred Thousand is a romantic drama adapted from Kaho Miyasaka’s manga, focusing on a girl diagnosed with ALS and her emotional journey with Ren, the boy who loves her. While the film delivers a neatly structured narrative and strong performances, it leans more on Ren’s perspective than exploring the depth of the illness like One Litre of Tears. With moving music, well-composed shots, and a heartwarming ending, this film offers a touching portrayal of unconditional love and quiet strength.
