The world premiere of the film was in October 2015, at the Tokyo International Film Festival. [3] The film was then released in Japan on November 21, 2015. [4]
Peter Debruge of Variety called the film a "dreary study of human-robot relations [that] offers little to engage apart from its pretty scenery." [2]
Deborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter called the film a "dark, hopeless and pretty depressing [...] post-apocalyptic Japanese mood piece". [1]
The film was in competition at the 2015 Tokyo International Film Festival. [3]
