Plot
Dual and Dorothy are two programs that reside within the Box of Wisdom. Their job is to enter the various worlds containing the memories of people across many timelines, deleting worlds that become infected with viruses. One day, they come across Remo, a girl who has lost memory of who she is, who is searching for something known as the flower garden. While trying to figure out who she is, Dual and Dorothy spend time with Remo, learning to find joy in various things that they'd normally deem pointless. However, they soon begin to learn not only about Remo's true purpose but also about the state of the world outside of their box.
Theron Martin of Anime News Network gave the film an overall B rating, praising the film's outstanding background art and cuteness, but criticizing the story for not realizing the potential of its serious tones and being overall too condensed.[8]Garakowa: Restore the World grossed $43,000 at the box office.[1]
