One of the most important movies I’ve ever seen. And one I will never watch again. It broke me. No wonder it was double billed with My Neighbor Totoro.
This movie is absolutely remarkable.

The parts where he feels the need to defend the artists style and animation is because anime stuff wasn’t as mainstream back then; it was popular to crap on it because it looked different.
Never, ever, watch that movie without seriously thinking about the repercussions of watching it.
Do not ever watch it without some way to get out of the state that you will be in by the end of it.
I showed Grave of the Fireflies to a friend once and he said it sucked because the kids were dumb. I still can’t believe that he was being serious.
To this day I have never watched a studio ghibli movie because I saw this 20 years ago in a college film night and want no reminders from the animation style lol
Crazy it released as a double-feature in Japan with My Neighbor Totoro. Way to mess up kids.
I miss Roger Ebert
I watched this movie in college. First anime movie I ever saw. Started watching it waiting for the mushrooms to hit. Also first time I ever took mushrooms. My housemate also did some mushrooms. He kept laughing at the sad parts. I looked over and I could see my house mate was really the devil laughing at the kids’ misfortune. I was convinced he was the devil and I could see the truth because the mushrooms let me see his true nature. What a sad movie, probably not the best thing to watch on acid.
