The greatest anime of all

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2010)

In my opinion, this is the greatest anime movie of all time. Again, the Japanese psyche is always trying to deal with WWII, and this movie gives so much emotional weight to the destruction that war causes, regardless of what side you are one.
One cannot say that animation movies do not get you emotionally involved until you see this film. From the opening sequence, so craftly done, to how it all ties in at the end, this movie will pull at your heart.
Especially as it nears the end, when all hope is lost. Yes, there is not much hope in this film, as the circumstances get graver and graver till literally, all is lost. But in that sadness, the characters live on, and nothing is left to sugar coat the truth.
I give this film a 10 out of 10, because it left me speechless.
