Absolutely heartbreaking ...

Rating: Null/10 (5 August 2001)

It's impossible to watch this film without crying. Even after it is over, you are left with a hovering depression, yet a new window on war, survival, love, and life. This is the most realistic anime feature I've ever seen, and definitely the most emotional. "Grave of the Fireflies" was recommended to me at a board, and I purchased it in English last month at Anime Expo. A find such as this is rare. Anime fan or not, I urge you to see it. It will change you forever.
