Arguably one of the saddest film every made.

Rating: 10/10 (27 February 2014)

You have been warned. There is a high chance that this movie will make you burst into tears. So.. get ready for your packages of tissue by your side.
Damn! Where should I begin.. Another movie that had the same profound emotional reaction for me is Hachi: A Dog's Tale. If you have learned about Hachi's tale, this one might touched you even more. It is an extremely sad story about a Japanese boy and his little sister during the WW2. Coincidentally, two of the most touching film for me so far are both from Japan. But this one has a much deeper message to get across to the audience.
Everyone should watch this movie. For it teaches you the REAL cost of war from a simple story. Also who are the real sufferers during a War. So in a way this is an anti-war animation.
It will be a painful experience to watch Grave of the Fireflies. But still you must watch it. Because this is one of those movie that will make a grown man weep like a baby.
