Speechless...

Rating: Null/10 (4 September 1999)

This film will leave you speechless. And Anime fans, you're in for a treat. The animation looks very realistic (they use the soft brown edge process, not really used much more in anime) but the story... the story of war and it's effects on the innocent will make you feel broken hearted and feel for those who suffered in war. The film focuses on a brother and sister, who, after their mother dies in an air raid goes to live with their cruel aunt. Soon they can't take anymore of their aunt and decide to live on their own... but can they survive? This film will break you down and make you emotional... especially the end. The music fits perfectly... okay, I'll shut up now and let you go see this movie. Buy it, rent it, just see it. You'll never look at war the same way again.
