as if it were just any other movie by well-known Japanese animation company Studio Ghibli. But truly, the post should come with a warning.
Everything after this point recounts their wartime tale, as they try, and inevitably fail, to survive against the elements and ultimately, a battle against starvation near the end of World War II or, were this any other anime, any other early-20th-century war.It’s this struggle and inevitable failure for Seita and Setsuko to survive that ultimately rends hearts.
