  Grave of the Fireflies 1988

  ★★★★½ Watched 16 Mar 2025

  god DAMN this was a tear jerker. just heartbreaking and truly devastating.

  up there with the elephant man in terms of the emotion this brings out of me. just a truly truly tragic tale. and the thing is, stuff like this actually happened in real life. you can only put yourself in their shoes and imagine what you’d do in a scenario like this. until you realise there’s not much more to be done. it’s chilling stuff.

  a great start to what i believe to be the next trilogy, and noah for starters is a very likeable protagonist. is he better than caesar? no, but nobody will ever be. but does he do a good job as the successor? fuck yeah.
