Grave of the Fireflies (1988)

15 Oct

This is the 1st time I watched an anime with a
very sad ending. And to tell the truth, my eyes were partially filled with
tears and I almost give in to cry but I manage to control it and it wasn’t easy.

In most war films, the stories were about how the soldiers
from different countries, fighting each other to gain more power or freedom.
They will show how the soldiers suffered and their struggle in their aim of
obtaining the country’s independence. But this anime is different from that
type of war film.

It concentrates on the effect of the war on the civilian
involved, especially the 2 main characters; a young boy and his younger sister.
Their father passed away on duty (he’s a Navy) while their mother died because
of the air raid. Since then, they lived with their aunt but after a while, the aunt
doesn’t like them to stay with her because of the extra mouth to feed. So the
siblings have to struggle on their own to survive in Japan during World War II.

That little girl is so cute and you can see how close is their relationship while trying to survive all the hardship of life.

The happy news for today is I found out that BoA is one of the 30 hottest Asian celebs!!! How cool is that!!!!!!!! OMG, so proud of her. It’s like somebody telling me that my child is one of the 30 best student in the world. BoA Rock!!!!

And this is what they said, “You can’t speak about K-Pop without this lovely lady!” Yea man!!
