It's gonna rain again.... Ty for posting the part 2.

Rem is best waifu

Here we go with part 2. I am Glad I waited to watch the first part today bc I love emotional animes but it wouldn't feel the same if I had to wait a week for a movie to finish.

Sean

who watches half a movie then the other half a week later

And in the end it was Pride that killed them, the mc was to prideful to go apologize to the aunt and try doing their part in the house., i don't feel sorry for him but the sister i feel sorry for.

FaerieRose

This movie is semi-autobiographical. It’s the real life brother’s apology for his stubbornness causing his little sister’s death.

I know you said you don't want to react to more movies like these, but if you ever decide to give one another go watch Hadashi no Gen. It's also about the Pacific war, but focused on another aspect of it.

Bersain Balbuena

Luke, I suggest watching a movie every time you finish a Patreon series. You're missing out on some real gems. I suggest: Redline. Paprika. Perfect Blue. Ghost in the Shell. Wolf Children. Akira.

Unfixedsj

Next not safe for twitch movie should be Wolfchildren. Idk how many actually watched your reaction rather than just voting to have you see this movie for your self.

I watched this movie when I was 9 years old a had a little sister 5 years younger than me. This movie traumatised me for a while. It was miserable. Should have left the room after the first thing in the movie was the boy saying the date that he died.

smth positive_

You didn’t watch it alone indeed. Getting to watch the cheekiness that is Highschool DxD is well earned after this I would say

The movies, Paprika, Perfect Blue, Tokyo Godfathers & series, Paranoia Agent (you did the OP for that) were from the director Satoshi Kon. His works were so unique , thought provoking & were symbolic for the viewer draw their own interpretation. Sadly, he passed away in 2010 at 46 from pancreatic cancer. Considering how soon he left us, his accomplishments were remarkable.

When we'll start Shangri-la frontier?

Rickkk

i watched this movie when i was young. So i didnt remember that the brother was a retard.

Pain.

bro im waiting for High school DxD UPLOAD PLS LUKE....

Joshua Vaughn

Sister leveling season 3 just dropped

Yero19

I would like to know that too Luke!!!

Remember that the story is both an apology to the author's younger sister and a self-punishment for having survived. The feeling that Seita could have done more, could have apologized to his aunt, could have done so many things, is exactly what the author wants you to feel toward the character and, by extension, himself. Now Luke, what about Shangri-La Frontier???

Anacik Gabriel

The one who's watching them with his gf which will fall asleep in the middle and then will not have time to resume until week later. Which is not luke in this case but i needed to get it of my chest lmao

Anacik Gabriel

Also, there is an live action version but from aunt perspective, explaining how shes the way she is.

Roxy’s Holy Relic

Would love to see more movie reactions on Patreon. There are a lot of fantastic anime movies out there that aren’t safe for other platforms

Arctic_Hokkyoku

the kara no Kyoukai movies for one. Those are a part of the fate series but not safe for anywhere else because they are so dark

Lu C

Not just anime gems but cinematographic ones.

Director Takahata's comment: “If the times were reversed again, would we be able to maintain the feelings we now have for Seita? Would we not be swept away by totalitarianism? I have a horrible feeling that we would not only become Seita, but we would denounce him even more than his widow.“ In Japan today, there are many opinions that criticize Seita, just as the director feared.

The "mc" is a 14yo boy. In which world, a child should know how to perfectly handle a war, a mourning of his 2 parents, and how to care a 9yo girl. He's just a child. So yes, he makes mistakes and sometimes acts like...a 14 young boy. The aunt was the adult here. I blame her more for not fulfilling her adult role. It was her responsability. Not his.

Ryuk2501

I second Ghost in the Shell.

Sunami Stelling

I remember screaming at the screen for Seita to return to their aunt. I wonder if she would even have taken them back? Upon this rewatch, I saw that the little girl already had the malnutrition rash, even at their aunt's. She was slowly killing them too. She was the adult, though. She should never have let them leave. I'm a historian, and people often ask why I research such depressing things. My answer is this. "Someone has to remember these stories. They were people, and if we forget, they die all over again." If we as a society learn from past mistakes, then maybe those deaths were not in vain. It's our collective responsibility.

Kevin V

One of my most disliked movies ever. Why would people recommend this to Luke? The movie is just awful. I usually get backlash from this, but I don't find the movie sad. If anything, it's very disturbing and annoying. The main character's pride killed his little sister. At his age, he should already know what's best for her. I have a little sister and if I had beg in my knees in order to protect her I would do it a million times. Fucking brat.

Now watch in this corner of the world

When I see this film as a child, I feel sorry for Seita and think his aunt is a terrible person. As an adult, however, one's opinion reverses, and one begins to sympathize with the aunt's situation and criticize Seita. But think about it. Seita is a “child” who has lost his parents and has a little sister. His aunt's sermon is a good argument, but were her words appropriate to guide a child with no relatives? It is war and the people of that era who are unable to care for even the children who need kindness the most.

Kevin V

The aunt was insensitive and a jerk, but you gotta do whatever to survive, and that includes apologizing even if you don't have to. At 14, in an ongoing struggle like war, and being in charge of someone younger than you makes you mature really fast. Heck, I wasn't even close to Seita's situation, but we didn't grow up with our dad so I had to step up for my little sister from a young age. Seita could have protected his sister by swallowing his pride, but he decided not to.

Vicente Machuca

you can see in the first half, when she was serving them meals, a soup with rice, to them was only soup, and real food for the family, they would have died of malnutrition in that house, min 37:15 of part 1, the movie makes a point in showing directly so it can´t be a mistake

Probably not a lot of people will agree with me on this one, but Grave of Fireflies is one of my top ones when it comes to Studio Ghibli movies. I prefer the harsh straightforwardness even if it's a tough and emotional watch rather than the very fantasy-driven but with lots of hidden meanings/symbolism. I do like my share of fantasy and do like other Studio Ghibli movies though, it's just that Grave of Fireflies is one i prefer more over the others.

This film to me is such a raw portrayal of a humanity in a bleak situation. It's not about who's to blame, what the correct action was, etc. It's just a tragedy these things happen. It's a different kind of sad compared to, e.g. Violet Evergarden or Angel Beats. Those give you a cathartic emotional release. Grave of the Fireflies just leaves you with a heavy heart.

Kevin... The main character is a real person. This is bsed on a personal story, this really happened. But the brother wasn't nearly as kind and doting as the movie. Youth and ignorance brought the sister to an end. Would you have done the same for a child? The real world is disturbing. All of this really happened. You can dislike the movie because it makes you upset and uncomfortable, but we can't change the past. Maybe do a little research too next time.

Kevin V

I already knew everything you mentioned, and it didn't change my opinion on the movie or the characters. Just because it's real life events doesn't mean I have to go along with their actions. Heck, if it was fiction I would be less pissed at the main character.

Well ... what makes the movie even worse is when a japanese (of the modern day) explains how they (older siblings) re raised to take care of young siblings. I know we, westerners, are raised in a similar way ... but its another league ... and that goes for current day japanese. Thinking of the shame, despair and sadness he must have felt is ... unbearable. H8 U for watching this - gonna go cry into a pilllow

God E.N.D

From personal experience as a 4/5 year old that lost his parents, became homeless with a sister. As a boy it felt natural to take care of the younger sibling like my sister that was 3 at the time. But a sad reality is a boy my age doesn't understand how the real world works at a very young age except find food and survive but sadly it's a brutal world we live in and nobody really wants to help out the struggling as they're probably struggling too so sadly my sister did die from starvation and I barely survived. Probably why I connect to this movie so much as it kinda makes me relive my childhood. Anyways it's life and we all have to move on and find peace in our own way. 🫡 You're also correct regret will probably never leave me as in my head, it's always. "You're should've done more and more"

God E.N.D

Such a sad movie, but the saddest reality is people will go through these tragedy forever.

I see many foreigners who have seen the film feeling resentment toward Auntie, and some Japanese also feel the same way about her. However, apart from the current values of “how people should be,” Auntie was actually normal and Seita was abnormal in the sense of values at that time. Auntie was protecting her family and trying to protect Seita. Essentially, at Seita's age he was old enough to have to attend school in order to join the army. Regardless of the fact that his parents were dead, it was a national duty. Naturally, Auntie's family would be looked upon strangely by their neighbors for letting Seita stay with them. The government would have taken notice, and they could have been arrested for treason. At that time in Japan, it was a matter of course to give everything “for the sake of the country and the emperor”. Given these considerations, you may see Auntie in a different light. It was a really complicated movie😢
