It's a MASTERPIECE.

It's honestly amazing, it's so sad, yet amazing! It helps watchers like me grasp the poor Japanese situation during WW2 and the Hiroshima Bombing. We usually see Japan and it's people as having the best life, but they've been through so much. No matter what I say can change how amazing this anime/movie is!

  But we did get anime in return tho, so I guess it was a worthy trade-off.
