A powerful and sad story about mans inhumanity to man (and children) and the devastation that war causes. No happy ending! But this is true for so many innocents who are caught up in tragic war situations.

An anime masterpiece. A little mawkish for my liking, but there’s no denying it’s reputation as one of the greatest animations, and greatest war films of all time.

I bought the product because i like the animation made by Hayao Miyazaki he is one of my favirit directors and i loved all his works of animation and grave of fireflies is one of the best animation that i have ever seen. i love this anime very very much.
This is a harrowing tale that should be told. It shows what happens when civilians are killed during war. Seita and Setsuko, two orphans as a result of American bombing, have to survive in an unfriendly world. This film is not just a protest against war, but a protest against the dark side of human nature that can so easily crush the most courageous spirit. If you have children, wait until they are old enough to understand adult concepts of life and death before they watch this. It's not a kids film!
