Good enough ? I would divide this anime

Good enough ? I would divide this anime into two parts: the first one was dedicated to the girl's early life, marriage and family. The second, the most emotional one, focuses on how simple citizens were affected by the war. The story itself is simple, with no as much of a surprise as to what will happen. But, because it's humane and simple, it captures the audience's attention. Easy to follow and easy to sympathise with the heroes, the movie doesn't overdo it with the war horrors, though the bombing scenes were too long. But, then again, maybe they had to in order to show what the civilians had to go through. I also enjoyed the fact that it wasn't just a historical film, but it also followed the girl's story and her relationship with her new family and her husband. One thing that didn't work for me, however, was that at some points the movie just rushed things and got a bit confusing, like showing one scene after the other. But, overall, a great movie, so 3.5 out of 5.

At least it was far better than Hayao

At least it was far better than Hayao Miyazaki’s The Wind Rises. While it is true that they were victims, the fact that many others suffered far greater harm because of them is only touched on very briefly.
