Before watching this work, I saw some bad movie reviews, and I finished reading it with doubts. Now I will say some of my own thoughts.
The animation depicts the life of an ordinary Japanese woman living in that era, so what is her understanding of war?
Life is getting more and more difficult, familiar people and even relatives are dying one by one, and government radio broadcasts continue to broadcast the war situation and air raid warnings.
It's just what I've learned from my own and others' experiences, as well as government propaganda.
So how does she feel about war? The will of the individual is as small as a drop in the ocean before the state. The right or wrong of the war is probably not something that can be considered at that time. The world that you can see is as big as what you see with your own eyes. Right or wrong may not be so important. The most important thing is to live, even if the hope of living is to win the war of aggression. Moreover, the will of the individual is only a drop in the ocean in the face of national interests, and the interests of the country are in the hands of a few people. How ironic.
After seeing a lot of people spraying the Emperor Yuyin, Ling cried after the broadcast, because all his previous persistence was meaningless, and the war was lost. However, if you think about it carefully, in fact, in Japan at that time, this was the true inner portrayal of most of the civilians who worked hard to live. Persevere for a certain ideal and give everything, even if the ideal is distorted, but I don't know it. Just like the Celestial Dynasty during the Cultural Revolution. Life is not your own life, not even your thoughts, but thoughts under the control of the state apparatus.
Speaking of which, I began to slowly feel that this is a very good work, very real. Modify a 5 star.
After seeing the content of the most popular short reviews, I simply wrote down some of my own thoughts, hoping to give people who accidentally turn to this review a movie perspective.
In this corner of the world, live bravely.
