"Thank you for finding me in the corner of this world." Although it is only a substitute, the hearts of two people can finally come together, and don't let them separate when they encounter anything. In the fire of war, they still gathered together with smiling faces, looking for a way to survive in the ruins. In today's peaceful world, there are lonely wandering souls everywhere.
The most terrifying thing was that Suzuko took Harumi to the hospital to see her father-in-law when they encountered an air raid on the way back, and hid in someone else's air-raid shelter. The white light of the atomic bomb across the sky, the mushroom cloud rising from the dead silence, and many lives that once worked hard to live, disappeared in an instant at that moment. In the typhoon after the war, people laughed and ridiculed why such a violent wind and rain did not come during the war, and it was only after it was over. With one hand the child feebly drove the flies away, while the other held the rotting corpse of the amputated mother, the maggots pouring out of her ears like water.
The demeanor and actions of the characters are so realistically portrayed, and the protagonist has a strong sense of substitution. Using a warm painting style to depict the cold war, on the contrary, it sets off the tenacity of human nature to be strong and profound. And the brutality and ruthlessness of the war is becoming more and more real. When piles of cannonballs fall, it seems that my home will be razed to the ground.
