Forgive me for not seeing where the anti-war is, it's basically the victim's perspective, the heroine's sentence is really drunk to succumb to violence, I don't see where the reflection of the war is, it's not that I don't treat the Japanese people and Japan. Imperialism is divided, but in the context of the participation of all Japanese people in the war, who can escape the relationship, Japanese women work hard to support the fascist aggression of their fathers and husbands. This unilateral description of the changes in the lives of Japanese civilians during the war completely ignores the conditions of the people in the aggression areas, and also ignores the discussion of the root causes of the tragedy of the war. On the surface, it reflects the optimistic and indomitable spirit of the Japanese people. It is the narrow nationalism of the screenwriter, and there is no reflection at all at the end of the film. The most tragic thing is the barrage that generates empathy. It should really make up for the history of this era for you.
I admit that this film is very gentle, and the Japanese will probably cry when they see it, but as the people of the invaded country, I just feel very uncomfortable and disappointed after watching it.
