I wanted to relax and watch the animation, but I didn't expect this animation to make me feel a lot heavy.

The whole film is completely immersed in a dark, sad atmosphere and proceeds quietly. The story tells that in Japan during World War II, two brothers and sisters became orphans of the war. They couldn't bear their aunt's scorn and went to live in a nearby abandoned bomb shelter. Although they were extremely strong to survive, they could not escape the torture of starvation and died one after another. .

"On the evening of September 21, Showa 20, I died." At the beginning of the film, a tragic tone was set, so that the audience must be immersed in it to achieve a tragic effect, lying at the exit of the passage, enduring the grief of losing a loved one and Died after multiple tortures of starvation and cold. The audience followed the protagonist's undead to recall the past, the once happy life, the ruthless war, the icy human affection, the two brothers and sisters who depended on each other for life, and the two brothers and sisters who made fun of hardships. The film finally ends in a modern and prosperous city under the gaze of the protagonist's undead.

The most worth mentioning is the soundtrack of the film, which is very beautiful and tear-jerking. If you shed tears watching this film, half of the credit is due to the soundtrack.
