Especially knowing the "fate" of Tokyo in Makoto Shinkai's previous movie. Where it was completely flooded/destroyed and abandoned. Throughout the entire scene I was wondering if it was just going to be wiped out if they failed. No bars held. 10/10 great scene.
@@Demmon98 For real. Honestly when I watch other pieces of media I have this lingering feeling that 'oh they're gonna be FINE they're the protags' but knowing how brutal Makoto can get, this scene was just so much more gut-wrenching.
@@dominothethird fr fr imagine if they had failed, died, and then had the opportunity to try to stop the worm from the afterlife with the help of the keystones entering the living world and dragging it back for them to seal it (random theorycraft). It would have been such a crazy twist, but the movie was perfect the way it went.
This is one of the most terrifying film scores I’ve ever heard. Combined with the horrifying realization Souta finally discovered, and the horrifying choice Suzume has to make with so much at stake, everything enhances the sheer terror of the scene and the score.
The moment Suzume made a hard decision about temporarily leaving the man she met a few days ago to save millions of people. This soundtrack in that scene is absolutely perfect.
``Nothing like that,'' she said, stabbing the chair and falling upside down. At this time, the innocent cat seemed annoyed. But that cat was a guardian deity for her...
Beautiful yet terrifying. It gives the feeling of impending doom whilst also showing how clueless everyone in Tokyo is, and the urgency of Suzume's actions.
Sota knew deep down all along that he had been turned into the keystone, but his love for Suzume helped him face this challenge and continue living. Suzume knew deep down all along that her mother was gone, but her love for Sota helped her face this pain and continue living. Such a perfect movie 😭
City destruction scenes have never gotten me to feel anything for the city or its fictional residents. This movie, with ost and directing in this scene, was the exception. Unbelievably emotional and raw.
it aint lowkey. This IS my favorite. I remember hearing it in theaters and for whatever reason it stuck out to me so much. Even the original Suzume that was released first, while it hit hard, it couldn't even compare to this. There's something so chilling and climatic about this ost. If you add in the scene in which this was playing its so much more dramatic.
