I cannot thank you enough for bringing this series some level of attention! It's been years and I still find myself thinking about this anime from time to time. I even have the full manga collection. It has its flaws (and god I definitely purposely forgot the existence of Love Story, Killed for a reason) but there's something very poignant about it all, and it's one of the few stories I know that I would consider a beautiful tragedy in its own way. Thanks again for this video!
OMG THANK YOU!!!! The manga was a cornerstone to me getting into comics in the first place. The way emotion is communicated visually, going into extreme minimal at points, just amazing. Sure, it's flawed, but the craftsmanship is steller.
I vaguely remember the live-action movie, it was weird, and at the end Japan was a Mad Max like wasteland, with what remains of her as a statue, kinda. Also watched the live-action "Casshern" movie, which was also very weird, but better, there's some good character-drama & music. What connects them both? The very strange visual effects!
6:33 Outdated? Didn't this guy literally watch his friend get airstriked and die a horrible painful death right in front of him? That radicalizes people.
Oh nostalgia :D I randomly remember this anime and I swear nobody else knows about it so they think I made it up. I think some of the imagery is very iconic with transformed Chise
thanks guy! I have finished the anime today and I like to search for good reviews, and I thought I would't find anyone but hopefully you have done an amazing review that covers the most important parts of the anime. So really thanks for doing it. I'm so happy to see people interested in this anime despite the time it was released. I really needed to release my feelings after finishing it and this video made me feel they could rest in peace. So thanks, I feel a lil more relieved now knowing I sealed an unforgettable memory. Wish prsperity for you and your channel!!
i have forgot about this anime for years and just tried to ask my friends who watched it and what it was called no one could tell me!!! Very happy this video came up in my TL great video and so hyped to rewatch this series now i know what its called
So what is wrong if the narration is done by a man's perspective? Who give's a rats butt? I thought this review is going to be objective and celebrate what the theme of the anime, then it went stupid and woke. What a waste.
