We discuss the 1988 anime classic, Grave of the Fireflies. It tells the story of a young boy and his little sister as they struggle to survive in Japan during World War II. Aside from some early levity regarding the name of the streaming service, "Crunchyroll," this is a heavy conversation and a bleak movie. Topics aside from war include malnutrition, pride and homelessness. The saddest movie Chris has ever seen concludes season 2.
