Synopsis

This engaging series of childhood recollections tells about an ideal school in Tokyo during World War II that combined learning with fun, freedom, and love. This unusual school had old railroad cars for classrooms, and it was run by an extraordinary man—its founder and headmaster, Sousaku Kobayashi—who was a firm believer in freedom of expression and activity.

Genuinely surprised this movie was offered as part of the inflight entertainment system. Some scenes surely must have raised some eyebrows with the passengers who traveled besides me.

That said, I am a sucker for these types of movies. The movie starts out with excellent world-building, only to have the world be completely destroyed by the end of the movie. It's a tearjerker for sure.

What prevents me from rating it higher is that there were no moments that blew my mind, like plot twists or random moments in the movie that suddenly make sense afterwards. What I expected happened, and admittedly a little bit more.

Just aired in my country and obviously I had to instantly give it a go.

And this anime instantly exceeding my expectations, I cried at the theater because I failed to hold my tears.

BUT, I am a slice of life enjoyer and I strongly believe this anime isn't for everyone, if you didn't like slow pacing or SoL, I suggest that you skip this anime, I think people who only watches shounen will fell asleep.

But yeah, animation is charming and story is great but very depressing, this anime will put you through some sort of mixed emotion and you will probably think that thankfully ...
