Gin no Saji (Silver Spoon) is a coming-of-age story about a city boy who enrolls at an agriculture specialty high school to escape the societal pressure of city life. After two successful anime seasons, a live action movie adaptation soon followed, but how do they compare?

The characters in Silver Spoon know exactly where their meat comes from - the animals they’ve raised with their own hands. But how can you eat something after having watched it grow up?

Gin no Saji (Silver Spoon) is a rare anime and in a class of its own. Despite nestling into the very crowded slice of life genre, this anime focuses on the unusual yet interesting world of Japan’s agricultural high schools. The characters within are as full of life as the animals they care for!
