Films set during WWII Japan.
Giovanni's Island tells a more extraordinary story compared to the slice-of-life In This Corner of the World.
Similar art style, interspersed with traditional folk/children's songs.
- Both have similar art styles and are set in the WW2 Era in Japan, albeit on opposite sides of the country.
- Emotional.
- Focusing on young people.
Both are set in WW2 era Japan. The art style is similar with compelling storytelling. What strikes the most is that if you watch "In This Corner of the World" first and then immediately follow up with "Giovanni's Island", it feels like a continuation of the same story with a different POV.
