Tamako Market

Like So Ra No Wo To, Tamako Market is a story about girls' friendships and healing through communality. In particular, the characters in these stories act joyfully in beautifully rendered backgrounds and atmosphere, emotional ambience, and tightly built settings. And yet, even with the jubilant character animation and lighthearted tales, there is an undercurrent of loss, sadness, and a longing for the past that adds a bittersweet tang to every smile. So Ra No Wo To as well as Tamako Market (in subtler ways) are full of mindful joy we must find in the world through reconciliation, acceptance, and letting go.
