It's a great film. It made me cry, but still glad I watched it. It's one of those rare pieces of media that have a profound impact.

Originally, it was released as a double feature with my neighbor totoro and both films have interesting parallels.

Upper with the downer.

That's the Miyazaki speedball.

Grave of the Fireflies was actually directed by the cofounder Isao Takahata who generally played more of a producer role but did this and The Tale of Princess Kaguya, which are much more subdued compared to Miyazaki's works, but no less emotional. He was also the artistic producer on The Red Turtle, a co-production between Ghibli and a few French studios, which I would highly recommend watching. Very quiet. Very beautiful.
