Customer Ratings & Reviews

I am a big Studio Ghibli fan and this keeps the standards that fans come to have. It's eye opening for anyone that does not know about the war.

this movie completely surprised me with all these feelings, i just cant handle it! the best tears

Get the tissues out and get ready for the most saddest.film ever I didn't know how much this movie would pull the strings so be warned

Grave of the Fireflies delivers an emotional rollercoaster of a story, centered around two young children struggling to survive in a war-torn Japan. Highly recommend this film!

There's a reason why everyone rates this the top a Studio Ghinli movie...highly recommend purchasing this hard to find gem.

Great anime movie but it is very heartbreaking and would be hard to watch again. A must see for anime fans or anyone looking for a well done tragic story.

This movie is up there with the Saving Private Ryan and Apocalypse Now. Extremely powerful movie and deserves to be in everyone's library. Need to watch even if your not an anime fan.

One great movie. I am glad I saw it since I am a major collector and happy to add to my collection with great sound and picture.

This is a must watch classic anime film. It is a bit heavy and sad so if you don't enjoy that then stay away. If you can handle sad films then this is a must.

This story plays with a lot of different emotions. It’s cute but sad. It portrays life at that time I’m a realistic way, more than expected from an anime.

A very good movie, and amazing artwork, but this is not the movie your kids would enjoy like most of his other works. It is a very depressing story, and not one you will throw back in for a while, if ever, after the first viewing.

Perhaps the best animated movie of all time, if not one of the best movies period, and a beautiful steelbook edition.

One of the best Ghibli movies. Animation and the score are breathtaking. Be forewarned, some scenes are heartbreaking.

This movie was released in the late 1980s but i have to say it will make you cry. You will want to go hug someone after viewing it. Great movie

Hands down the saddest animated movie I've ever yes. And yes I've seen The Lion King and Bambi.

I've heard great things about this movie for years and finally decided to pick it up. The movie has a lot of heart to it and shows the fallout of war through the perspective of children and teens. Beware though that the movie will leave you sad at the end.

I am just getting into anime and I was really impressed at the emotional content of this film. Beautiful animation.

Came in good condition despite Best Buy’s lack of quality control and shipping standards

Made me cry but I am a softy. The graphics were great and the story was deep.

A great war movie showing war's effect on two young children trying to survive after the fire bombing of Kobe.
