At least you're on the same page as the director, unlike most people.

It would be more sad if they didn't WANT us to be sad, it seems really forced a lot of the time, i.e anytime the sister cries, i.e, the whole fucking movie.

Being retarded is a sad thing.

maybe because you probably read that it's sad 100 times. It caught me by surprise when I first watched it. Internet ruined this movie. Telling everyone that this is a very sad movie is like telling babies in nurseries that Darth Vader is Luke's father.

i went in expecting typical ghibli fare, but what i got was a welcomed change in tone

I'm with you completely. It takes very little to get me to cry, but this movie flat out sucks. I never felt anything but disdain for the main characters.

>>67956465
ikr? the stupidity in this movie triggers me.

The Aunt was a faggot though. I wouldn't want to stay with her either. She sold their mother's kimonos and kept 99% of the proceeds, she told the sister that her mother was dead and complained when she cried in addition to her beung a bitch in general.

Worst Ghibli character by far. Seita is still a retard, but the Aunt's extreme shitness doesn't help the viewer not side with Seita in his refusal to go back to her.

Isn't it sad to have such a retarded brother?
