Hotarubi no Mori e

Nov 13, 2018

This anime is really something special. It's not something bold and grabby to nab the mainstream attention. It's soft and beautiful, and a rather obscure title compared to many other " sad " animes out there. When I watched this I had been taking a break from the more violent, gorey stuff. It's something I will never forget. The serene, colorful animation was amazing. The simplicity of the story while still making it alluring was art. The quiet charm from the small couple of characters. The most notable thing about this anime is just the raw emotion it puts you through. A quiet, bittersweet melancholy, nostalgia, and sadness at the end. I loved it so much, I would rewatch in an instant. If you're looking for a short, simple, but amazing anime to sit down and watch, I reccomend this one.
