just when I thought I finally find a bad (boring) Ghiblie movie....the ending credits roll and it's just pure magic from there. It really made me want to rewatch the whole movie. I should have known better. From the Taeko flying sequence that brought nothing but huge smile and warm tears, this is another winner from Ghibli.
Detailed & lively animation as usual, great storytelling and characters , fitting soundtrack and most of all, the best flashback merging not just in any anime, but any movie. The flashbacks are so powerful that Taeko's somehow spoiled childhood literary brought my own childhood. SPOILER: the use of flashback of the kids character in the end is just magical, uplifting, genuine, ...I'm out of word.
Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Grave of Fireflies, Porco Rosso, Only Yesterday, Whisper of Heart,.... my heart journey continues
