Shouwa Monogatari (Movie)
(Anime)
add
Such a great yet simple slice-of-life movie! The character development of the Yamazaki family is the best part. From the daughter's struggles with first love to the simple experiences of boyhood through the son's perspective, Shouwa Monogatari emphasizes the bond between a loving but dysfunctional family. Surprisingly, the father gets decent screen time and proper character development (which is not often in anime movies). I loved watching this movie! Watched this movie when the 2020 Tokyo Olympics had to be postponed to 2021 caused COVID-19 and this movie made me appreciate the Olympic Games more and the hardworking people of Japan.
