during the final months of World War II. Universally acclaimed, Grave of the Fireflies has been ranked as one of the greatest war films of all time and is recognized as a major work of Japanese animation. [4][5] Plot[edit] In March 1945, American Boeing B-29 Superfortress bombers destroy most of Kobe during the close of World War II. Military children of an Imperial Japanese
Navy captain, Seita and Setsuko, survive, but their mother is severely injured and later dies. Seita conceals their mother's death from Setsuko to keep her happy. The siblings move in with a distant aunt, and Seita retrieves supplies he buried before the bombing and gives everything to his aunt, save for a tin of Sakuma drops. As rations shrink, the aunt convinces Seita to sell his mother's silk kimonos for rice. Seita also uses some of his mother's money in the bank to buy supplies. Their aunt, brainwashed by the Imperial cause and only concerned for her wellbeing, keeps most of the supplies for herself, her daughter, and her male lodger while becoming verbally abusive towards Seita and Setsuko, accusing them of leeching off her. After she forces them to provide for themselves, Seita and Setsuko leave by July and move into an abandoned bomb shelter.
