Here's to one of the saddest and darkest Studio Ghibli movies: The Grave of the Fireflies
(got this one meselfa on DVD):



"War does not only involve soldiers. During WWII, Seita and Setsuko flee from their homes one night when the air raid alarm sounds. With the fall of the fire bombs, they become orphans and homeless. This film, based the semi-autobiography by Akiyuki Nosaka, relates the tragedies of war as Seita and Setsuko struggle to survive with only each other to hold onto."
