You just dont expect it to be so suddenly. Some way some how you know these two will leave each other. The thing about this anime is you know its not going to work out in the end. Īhh this piece… Thank you so much Makoto Yoshimori for writing beautiful music. This peice is like watching the entire movie but shortened to three minutes of cry your heart out piano and violin. The music: The music always puts you in the feels but none like KanaKana Shigure composed and played by Makoto Yoshimori.
In the begining hotaru is lost and afraid of the forest but as her and gin spend time together there she realizes that the forest is full of beautiful things her favorite being gin Seeing how Hotaru and Gin Affect each other: Gin starts off mysterious never even taking off his mask but as their relationship develops gin becomes more open he becomes happy. The evolution of hotaru: I loved watching Hotaru grow up watching as her feeling turn from childish wonder to a more mature romantic feeling. The innocence : That sounds dumb i know but really through out the movie all i can think about is both of their intentions all both of them want is to be around each to hug to hold hands. Literally every time i watch i find myself sobbing.face literally pressed to the screen rewinding it and watching it all over again just so i can fangirl and cry some more. How can love between a human and a spirit survive? Gin takes off his mask after Hotaru ask him to show his face more
But they begin to have more serious feeling for each other. The two spend every summer from that one on together and become best friends. He leads her out of the forest after telling her she can not touch him because he’ll disappear. So Hotarubi No Mori E ( Into the forest of fireflies light) is about a little girl named Hotaru on her way to her uncles house she gets lost in the woods and becomes tired from searching for a way out.Just when she thinks all hope is lost he appears a man in a mask. In fact this might help not shatter your heart so much like this movie did the first time i watched it. the little things like a butterfly fluttering off Gin's mask sub-consciously make you appreciative of its beauty even with its simple art form.To be honest this is a movie you can watch even if you know the ending The movie is so good it wouldn’t ruin it. these again tailormade for this film and gave the feeling of Light,Air and Warmth All the while with all these aspects in play moving at a leisurely pace despite the tight timeframe and mastering the art conveying emotion without the use of words.A pensive stare,A smile. the seiyuus(Voice actors) are really good ,the music giving soft and sweeping piano ,Accordions and xylophones and Fluttering violins(my Fave) some of best composed music I've heard in anime. The sound in this film is also another aspect of the cohesive force that makes this film truly a piece of art. Xter designs are minimalist and simple,backgrounds are full of soft and muted colors that give the feel of watching a moving watercolour painting which fits the story perfectly. But with Gin and Hotaru its refreshing to just watch them and not rack your brain trying to figure out what the other is thinking because you can tell they're struggling inside to be near each other and easily see the slow building of their bond without any lengthy speeches or excessive drama.a simplicity instead permeates through every aspect of the film.
