The Tale of the Princess Kaguya / かぐや姫の物語 (2013)

i have cried every single time i have watched this film, and i think as i get older i'll find new moments and ways to do so!! it is impeccably made and incredibly tender. immense care was clearly put into capturing the minutiae of life, the weight of gestures, the movement of wind, etc. this all makes the emotional weight of thing that much more brutal!!
growing up is hard, watching someone grow up is hard, being alive is hard!! but its so beautiful. yet its so painful that is it always both. (ㅠ﹏ㅠ)･｡

i agree, i bawled my eyes out the first time i watched it. the song “when i remember this life” brings me to tears every time i hear it. the lyrics too https://open.spotify.com/track/3GZHGEnkhb06VDN2Ykgr9t?si=nFOQnnZvS6qkDU0ohALyCA

There’s a scene in this where the animation breaks with the emotion of the character and it takes my breath away every time.
