About Grave of the Fireflies
Overview
Its drama and coming-of-age classifications deserve attention before a casual animation-night choice. The format tells you how the work is made; the genre signals a different viewing decision. Use this as an Isao Takahata discovery route without assuming it has the same mood as his other films. The structured source identifies this as a film with a release year of 1988 and a listed runtime of 93 minutes. Credited creators in the imported record: Isao Takahata.
