A bearcat (binturong) or as I’m going to call them, a long panda, are a species of viverrid similar to no other animal I have ever heard of but they’re basically one of those species that evolved into mustelids without being mustelids. And can look like cars, possums on in this case a scruffy long panda.

grave of the fireflies (1988)

This masterpiece of a film was absolutely devastating to watch for the first time, and it was no less devastating watching it again. The animation is absolutely amazing, and I feel like it is the most realistic style that is seen from Studio Ghibli, especially because it is unusually not set in fantasy.

Grave of the Fireflies can be read as anti-war, but it seems to use the war as a backdrop. The film focuses on how innocent lives were affected by the war, especially as it focuses on two kids. Seita's pride seemed to be his downfall in the end, as he does not come back to his aunt. His aunt's abuses were not easy to bear, and her words held the bleakness of his and Setsuko's life. It seemed like he refused to see how much they were suffering, just like how Japan overlooked the suffering of thousands of its people. He lived off scraps and in the cave, barely sustaining himself and Setsuko and resorting to thievery to keep them afloat. It is this that solidified my understanding that Seita represents Imperial Japan. Giving up and turning back was NEVER an option to Seita, and despite the multiple opportunities he had to save himself and Setsuko, he never took them and it led to the unthinkable happening.

Visuals that I will never forget is the way the bombs that floated from the distant planes resembled the fireflies that were throughout the film. Fireflies are a big motif in the film, as the beauty of them is tragic because it is so short lived. It reminds us of Setsuko's death.

Moreover, the ending scenes of the movie are just brilliant. When we cut to a scene of teenage girls coming back home after Japan's surrender, and then we are shown how Setsuko bides her time alone without her brother, we see a life that would've awaited Setsuko had she lived. We watched Setsuko like the fireflies, admiring the beauty in her innocence and mourning how brief her life was. It's gut wrenching to watch her all alone. The very end seems to speak to the audience directly, as we view Seita and Setsuko in the afterlife and he lets her sleep, looking at the camera with an almost accusatory expression. His face seemed to say: "look what you've done."

As we get a shot of modern Japan in front of the siblings, we are reminded of how Japan viewed the senseless deaths of the war: a sacrifice for the reconstruction of their nation.

Wow, it's so delicious 😺😅

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."

It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
