So I never got deep into anime but I’ve been slowly working through my backlog of mostly Studio Ghibli movies and this morning Grave of the Fireflies jumped out as sounding interesting.

I was surprised to see it looks like there are THREE different English dubs and was wondering which is everyone’s favorite or if there is a fan consensus on which is “the best” version.

I assume the original Japanese with subtitles is the best way to watch it and I will probably rewatch it that way myself, I’ll be watching with someone who English is a second language and just can’t keep up with subtitles.

    Warning: Around minute 20 I began crying and didn’t stop until the movie ended. I hadn’t cried for years before that, so beware you’re prepared for that.

      This is why I have it saved to my watchlist but keep putting it off lol. I have to be in the right mood for that kind of ugly crying.
