To those who don’t understand what war is, To those who haven’t lost someone precious, To those who think they are safe, To those wondering what’s ahead, To those taking it lightly, To those who don’t grasp what war truly is— I won’t say much. Judge things as you will.
If you know, you know about the countries suffering in pain now. You can see their plight, And put yourself in their place to understand: War has no gains.
Grave of the Fireflies, a movie, a testament, An anime to make you weep, to make you wise. You might think, why am I saying this? Is telling you to watch a movie mere foolishness?
If you don’t know what war is, If you don’t understand suffering, If you can’t grasp the pain of those burning in this fight, Then go and witness the reality of those caught in war now— Babies, women, old, young, men, and women—everyone is dying.
And if you lack the courage to face real footage, Even an anime’s depiction will shake you. But if you dare to see the real-life suffering across the world, Tears will roll down your cheeks. And then, perhaps, you’ll never wish for war again
