Comments of Yunagi No Machi Sakura No Kuni

one of my all time favs.

Reread and hit hard

I love this author so much. Definitely worth several re-reads.

A bit confusing but i dont want to read the explanation but i think i slightly get it

A thought-provoking masterpiece that needs to be read! It's not a very long story, but, in these three chapters, the author conveyed all that there was to say, all that was truly important to say. It's a very sad story, but it's beautifully and sensibly written. She quietly conveyed a beautiful anti-war message. It was humane and touching! In the end, it leaves us with a hopeful feeling for the future that somehow helps to fill a bit that feeling of void and desolation left by the first chapter. I also liked the structure in which the story was told. The shifts between present and flashbacks were well-executed. And the art style was very fitting.
Adapted to two live-action movies:
mydramalist.com / 2893-yunagi-city-sakura-country (unfortunately I didn't find it to watch);
watchasian.sh / drama-detail / town-of-evening-calm-country-of-cherry-blossoms

Set after the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Exploring the aftermath in a beautiful way.

Three segments of various people whose lives are connected in the years after the A-bomb falls on Hiroshima. Dealing with the illnesses due to radiation, prejudice, guilt of the survivor, and the enduring, quiet love of family members and friends. Beautifully drawn and sensitively told.

The lasting effects of the bombing of Hiroshima.
