A Silent Voice: The Movie 2016

I pushed back watching this for a while now. I did not want to go through what I went through when I watched Clannad. Yet here I am... feeling so down after watching this amazing piece of art. It makes me wonder what kind of life I'm living, and why I feel so empty after watching Anime such as this one.

Friendship is an amazing thing, but not everyone gets to experience it... Anxiety, depression, social awkwardness, etc. This Anime really puts that into perspective, among many other things.

My final thoughts: If you have not watched this yet, or you are trying to decide whether you should, please know that this Anime is an emotional roller coaster, and you will likely cry or feel very depressed after watching this. I pushed back watching this because I did not want to cry, but I watched it tonight and have no regrets. Watch this masterpiece when you are ready, and don't force yourself into it. I'm glad I waited.

@mrbowzer Right there w ya and couldn’t have said it better... Wait till you watch “your name” it blew me away completely. A masterpiece of animation art and story writing. Totally a roller coaster ride from the beginning to the end....

@vanillabearib I'm worried I am going to end up a full shut-in NEET if I watch anymore sad anime, honestly.
