Hello everyone!

SUBJECT: AREA 88

Has anyone seen this Anime film? It contains 3 episodes, was a Manga as well (first). My daughter liked the first two episodes. The third episode ended "awful". It was very wrenching. The music was amazing.

Any comments?

I had an interest in it, since it was my understanding that it was the story behind the later game "UN Squadron," which I also enjoyed. But I have never seen it. I understand it's quite violent, though.

Fighter planes ARE the violence. Likely the video game is more violent, in my opinion (but I don't really know). This is a psychological drama, very riveting and the last episode crashes!!!! It needs to be re-written. REALLY!

A deeper meaning is there. Trying and trying and compromising until the sorrow is so very deep. The end is crazy though, incomprehensible. Odd thing is this film touched my daughter so deeply -- her life was changed as a result.

God uses anything to speak to our hearts. Anime too.
