The story takes place in post war Japan and the characters are dealing with some pretty heavy baggage from the war when they find themselves having to confront what seems to be an unstoppable force of nature. Theres growth and friendship and characters not giving up their humanity when they they have every reason to. It was a nice reminder of just how enjoyable a movie like that can be to watch.
It was also cool to get see it in a theater in Japanese with English subs, that didn’t take away my enjoyment of the movie, and there are some nice references to the original films thrown in for enjoyment.
It’s definitely on my recommend list.
