The subplot was never important in the manga anyway.

You gotta mention Barefoot Gen when Grave of the Fireflies is on the list. Like GotF, Barefoot Gen focuses on a child's experience of the Hiroshima bombing and its aftermath.

Below is an early scene from the film which shows the destruction of the atomic bomb. It's extremely disturbing! Watch at your own risk.

I've seen the film and it's amazing. Cried so hard T_T
Btw, I did see the ending plot twist coming (the one about who Marnie actually was).

Judging from the English trailer. The dub sounds quite good (like most Ghibli english dubs).

If you're looking for a lesbian love story, you're will be very disappointed.

and i just saw the extended 6-min trailer (only in cinemas).
I really gotta watch the original trilogy ASAP

He already did it more than a month ago.

That’s very common in Asia.
Other examples:

The S.H.Figuarts line usually release Tokusatsu action figures which I owned some of them. It's high quality and detailed. Great for those who couldn't afford toy lines like Hot Toys.

It also depends on regions. I've played online games in many different servers and the South East Asia region (where I'm from) has the worst community ever, including the admins themselves (they would ban people on forums without a legit reason)! Almost all the matches has toxic players, even my friends are one of…

Pretty much every MOBA game I've ever played.

Can't wait for the world depicted Dennou Coil (2007) to become a reality!

That's the thing about using practical effects than CGI titans. It will be the same for the 2-part film.

Did you know that the titans in the commercial are done using practical effects? Puppetry and hours of make up. CGI was only used in effects like smoke and debris. It acted as a preview of how the movie would look like. Both cm and the 2-part movie are directed by Shinji Higuchi (Heisei era Gamera trilogy, End of…

The director did note that only 50% of the film is historical accurate.

Hopefully you got the original 2-part film ver than the Hollywood compressed cut.

Shinji Higuchi directed Giant God Warrior over Tokyo and he's directing the AoT films. He was also the special effect director for the Heisei era Gamera films and a few Godzilla films which explains the use of practical effects in AoT. (Tokusatsu ftw?) Shinji Higuchi also did storyboards for Kill la Kill, Rebuild of…

It is coming... in 2016. They just had enough source material to make another season. For now, they're releasing the 2-part ova focusing on Levi's past.

It's impressive but I'm used to it since I always watch Chinese war films where they usually hire hundreds and sometimes thousands of extras to fill in the soldiers' role.

Too much work :S I usually just watch summarized versions of each origin story and certain events on Youtube.

Forgot to mentioned that I wasn't talking about the US. It's Malaysia, a south east asian country. I converted the currency for convenience sake.
