Guys i have a very strong feeling that we'll all cry in the end

[snowey]

“I am so sorry Ariel, Mamma is gonna break her promise...”

[MOONLIGHT-deke]

Who else came back to the trailer after watching the movie to read the comments about it? xD

[zarifmoenraiyen]

Best quote of this movie-
"Elder. I am glad that I loved Ariel. I am glad I loved"

[JeeMeeVee]

I got teary eyed when Ariel called Maquia as his “Mom” once again, that’s so heartwarming and one of the best emotional scenes from the film.This movie is of one a kind, and truly a masterpiece.

[ifyouseemycommentanywherei]

Totally worth it. I watched this trailer after I watch the whole movie. This trailer didn't really tell you the main point. The trailer only show us like typical boy and girl love, but the movie actually tell us about motherhood. In a different way, angle and point of view. It's okay this is not a spoiler.

How Ariel calls Maquia :
- *When he's 6 years old*
*" Okaasan "*

- *When he hits puberty*
*" Hey "*

- *When Maquia left him*
*" !!!! "*

My face, throat and eyes hurt like hell after watching this movie lol. So beautiful. I can’t remember being this vulnerable, emotional and tearful throughout any movie before. Now my nose is fully stuffed.

[atheriix]

The ending gave me chills. This movie is truly wonderful.

[maronsinamban]

Another tragic story? Oh my. I cant wait to break my heart again

[junggoo]

For sure I'll be obsessed with the OST's of this anime😁

[katsukibakugo]

"Welcome... Back... "
~Ariel

[nadiaputribalqist]

So sad omg.. I watched the movie, In My opinion Maquia is more emotional than "Your name" And "Silent voice"

[MrMokona]

I saw the movie. If you didn't get a chance to see it, I would recommend you watch it. It is so beautifully written, and so beautiful to look at. Watch this movie, if you can. It's so...it's hard to put into words, but I felt something when I left the movie. It was worth it. If you get the chance. Watch it.

Spoiler warning ::::












Did anyone else just start crying their eyes out when she had the flash backs at the end

[Dorirayy]

The fact that she never seemed to age physically but mentally she’s grown to be a great mother… 😢

[mohammedalssamraey]

This sad story reminds me of myself. My mother died when I was 1 year old and I don't have any memory of her...

After my father was taking care of my all by himself
He married a woman who then she became my mother.

She is my Maquia she loved very much and raised me with love and care and never made me feel the loss of a mother

And when I reached 17 my father passed away and I wanted to escape everything and even leave mother alone but she was even sadder than me and never wanted me to leave

Even now I traveled far from her and miss her... ah how life can be beautiful when you are with a loving family

[HAUMEAW]

When I say “the tickle bugs are coming” you cry, okay?

Ok lets all cry in 1, 2, 3 *sobs*

[NOVA-eikj]

The music is beautiful, the art is beautiful, the voice actors are perfect, the characters are beautiful , showering soo many emotions just like we're gonna take shower in our tears in the end -
