dovrei rivederlo ma ho un fortissimo ricordo del me piccino che guarda questo film e quei ricordi sono molto piacevoli.

J'adore mais c'est quoi le délire des japonais à considère la baleine comme un animal sacré et hyper spirituel dans tout leurs films et à être l'un des seules pays qui pratiquent encore la chasse ????

No es que me haya sacudido emocionalmente, pero es una película que cumple con las expectativas, una relación maestro alumno, la cual encuentro fascinante, y la típica moraleja de pelicula japonesa, de que no somos nadie sin las personas que nos rodean. En definitiva, una película muy disfrutable.
Ah, punto negativo a que haya demasiados furrys.
