Grave of the Fireflies is possibly one of the worst animes ive ever seen
this kid spends the whole movie trying to help his sister survive and then at the end she dies
lets just say its not one of the greats

If you watched this expecting your normal fluffy anime pap, then no wonder you didn't like it. It was a beautiful portrail of a side of war that often gets overlooked, an examination of a society that is breaking down under the stress of WWII, and a cathartic story told by a man still eaten away by guilt at the real death of his sister during that time.
There is a reason that the movie has been compared to such powerhouse films as Schindler's List and has routinely been given glowing reviews by critics. It is the most emotionally charged and powerful anime I've ever seen.
