This work was broadcast on TV Asahi on August 15, 2007, and is positioned as an important media to ensure that the history of war does not fade away. In particular, it left a deep impression on viewers by depicting the horror of the Great Tokyo Air Raid and the history of the subsequent reconstruction. Story development and appealThe story begins when Ayaka Nakanishi, a modern-day elementary school student, travels back in time while walking her dog Ryan and arrives in Tokyo on March 7, 1945. Ayaka meets a girl named Tomoko and witnesses the harshness of war and the lives of the people. The walnut bell that Tomoko gave her becomes a symbol of hope, but the fateful night of March 10 arrives, the night of the Great Tokyo Air Raid. This story depicts the horror of war in a realistic way, while also depicting the strength of friendship, familial love, and the human spirit that never loses hope. The friendship between Ayaka and Tomoko, and the bond between Ryan and Hana, strike a strong chord with viewers. The story also incorporates the fantasy element of time travel, making historical events feel more familiar. Character AppealThe main character, Ayaka, is an ordinary elementary school student who faces the extraordinary situation of time slipping, and the story depicts her growing up. Her purity and strength resonate with viewers. Meanwhile, Tomoko plays an important role as a person who supports Ayaka, never losing hope even in the harshness of war. Her kindness and courage become a light that illuminates the dark shadows of war. In addition, each character, such as Shokichi and Tomoko's family, is affected by the war in their own way, but they also support each other. The portrayal of these characters plays an important role in helping readers understand the tragedy of war more deeply. Visual and musical evaluationThe visuals of this film are impressive for their beautiful drawings that make use of Shin-Ei Animation's technical capabilities, and for the scenes that realistically depict the horror of war. In particular, the scene of the Great Tokyo Air Raid, with its realistic depiction of the flames of incendiary bombs and the people fleeing, leaves a strong impression on the viewer. In addition, the daily lives of Ayaka and Tomoko, as well as modern-day scenes before the time slip, are also carefully depicted, supporting the development of the story. The music, by Masae Sagara, adds excitement to the story with its moving melodies. In particular, the theme song "Abandoned House in My Hometown" expresses the sadness and hope of war together with Reina Takahashi's singing voice. The sound effects and background music also effectively convey the tension of war and the warmth of friendship. Staff EvaluationGeneral Director Tetsuo Yasumi and Director Minetaro Hirai have faithfully reproduced the themes of the original work while creating a story that will touch the viewers. The script also incorporates the essence of the original work while skillfully incorporating the element of time travel. The technical skills of each staff member, including character design, animation director, art director, and cinematographer, have been highly praised.
