The song is 「 生まれ来る子供たちのために 」 (Umarekuru kodomotachi no tameni) by 小田和正 (Kazumasa Oda).
Rough translation: For the sake of future children.
I love fat cat of this movie
You're a saint, thank you SO MUCH
kinda sad that this movie is so confusing for a lot people (even more so than night on the galactic railroad)
seemed doomed for obscurity from the start and the poor ratings is just adding more nails to the coffin
but it's really well put together in my opinion, and at least to me this actually seems like the most accessible of the trilogy for most viewers
though night on the galactic railroad is still the one that everyone should watch first before moving to spring and chaos and then this
i guess these movies seem like they never really were meant to dominate the market and make money anyways, these kenji miyazawa films seem more like a studio passion project dedicated to an amazing author and i'm 100% on board with that
Trilogy? Galactic train
This one
Which one else?
@@albertoandrade9807 Spring and Chaos
You can't fool me, that is Giovanni
OMG I FOUND IT!!! I watched this movie years ago and couldn’t remember it’s name. For some reason I really wanted to watch it. I’ve been looking for this movie for the past few months
Such a sad ending :(
It's the same giovanni of the movie night on the galactic railroad?
Written by the same individual, i dont think they were originally meant to be the same, but you can say that the creative minds who remade these stories into animations decided to unite the characters in the writers' dream universe... on the train, Giovanni is experiencing a sort of limbo time travel as he escorts his friend beyond their living dimension.. and he glimpses, perhaps, an alternate reality... if i am not mistaken, the lifestyles of both characters are very similar..
+wanderingintime Yes... Giovanni & Campanella, Budori & Neri... it's very autobiographic, because Kenji Miyazawa was in a similar situation when he lost his sister Toshi to tuberculosis. He tried to cope with her death in his works...
there is a strange scene in Galactic Railroad where Giovanni and the other children see a Giovanni look-alike- ( possible Budori) watched them, the writer of both stories believed in reincarnation so Its possible as a meta refference that Giovanni is a reincarnation of Budori
Same model different character
I was thinking the same thing.... :) Anime actors are back after so many years.
thank you =^.^=
0:46 He looks like the heron hunter from Ginga Tetsudou no Yoru.
I love that fat Cat What do you think?
I want to watch it XD
Someone please tell me where to find this! It looks amazing! I want to watch it so bad... T^T
Okamigirl2013 I know this is late, but this is on Blu-Ray now.
So, i watched this after reading all the comments about this thing not making sense.
SPOILlERS
Put this though the late Imperial Russia era (the one with Tsar) as a context. This exercise will add 10% more sense. Plot: Nature (?) fucks things up. Not once or twice. Everything is like that jolly time when your county had majority of its population on the death's door from starvation (What do you mean yours only have obesity epidemic?) . So Dad comes up with the idea to fuck off (not very original, but very effective solution used quite often). Mom is reluctant at first, then follows. Magic cat is sorta Grim Reaper. Sis is dead. Our kitten moves from the far outskirts closer to civilization. As he goes he accumulates "Literacy". Oh, and he never came to terms with himself about the whole "surviving" thing, so he is a bit nuts. You, as a viewer, should see where reality is and where our kitten's unhinged mind kicks in. The whole volcano bullshit - deus ex machina. Basically, a virgin burned himself on the job to make brighter future for all of the peoples, because he knew the hardships from personal experience. Believe it or not the story has a very slav motif.
love this comment, actually explains the film pretty well lol
Thanks I didn't realize the whole cat being a grim reaper thing, seems obvious now but yeah
I didnt get the end how did he blow up the volcano?
The whole volcano bullshit - deus ex machina. Basically, a virgin nerd burned himself on the job to make brighter future for all of the peoples, because he knew the hardships from personal experience. Believe it or not the story has a very slav motif.
if you saw night on the galactic railroad then keep on reading this
my theory is that Budori is some how connected to Giovanni and granted his wish of helpping others no matter the cost this iss shown how he talks with Campanella about happinies and tells him the story about a scorpion who burns to help others the scorpion symbolizes the mountain
I already saw the movie, but I did not understand the ending, if someone can explain it to me I would appreciate it very much
Is there a link for an english sub I wish netflix can dub this but I doubt that's a good idea since it will probably be ruined....
Ultra Instinct Goku well there's this app called anime watch classic. Download it. It has all the anime shows & movies. Really good
Just add ?id=25899 to the end of it to bring you to the page
can someone tell me, who sing that song, pls?
I´m searching for it since i´ve seen the movie ._.
生まれ来る子供たちのために from Off Course. It's not the original version, though
@@blubiddyblurp8498 Thank you for answering, even if my question is old and dusty xD
@@angelofdarkness108 Yours were fast ! I just came to add that this is Kazumasa Oda's version
weird...why did i get Kimetsu no Yaiba vibes from it
Same
waste of 2 hours if you ask me
**SPOILERS**
he never finds his sister or what happened to his mom and dad the story jumps around randomly and just leaves one confused]
his whole family is gone, period, the point of it is how he decide to do something the next time to save others
I say its pointless his whole family is gone yes but at one point he runs into them again meaning they're still out there somewhere wherever they are his whole point of running away from home was to find his sister he sees his mom and dad and then randomly decides to give up on it? That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever and then he randomly dies giant holes in the plot it makes no sense
Heh, what an idiot who does not understand symbolism, metaphor, and dares waste his time on something beyond his perception. Its cool you dont like it, but gtfo if you arent on the level, it wasnt meant for you.
I just watched it after about a year, and to be honest I didn't watch it so far mainly because of your comment.
But now that I watched it I realize you didn't actually understand it. His sister is dead. I was also confused up until the end because he kept going back and forth between a weird blue world with flying cats and weird looking guys, where he asks about his sister, and the "normal" world where he doesn't seem to care about her.
The last time he goes to the blue world, the "judge" cat says that he's guilty of coming here without permission, several times, and for some reason he keeps ending up here. That's an indication that it's another world. The judge also says Budori's sister came here out of her free will.
And at the end, when Budori meets the judge, it's when he thought that he'd sacrifice his life to safe people from the cold. Then the judge appears, saying he "called him", but Budori refutes actually calling him directly. So : at the beginning of the movie, his sister wished to sacrifice herself to save her brother and everyone from starvation. The judge came to grant her wish, taking her life as a price, as she secretly wished. She died. The blue world is the Afterlife, the "World of the Dead" (either that, or an "inner world" of Budori). Everyone is dead in there. He doesn't "meet" her again, he sees a poster of her in the other world, where everyone is dead. Like Giovanni in Night on the Galactic Railroad, for some reason he's the only living person to have access to the world of the dead.
That's it. His sister has been long dead, and he seems to have understood this in the real world (since he never once asks for her sister when he's in the "real" world), but whenever he goes to that other world he keeps asking everyone about her.
At the end of the movie, like his sister, he decides to sacrifice his life to save others, because he's been helped by so many people in his life. He will be a nobody who helped people in silence, just like in the poem that's repeated several times in the movie, and only us, the viewers, know his story.
Miyazawa Kenji seems to love making works about self-sacrifice...
Oh, for the parents we don't know anything though. But they're probably dead in the cold.
I gotta agree that up until the end when we realize that the two worlds are different and that his family has been long dead, it's kinda boring because it's SO confusing. What kept me going was the absolutely stunning animation (seriously, it's among the best background and special effects artwork I've ever seen in an animated movie). But when I'm at the end, I think it's worth it. Might rewatch it now that I understand what it's all about, so I can actually watch it without thinking "wait, what the hell is going on again...".
is neri gusukō alive or not ?!!!
I want non standard pattern :(
how do you mean?
wtf the ending... *didn't get sister back, instead got thrown into an erupting volcano by the same person who took his sister to save people from another cold front by inducing forced global warming using the volcano... da fuq bad ending!
no you see in another film called night on the galctic railroad they tell a story about how there was a scorpion who sacrifices himself by burning forever which helps everyone
Bad movie. don't watch it. I understand that they wanted to go for a
surreal route and that is not a problem in itself. For example the movie
"Night on the galatic railroad", which was done by the same crew (and
even with the same race of this movie) was much better done because at
least it was abit consistent.
This is the summary of the plot: cat
guy lives with his family, suddenly winter ccomes and never leaves and
everyone starves, the parents leave and never return home (the appear
again for a split second and NEVER was explained why they were there),
sister gets kidnappened by a magical cat. MC tries to find sister and
then stops trying to look for sister to settle down...twice. The galatic
train shows up for no reason other than a cameo. The magic cat shows up
and the MC doesn't even ask for his sister and then drags the MC to a
volcano to, what I assume at least since it was never told, to kill him
by throwing him on a volcano. which, SOMEHOW seems to fix the winter
problem. And once again, the movie has a lot of blank staring and a
several minutes of nothing (really, nothing at all. Just some charcater
blankly staring at soemthing)
2/10 movie and these only got these two points for the animation

bet you like marvel movies lmao... just because you don't understand something doesn't mean it's bad... it means you don't have the skill to understand it
@@lauratrejos1528 Not really. There is a fine line between being artsy and being a pretentious mess.
@@archeduardo and you think one of the most exalted works of literature, literally being cultural heritage of an entire country, is some "pretentious mess"??
It's easier to believe you're just an uncultured western dude rather than believing an entire nation greatly defined by their high performance in the fine arts creates a "pretentious mess" and holds it proudly as heritage of their nation...
It's not for you, great!! you can watch marvel, art is subjective after all...
But you can't dismiss such a masterpiece as "bad" because it's not for you...
get better opinions
@@lauratrejos1528 Amazing how you need to resort to direct insults to me in order to "prove" your point. Here's an advice for you, if a movie requires extensive research of outside material or have the author themselves to explain what happened in the movie, then the movie itself failed to convey whatever it wanted to.
Take night in the galatic railroad, for example, which was done by the same people (and have the same main charcater, so to speak). Night in the galatic railroad has many metaphors and interesting visuals, but guess what? It works, because things are clear by the end as to why things happened the way they did.
However, Life of Guskou Budori requires some very generous lenience from the audience to have its premise not fall appart.
This trailer is the most misleading thing, lmao. This is the most all over the place, nonsensical mess I've ever... actually, it's kind of worth it to laugh at how bad it is.
imagine thinking the movie adaptation of one of japan's most upheld pieces of art is worth laughing at... I think your little mind is worth laughing at, not the other way around and an entire country would agree
Seriously, the most disappointing movie I've ever seen.
