Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind

When I was very young,  Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind was the first animation movie I saw. I remember my mother's friend gave me the whole bunch of Ghibli animation CD and I watch them as I am a kid. It would be a lie if I say I understand the whole films. Actually, I did not understand most of the film's story at that time. Nausicca was cool, but Ohmu was really, really scary for I was a child.

Maybe it's because the drawings are not pictures, so they don't seem really grotesque, or maybe because I can't imagine the scene at all. It was 1945 when atomic bomb was dropped into Japan and it is really not an ancient time. It is more likely to a recent event according to the whole Japan history and that means, the character's life inside the comics are not dramatically different from our old days. This is a very shocking fact. Because we do listen to our elders, grandparents, and parents about their childhood. And it is the exact time when our grandparents live. So we could simply imagine how would their life was. And then the bomb hit the place. People body have burned alive, skin is mel...
