[@daly5297]

Many complain about the lack of romance in this movie , but honestly the story it conveys is much more than that . There’s something about this movie that held my entire attention and I even kept going back to repeat some scenes that I liked . I’m not saying it’s the best but for me it’s one of the few movies that I sure will remember for the rest of my life . It definetely stands out story-wise and art style wise . Spoiler : The saddest part of the movie imo is when Maquia was recalling Ariel’s whole life , from the minute she found him and then through puberty( he called her attention by “ne” instead of calling her mom ) and finally until she and him parted ways for the last time . I mean that scene , as much as it was predictable, was done brilliantly and it’s definitely my fave scene .

[@Alice-rt6fz]

Yeah it just was never meant to be a movie about romantic love. I think people who complain about Maquia not having a love interest should realize that not all movies will involve one...

[@sushigo.]

this is more than romance its a story beyond romance thats why everyone enjoyed it (my opinion)

[@Piegoose]

It's familiarizing with the concept of unconditional love aswellas a reminder of our mortality and appreciation of what we experience in life. Masterpiece.

[@tox3200]

daly5297 it’s also about the mother’s out there. It’s like no matter who she is even tho she isn’t your real mom you should still consider her one. Though the message of the story isn’t really about that it still shows that how we should appreciate those people who raise us ‘cause no matter what happen they will be the one who will be in our side.

[@Crosshill]

i like how all the romance gets trumped by motherly love, no distractions, no sidetracks, just a big old motherly gut punch im here listening to the ost having just finished it, you need to let that kinda shit just sink in cleanly

[@cosmonautg1430]

24:18 "I'm sorry Ariel... Your mom's gonna break her promise." I swear on my fucking life, that I have not and I mean NOT cried THIS much throughout an anime movie which had so many emotions packed up together since I don't even know, Grave of Fireflies? I'm not a person who gets sentimental over anime to affect real life to the extreme, whatever this movie has done sure affected me and everyone who watched it. Whatever you are doing, even through all those puddles of tear, think thoroughly about the strong message this passed throughout its entirety and with no shame whatsoever go give your mother a big hug and tell her what she wants to hear.

[@Tohlemiach]

My parents house is on the way home to my apartment, and I had to go out to an appointment right after finishing this movie, and it made me decide to stop by just to tell my mom that I loved her. I cried 4 different times throughout this movie, and at that line about her breaking her promise, I just sat and stared at the screen for a good minute as tears just poured from my face. I didn't even make a sound the whole time. I have not cried at an anime since Clannad and that was like 8 years ago. This anime is an anomaly, and everyone should see it.

[@jamiahunt7269]

Maquia reminded me how much familial, especially maternal love, is so much more powerful and impactful than your typical romance. It's a shame there aren't more movies exploring motherhood.

[@cicizhou300]

This might be very late considering you commented this a year ago...... but have you perhaps watched ‘wolf children’? It’s also about motherly love. Also they boy and the beast’ is about fatherly love^^ They’re both great movies as well!

[@user-su4dd9kp7l]

The thing that I love about this movie is that it takes a pretty traditional fantasy world setting, but makes it real. Most fantasy anime read off like an RPG. The worldbuilding is cliche, the only job seems to be working as some sort of bounty hunter in a guild, and there is a general lightness to the mood that doesn't really do justice to the potential of the genre. In this movie, however, everything felt real. The characters had emotions and responded to the things happening to their world appropriately. They have depth. It allows you to really immerse yourself in this world and story that is completely foreign, yet still feel a connection to all of the characters because fundamentally, they are all still human.

[@xuefanli4469]

yes i agree. the whole idea of this movie was about the journey of motherhood, something a big portion of humans experience so it made it more relatable in a way. it made the characters more like us humans.

[@obshussion8401]

I completely agree with you

[@onlyaraku]

I agree wholeheartedly. I've seen so many isekai anime among others with such subpar differentiation in terms of worldbuilding that they could practically all come from the same world. I firmly believe that a thoughfully crafted world can offer so much to a story and really enable the reader to invest themselves in the characters and the obstacles they face. Some of the most popular and widely acclaimed anime have masterful worldbuilding and I'd argue that it is one of the main factors they owe their success to. Three series that immediately come to mind: Attack on Titan, Made in Abyss and Jobless Reincarnation.

[@katxd2596]

I started crying so hard after the fight was over, when Ariel opened his eyes and saw Maquia again, and the part where the conversation was about when they separated 10yrs ago. And of course, the last part, we were all there to witness their growth. It was absolutely heart wrenching but in a good way. Been a while since I've cried this hard since Violet Evergarden.

So, I just got to see this a few days ago, and yeah, I was a wreck after it over. Such a great movie, but that ending, it hit me so damn hard. Earlier this year, I lost my wife. I have not dealt with this well. I don't anyone does. But the theme of the film, how loving someone makes you lonely, it kind of hit me hard. What hit me harder though, was Maquia knowing that she was now lonely, but was so full of joy that she had been loved so much. Yeah. That's just what I needed to hear. Thank you, Okada-senpai. Thank you for reminding me how blessed I have been in my life. For I have been loved.

[@Moonless6491]

I can't compare to what you have lost. I had a girl leave me after I dated her for 7 years, and I knew her for more than that. I was about to propose, but I found out some things she did that mad it clear it was time to end. I lost most friends in the process because we both knew the same people. The feeling of absolute loneliness is the worst thing in the world. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I have found an odd friend in anime. It's story telling medium is something that can't be duplicated. Many different shows have made me think an realize that many other people are just as lonely and damaged as the rest of us. I have found a certain joy in suffering though. It has made me aware of many things I never thought of before, and I feel I understand the human condition maybe a little bit better. All I can do is be kind to people, and maybe one day I'll find someone else. I wanted to see this movie in theaters, but I missed the show date, so I'm gonna watch it at home. It must be good with a soundtrack like this. I hope things work out for you.

[@CainLatrani]

@@Moonless6491 I'd like to say it's getting easier, but it really isn't. Still, little by little, I'm doing okay. I couldn't agree more with your words on anime. Movies such as this, and shows like Violet Evergarden, and Ano Hanna have helped me deal with the grief so much. All that's left after that is, as you so wisely said, is to try and be kind to others, and keep moving forward, finding joy where I can. Thank you for your kindness.

[@raijoukonishi9868]

On the day Maquia released in theaters, my brother asked if I wanted to go see it alongside him. I agreed, though it was just because I was young and into anything remotely relating to anime. On that day, it was all such a blur, but I vividly remember thinking that it was now my favorite movie of all time. I did not remember my reason for making such a bold statement as time went on, the movie entering the deepest crevices of my memory. What I did remember was that despite not understanding the deeper meanings of the movie, it was the most beautiful thing that I had ever watched in my life. Now, almost four years later, I have rewatched the movie and it has made tears stream out of me for the first time in months. This movie is such a wonderful work of art; the direction, the characters, the plot, the visuals, the love between a parent and a son… It’s all so beautiful. For nearly four years, Maquia has stood as my most favorite film to ever exist to date, and I don’t think a single film in the future could ever take its spot. After all, a mother’s love will always be eternal.

This anime ended in a good way but it still makes me moved and burnt out into tears... Maquia always tried to be a good mom but she's actually, already, a true mom. Though Ariel ran away from his feeling for her, it also meant that he left her alone, she still forgave him, and loved him as always. Thanks god that they met again when Ariel had his own precious family, when his feelings grew to be a great regret, so that he could say sorry to her and faced her as the way he was her child. At last, he was her child, again, and Maquia was happy with that though she couldn't be with him...

When I was watching the part where Ariel was fighting and Dita struggling to give birth to her baby, I suddenly had a terrifying premonition which I'm glad never came true in the movie. Suppose Ariel did die from that attack (there was good chance he would). And Dita, after giving birth to her child, would die too due to lack of assistance and treatment, say Maquia was too late. And then when Maquia would reach her, she would see a dead Dita clasping her child in her dead-cold fingers. Maquia would bend down to see whether the child was alive, and the child would catch Maquia's fingers..... Just like that moment she had discovered Ariel... She would once again pick up Ariel's child in her arms... And maybe she'd find that old Lorphian guy too, smiling in agony, Smiling at the endless cycle of pain and suffering the Lorphians had to bear If they ever loved a human. And the cycle would take them back to square one, And like a refrain make them go through the times Of peace, happiness, anger, sorrow, anxiety, Just to end in despair, and begin once again. This could be an alternate ending for Maquia's life, but then it would have been a bit too traumatic, right?

@@loremipsum980 Quite a critical take of you. Like with all superpowers immortality has its pros and cons. Seeing as you've just about covered all of its drawbacks, I think I should cover its merits. Immortality would enable someone to observe and interact with their descendants. I think that's a beautiful thing, personally, even if it may be painful at times. And beyond that, it would give someone an opportunity to share their memories and knowledge accumulated from centuries of life. It would give one's descendants a window into their family from long ago.

[@gracelessdaisy5880]

Watched this for the second time and I didn't expect to cry harder than the first time. This movie left me breathless. It has the kind of serenity I am eternally seeking for. Above all, this made me realize of how deep, immeasurable, and strong a mother's love is. You'll definitely miss half of your life if you miss out this movie! 😭😭😭

[@kevinxiong5385]

I've been listening to this video for years but I just finished watching the movie last night. Cried tears when Ariel said, "Don't go, Mom", when Ariel said "Welcome home" as he was laying in his bed as an old man, and when Maquia started crying at the end, especially during the flashback of her remembering how Ariel grew up along with her. Cried more after the credit scenes as well as after the movie was done. I loved how the whole movie focused on motherhood/parenthood, unconditional love, and Maquia's and Ariel's growth as human beings (despite Maquia not really being human in a sense). To add, I personally think the whole moral of the movie is that it is better to love someone unconditionally, whether it be romantic or not, and be hurt from said love than to never love at all regardless if you can live for a long time or not. Losing someone you love is scary but I think not loving anyone or anyone not loving you is even more terrifying in it's own way. A life without love seems kind of pointless and dull to me.

[@shir0sl]

Maquia made me cry harder than 'I want to eat your pancreas', 'silent voice', 'your name' and 'weathering with you' Like it got me depressed after watching it bro...

[@jennanuntavijan]

This movie!!!!!!! I love this movie and the reason I love it is because it showcased the unconditional love, a love that will always return with nothing but love even through thick and thin. [spoiler]When Ariel left her, I was sad of his action for doing so but I thought about my own relationship with my mom and there was time I want to go too... it’s not because I don’t love her but I was old enough to make my own decisions and then there was time I said that I don’t regret anything but it came back to me that the child in me will always be there and I will always love and miss my mom. But this movie shows the part she came back to him, help his wife give birth, also help the wounded him. It was the most beautiful selfless love that stirred the past memories of him and her that his mom will always be his mom. The relationship with his wife show that through the love he got from his mother, he was going to be the gentle soul that going to love another person the way his mother taught him to love. The last scene where she flew on renata was also beautiful. It show that she was ready to accept that he have his own life and that he was going to live to the fullest because she wish him nothing but love. Truly a magical movie to showcase the unconditional love ❤️ I will always remember this movie

[@jackofspades2957]

I honestly regret not watching this earlier. It's truly a masterpiece. I'm usually one who is very picky about soundtracks and I have never cried watching anime. I've watched many Studio Ghibli films, Violet Evergarden, a Silent Voice, I Want to Eat Your Pancreas, and many other sad anime, but none were able to make me even shed a tear (though some were close). However, this movie had me crying multiple times, and by the end, I was just sobbing. It's truly beautiful.

[@cwenlee9426]

Had a good cry, my mom and I sort of estranged. What hit me so hard is I remember my mom love me and care for me deeply when I was a kid. I had a good childhood. Things started to change when I'm 15, my mom just snapped (due to domestic abuse by my father). On her hospital bed (due to injuries from the abuse), my mom yelled at me to get lost. She hates me since, and I have also suffered physical and mental abuse from there onwards. I have no choice, I have to get married at a young age to leave the house. This movie reminds me that people that used to love you can become an utter stranger.

I silently cried to this since I was watching it at night with my parents right beside me. The urge to hug them was strong when I finished it but they were already asleep. My eyes were all puffy the next morning and I told them that I cried to a movie I watched. I basically told them everything about this movie nonstop rambling on and on. I would want to watch it with them but I can't bear to watch this movie a second time, it just hurts too much.

This movie impacted me the way I never expected it to. I would've beaten myself up for not watching this film earlier. The first time I watched this is back in August 2019. And it hurts me a lot because it perfectly showed the beauty of maternal love, of mother and son. It hurts, because I knew then that I never had the chance to show this to my mom, who sadly passed away 4 months prior. It's really beautiful and I'm sure she would've loved it too. :)

[@alaeaaa]

I first saw this movie during one of my anime club meetings. We literally extended our session time and didnt leave until we finished the entire movie. By the end I was pretty much crying on the inside and I tried so hard to control my tears because there were people in the room. I first thought that this movie was gonna have a lot of romance because of how the first few minutes turned out but it was really just about the bond between parents and their children. Visuals and animations were great and the soundtracks were amazing. Wished this movie got more recognition that it definitely deserves.
