Thank you! Much love

[@MomentsofMuse]

Shame to see people skipping over a video on this movie. Way too much credit to you for covering it.

[@rexsalisbury3646]

I have seen this Anime several times and have read the Manga which hit me more in the feels then any Manga I have read.. I loved how the Anime almost stayed true to the Manga with little being left out in the development of the characters and storyline.. What would make this better would be a short After Story, covering what happens after the festival finishes and maybe a look into the future..

[@michigansanjuan380]

When Shouya's mum found out he was trying to commit suicide I balled my eyes as it opened my eyes to how it affects others.

[@DustinHern]

yeah that scene in particular is really hard for me to watch for... uhh... personal reasons

[@tdfern1]

People who think suicide is the only way out and think that it will make life easier for them and better off without, but in reality it is total opposite you realize.

[@Gemnist98]

Unfortunately I learned a far harder way. I had suicidal tendencies all throughout high school and my freshman year of college, but at the end of the latter my best friend ended up going through with it. It sounds kinda bad, but going through the whole grieving process helped me to cope with it and see how it affects others. I’ve not made an attempt since. I also really like the scene with his mom because it’s portrayed very authentically. She doesn’t try to give a therapy session, she loses her cool and blames herself. Which is what a normal person would do because they don’t comprehend what goes on in the head of one in such a dark place.

[@sarahmendez9889]

I can’t really blame him.

[@Gemnist98]

@@tdfern1 It really depends. Some people feel that way, but others are just so depressed that they take the blame all on themselves. In fact, as Shoya demonstrates, some people even go out of their way as to cut all their ties with various groups (e.g. cleaning out their locker, closing their bank accounts, cleaning up their room, etc.) because they believe it will be a hassle for those they leave behind to have to do it for them when they pass.

[@dark_crimson4783]

I didnt cry while watching the movie but yeah i definately cried when i went through the reviews as i watched the movie when i was a bit young but now as im matured i realized the depth and beautiful potrayal of the movie

[@emopeterparker7]

i've been avoiding this video because a silent voice really cut through me when i first watched it, bc i was in probably one of my lowest points and it cut deep y'know. and this video really explained why. also the scene where the Xs finally drop and shouya accepts life, as you put it, really hit me hard. it made me bawl my eyes out as someone who's been blocking out life as well, albeit our circumstances are very different. idk what the point of my comment is. i guess it's to express how much a silent voice really means to me. it's probably my favorite movie (aside from spiderverse) and i love it more than kimi no nawa, but that's only because of personal reasons. i think both films are amazing and can't really be compared, even objectively BECAUSE their essence is exploring human aspects of, well, people.

[@BooksToAshes]

I've been avoiding watching anything to do with the movie since I watched it a few weeks ago for similar reasons. I've experienced everything that these characters go though (bullying, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts) and just seeing that ending with the X's falling made me cry again. I'm glad beautiful movies like this exist, and hope everyone can grow and become happier in life and realize it's worth living.

[@brwntwn123]

Ngl this is the only movie I've ever cried to while watching. MULTIPLE TIMES

[@Emanuel-ht9yl]

this was really well put, helped me gain some perspective aswell

[@suplays]

Man everytime shoko said I'm sorry, something broke in me

[@TheZexal]

The most relatable anime for me has to be Koe no Katachi. It is my favourite film, period. It feels more personal to me than anything I've ever experienced before, to the point where it felt like a documentation of my own life in a way. I have experienced the some vaguely similar events in my life, such as making mistakes at one point in my life and suddenly being treated as a bully by people who never had an issue with the matter before; having friends all suddenly turn their backs on me and distance themselves from me; coming to hating myself and not being able to forgive myself because of this event; planning to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge but then ultimately not doing so. Though I still struggle with a lot of these mental issues to this day, the film felt like the only thing in existence that truly understands how I feel, even more so than my friends. It's beautiful in its execution and objectively a masterpiece of a film, but what mattered the most to me was what it meant to me. Naoko Yamada captured not just the events of this story well, but especially the emotions it brought along in such an authentic way. These emotions correlated so strongly with how I once felt that I was able to enter back into the times when I felt these same feelings once again. This anime feels less so like just another piece of media I had consumed, and more so like a piece of me put to screen by people I had never even met. I resonated very strongly with the message of self forgiveness and it has helped me a lot in dealing with my mental health. Five watches later and I love the film even more every time. I definitely recommend everyone to go watch it, because it is a truly one of a kind experience

[@cbot9302]

The reason I liked this show much was because somewhere along the line I started absolutely loving shows that would portray realistic interactions between characters. This show litterly had me euphoric at times due to how real and plausible each and every situation was. The bullying was realistic, the speech of the MC and the shyness he had was realistic, the straining and exaggeration of his actions when around the main girl were realistic. God I need to rematch this.

[@loaf3897]

[@animewhisperer1830]

also i must add, in the manga, shoya was abused as a kid, just figured id put that out there lol, thats the only thing I wish they had conveyed a little better in the movie, if they did at all, I also think shoko was too, that was more obvious in the manga, and in the movie as well, but still super subtle

I wanted to show this movie to my mom so I can tell her about how much I love this movie and I did just that, we watched it together and after the movie ended, I asked for my mom's opinions about the movie and what she thinks of it, she gave a pretty basic review and thought the story and characters were okay but she tackled particularly towards the ending in which she said that the ending was absolutely perfect because it gave her hope in life, no matter the darkest times we've been through, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel (which was the metaphor of the film) I thought it was nice how my mom loved the ending and thought I should share it with you.

[@yeetyeet1655]

This film is the ONLY accurate portrayal of bullying I’ve seen in the media. The ONLY one. It’s such a beautiful film that I found while in Shouya’s position. You aren’t defined by your past. You’re deserving of love and friendship! I love this film and this analysis!

in general, american films/mainstream hollywood shit,,, don't portray bullying properly. esp american tv shows like ughhhhh. bullying is not "that person is bad this person is good." everyone is struggling, and even the people who arent the active bullies are wrong in their own ways. friendship isn't just drama and romance, it's learning to understand others while overcoming you fear of others by changing yourself. silent voice 11/10, i watch it every year. positive vibes and gives me hope to recharge for the new year, 2021 :)

[@shaggyscafe8805]

As someone who was the bully to kids who were autistic, I could relate to this movie so much. Now the funny part is I am losing my hearing, which I would joke kids about the same thing. Now I never tried to commit sucide, but I did go through a time in my life of hating myself. Now the funny part is the person who helps me with many things in life is deaf, but the difference is from me and shoyo is that I was his soldier basically. I would do anything anyone asked without asking why, I would constantly hurt myself over doing simple things wrong as speaking when not to be asked to speak. Now anytime I watch this movie it’s something I can actually relate to, which I hate I relate to this but I’m glad I relate to it. I’m still fixing the things I said and did to some of these people, but this was one of those movies that pushed me forward to do even better things to help those I bullied

[@tomsawyerpiper9412]

A Silent Voice reminds me of a quote from Robin Williams. ‘I used to think that being lonely was the worst feeling in the world. It’s not. The worst feeling in the world, is being surrounded by people who love you, and still feeling alone.’

I actually like the symbolism of the Xs over the faces simply because it gives a visual queue of social anxiety. Also, A Silent Voice is a masterpiece and deserves the recognition of 100%.

Just like Your Name changed your life, A Silent Voice changed mine. As someone who has repeatedly sacrificed themselves for the sake of friends, I blame myself a lot for their condition and if they aren't doing well emotionally, I often feel like it's my fault. I'm working through my issues and A Silent Voice has done a lot to spur that on. Shoya's persistency towards making Shoko happy over the summer as well as Yuzuru's attempt to make Shoko value her life more through her photography reminded me a lot of myself. I had several close friends, including an ex, attempt suicide my freshman year of high school. One of whom I had fought with very recently before the attempt, which hospitalized her. I blamed myself, and still do. So I now put a lot of myself into desperately supporting my friends like Shoya does out of fear of them actually succeeding and leaving my life forever, but it's at the cost of my own mental health. I think I also need to learn how to live without valuing other people's lives over my own. I hope I can also overcome my anxieties in the future and heal.

[@Triumvirate3]

I understand that you love these people and don’t wish to be responsible for their demise, but it’s ultimately their decision. You can only do so much, the rest is up to them. They are also responsible for themselves and owe it to those who care about them to live on. Suicide is ultimately a selfish act, especially when you have people around you, practically begging you to acknowledge your own value. If someone fails at life even after that, you cant blame yourself. Just discipline yourself to be as balanced as possible.

Mostly because they've started to let people who know nothing about animation vote in the animation category, and those people mostly vote for the one film they were able to drag their kids to. Some of the people that are allowed to vote haven't seen ANY of the nominated films. Also because the Academy is a giant joke and the Oscars are a marketing charade.

When I first saw it, I cried like 4-5 times for different parts. Mostly when I thought he died and when he finally looked up happily and the X-crosses fell off everyone’s faces cause I could relate to that.

[@dontask9000]

I can relate to Shoyas social anxiety. Constantly feeling like your doing something wrong or always afraid that you’ll be judged with everything you do. I feel that Shoya began to feel this way cause he felt like a horrible person, and that he was afraid to be judged for what he did. His guilt and embarrassment might’ve been the result of his social isolation.

[@misseli1]

*Spoilers for the film below:* One thing I truly appreciated about this movie is that it didn't try to justify Shouya's actions as a child. It doesn't put the blame on a bad home life, it doesn't take the insidious route of saying he bullies her because he likes her (I'm not entirely sure when he started developing feelings for Shouko, but either way the film doesn't try to romanticize the bullying). It just shows his actions as truly harmful, and not just to Shouko but to himself as well. Although you sympathize with Shouko from the very start because she is the victim in all this, eventually you can't help but sympathize with Shouya as well. Specifically because you see he feels immense remorse for what he's done, and because he so desperately wants to make ammends. Shouya shows that he truly regrets what he did to her, and we see him start to realize just how horrible his actions were when he learns how expensive her hearing aids were. When he sees his mother withdraw all that money from the bank to pay Shouko's mother. When he sees his mom bleeding from where Shouko's mother ripped off her earing, presumably as revenge for Shouya ripping out her daughter's hearing aids and making her bleed. When he's being bullied for trying to throw his classmates under the bus when they refused to admit they also took part in bullying Shouko. When he learns that Shouko was trying to protect him by cleaning his desk. When he freezes up after learning that she transfered schools. He also goes out of his way to learn sign language, to communicate with her. He goes out of his way to reunite her with her old friend Sahara. He tells Yuzuru he wants Shouko to love herself. He saves her life on the night of her attempted suicide, and he decides he wants to give her a reason to live, and that he too wants to keep on living. And if Shouko decides to forgive him and let him back into her life, if she decides to be his friend, who are we to say he doesn't deserve forgiveness? I also appreciated that the one who is aware of their own romantic feelings is Shouko. She's the one who tries to confess her feelings. Shouya mishears her confession, and I don't think it was solely because her speaking voice was unclear, but because Shouya just can't even begin to consider that she would be in love with him after everything that he did in the past. He's amazed that she forgave him and even more amazed that she would let him be her friend. I don't think romance was even on his mind for much of the film. Had the film tried to justify or romanticize his past with bullying, or had Shouya and Shouko ended up together as a couple by the end of the film, I don't think the film would have been nearly as strong or as impactful. I believe the end of the manga hints at them ending up together in the future, but the manga and film are first and foremost about remorse, forgiveness, redemption, friendship, and healing, and I think it handled those themes exceptionally well.

[@osolsl9321]

Great analysis. Just two points. 1. Shoya’s mother ripped her earring off herself to show her apology and feel what Shoko went through. 2. From Shoko’s standpoint It wasn’t really like forgiving because she had very low self-esteem and always felt guilty for putting so much stress on her family as well as ruining Shoya’s friendship. She always thought it was because of her disability that she was getting bullied and it couldn’t be helped.

The thing that pissed me off the most is the girl with the glasses never understanding her role in the bullying. Like she truly believed her hands were clean bc physically she didn’t do anything to Shoko. Then she had the audacity to raise her voice? Oh hell no. Otherwise, I loved this movie for the very realistic angle it took

[@coffintears5821]

Well honestly i dont see what she did wrong. I think the black haired girl contributed to the bullying the most

[@therealeren2045]

She's much worse in the manga. I hated that fake plastic bitch.

[@tdfern1]

Man people seems still to love talk about this movie even after 3 years it's been released. Well I did like the movie and most (if not, all) of the characters and how excellent adapts the themes from the manga (which I read the manga even when it was still serializing in Weekly Shonen Magazine, although I didn't think it was gonna be a hit back then as it is now). However, I think the manga does it slighly better.

[@mischief7781]

Wow it came out 3 years ago?! I thought it was released last year!

[@tdfern1]

@@mischief7781 probably when it premiered in your local theaters but yes, it theatrically released in Japan back in September 2016 (Geez looking back 2016 was kind of unique year for anime).

I no joke sobbed for 30 mins after watching the silent voice after that I just went to sleep.

[@stellakatsarska4589]

i dont understand why people compare Your Name and A Silent Voice so much. Like yes they do have some similiarities but they focus on completely different things. Both stories have meaningful relationships between two people but Your Name is more about the love and connection itself and A Silent Voice is about the personal struggles of a human and how the people around you can change you for the better.

[@osolsl9321]

Probs because its was released in the same year at almost the same period.

This film taught me what Anxiety truly is! A lot of people think it's about Fear....it isn't. It's about Perception!

[@innocentboi7321]

I have just watched this for the first time and, holy shit, it's so beautiful. I wish i could return to the first time I watched it, so i can emotionally enjoy it again.

[@rayrowl]

as someone who struggles with depression and social anxiety seeing shoya slowly overcoming it and at the end when he was finally able to see the faces of his peers really hit me hard and helped me push through my struggles a lot i’ll always love this movie so much and it’s so refreshing to see these struggles portrayed accurately in media

[@borin9063]

F u Browntable. I've watched it. And its my favorite movie cuz of you. None of todays Hollywood blockbusters could make me feel these emotions as this moive did. This is truly an amazing movie. It moved me a lot on a emotional and mental level. 10/10

[@normaluser6148]

I have a feeling that A Silent Voice has a personal connection to everyone when it cames to human emotions. Anxiety, depression, even suicidal thoughts. It's very difficult to get out of this shell that is your past, the things you've done can never leave your mind, it posions your mind with thoughts of self blame and this movie is a hard realization of this and because of this it's one of my favorites.

“Your Name” just doesn’t personally connect to me as much as “Silent Voice”

[@mike2207]

@Piano Piano both of them were meant to connect to people. "Your name" didnt do that for me.

[@richardq.auguis6117]

@@mike2207 i think all know what a silent voice is.. For me a silent voice is the good movie for real life individuals... Actually same for kimi no na wa,but the kimi no na wa is like a fantasy like animated movie that they will change body and the time is changing... So a silent voice win in the real life stories. A silent voice is that anime that you will learn on story.. While on the other hand,kimi no na wa, They more focused on connecting people . But they are same good movie.. We can say the pros and cons of this kinds of anime movies is, a silent voice is more in reality and kimi no na wa is more in connecting people... That's all my toughts .

[@mike2207]

lare 1 connecting people? The 2 main characters are meant to be connected but we barely get to see how they are connected. The lesbian relationship is the only relationship we actually get to properly see instead of a fast montage that literally skips the whole development of the whole relationship. Your name does connect people who otherwise would never meet each other. But the way they display is crappy.

[@richardq.auguis6117]

@@mike2207 nah if you didnt get my point,then your choice.. Its my opinion btw.

"I want you to teach me how to live" Oh god that was the heartbreaking and wholesome at the same time

In the Japanese version it was more like “I want you to help me live”

[@RaptorzTheGamer]

When I saw the community post that you were making a video on A Silent Voice, literally couldn’t contain how happy I was. Both Your Name and A Silent Voice share my #1 favourite film slot as they both helped me immensely in a dark time when I needed them. It opened up a whole new world of anime and communities for me, and even after reading every manga/light novel for both IPs, I still get goosebumps when I see any image/mention of them. I hope that as more people talk about A Silent Voice and also the effects of anxieties, depression and bullying, we as a society will come closer to acceptance of those who can’t accept themselves. So sincerely, thank you for covering this Browntable! Also, “Shirt pls!” :)

[@tendofan]

Shirt pls! It’s funny, where I watched it subbed the line went “I want you to help me live.” This video really helped me appreciate this movie more. I still feel like it’s not perfect, but it definitely knows what it’s trying to say.

I bullied a girl in my 1th to 4th grade because my life was a living hell at home, got bullied myself for years Until 10th grade but depression shame, guilt and other stuff started to get to me to the point i wanted to kill myself until very recently when i finnaly moved on from my past life and mistakes and moved on to a somewhat better life full of aceptance of what happened and forgiving myself, however unlike the protag i didnt get a group of friends or people who stick with me when i need them, i have bo friends no purpose im just adrift, i have moved on from depression but now i dont feel anything anymore only boredom and ocasional fun When gaming, im all alone and it migth be best this way, even tho i have moved on i still think about what my life coulda been if i had a good family if i had friends who loved me, if i had a purpose a meaning, well at least im not miserable everyday and did so much to move away from my past, man this movie hits hard and i loved this anime very much due to some resemblances.
