When I watched Grave of the Fireflies, I was drunk, so that was fun...
...not gonna lie, cried my eyes out. I usually don't get like that. At most, a single tear might roll down, and I can probably count the number of times on my hands. I'm a rock when it comes to sad movies, but I've never seen anything that goddamned sad. It's not even fair, how upsettingly crushing that story is. Or maybe I was just a moody kind of drunk. I don't think so, though. Maybe I should watch it again sober to make sure
GOTF is moment after moment of just "Awwww... NOOOOO! Wh-what? Oh no! Oh please god, no! It can't BE! WHYYY?!" Or at least that's how I remember it, being fully sloshed as I was. It's brutal.
But it's not really what I'd call disturbing. Heavy and impactful, sure. Come to think of it I don't think I've ever seen any anime that was truly disturbing to me. Not sure why that is but for whatever reason the weird/terrifying stuff doesn't get to me.
Well... I can think of two distinct moments. The first is that hospital scene in Akira with the teddy monster. The little jingle and just the imagery... or more, the way things moved, definitely upset me a little bit. That one scene in Perfect Blue was pretty awful, too. I won't spoil it... the one when she was playing in the crime show. I just feel like it encapsulated every aspect of the experience she had there... ...Perfect Blue was generally very good at injecting complex emotional states into you and that scene cut right into me. That was traumatic. It portrays things in a way where you almost can't help but experience things as the main character does. It's a pretty twisted movie. Very intense in a subtle and sinister way. Like actually being crazy, you don't nessarily realize what its doing to you, but you always sort of feel it. And it feels really wrong, though you're not always sure why.
