**SPOILERS** This was an awesome and touching anime. However, the ending is heartbreaking.
The art is excellent, the characters are well thought out. It is a great story of learning how to persevere through trials and tragedy. Still, this ending when her brother dies is too tragic. I didn't expect that they would make it home and then Yuuki would die! Good Lord! It was so tragic.
I recommend that NO CHILD UNDER 15 watches this! It is truly heart-rending and difficult to watch. For anyone over 15, this is a deeply moving anime. Definitely not light-anime fare but a deeply emotional journey.
