From the majestic urban backdrop amidst a fireworks show, metaphorically symbolising the explosive fluctuating nature of mental instability, to the wonderfully drawn character models that expressively exhume a variety of emotions. Heck, I'm getting emotional just writing about the film! God damn! Kyoto Animation have really outdone themselves in terms of capitalising on the source material's drawing style. The sheer realism embedded within the animation made me weep tears atleast four times. The medium of anime rarely exceeds this level of writing. Beautifully written, gorgeously realised and touchingly human. Never did it feel forced, the tangible romance blossoming between Shoya and Shoko. Never did it exhume desperation, the suicidal tendencies for the sake of melodrama. Never did it feel artificial, his longing for redemption. Yoshida wrote every single character with a colossal amount of humanity. The audience has to feel his weakened mentality and earnest personality into wanting to right the wrongs he caused. Transforming a grotesque bully into the sympathetic protagonist was always going to be tough.
Overwhelmed with tainted reminiscence, Yoshida does not shy away from the original manga's poignant message. The verbal, physical and downright inhumane abuse that Shoko received was enough to make me look away. So to witness the first act, whilst shedding a few tears almost instantly, was a hard-hitting yet tantalisingly emotional experience.
Just an indication that it had been "read". But quite rightly, I received no response. I even contacted my "friend" a few years ago to apologise profusely. I've realised that for so long, believe me, as I myself was a bully. No one should be afflicted with that much pain and solidarity for being themselves. Watching bullying makes me physically wretch. This review may get personal, apologies in advance. Having realised his insensitive approach, he attempts to make amends by befriending her and apologising. After nearly committing suicide, Shoya reflects back to his elementary school days where he bullied a young Shoko for her deafness. Yamada and Kyoto Animation have produced one of the finest modern anime features in the last decade, enough to make me realise my erroneous judgements and how they have affected my so-called friends at the time.
A SILENT VOICE FIREWORKS HOW TO
Not necessarily due to the absence of a human sense and how to deal with it, but the actions of bullying that I myself may have delivered to others at a naively young age. Having, well had, a deaf family member allowed this tragic high school drama to shroud me in a wave of familiarity. There's nothing more cruel and twisted than a bully destroying the life of an innocent, just because of how different they are to everyone else.
