AishiCloud★ 9I watched this anime as a kid and re-watching made me feel nostalgic. This story has made me feel a lot of emotions I don't feel often. Yes, it's an older anime but nothing went wrong. The art style is beautiful and so is the nature scenery. The characters in this anime are all meaningful and the ending is definitely satisfying. Unlike most anime, I also liked how they brought up awareness of hunting. Not a lot of animes talk about the lives of indigenous people which made me enjoy the anime even more. Although the main target for this anime is for kids, ifyou have the free time I definitely recommend watching.
