Animated feature film adaptation of Takeda Kazuyoshi's manga about war. Depicts a tale of friendship forged on the battlefield in a world of devastation.
At the tail end of the Pacific War, 21-year-old Japanese soldier Tamaru (Itagaki Rihito) is stationed on the tropical Peleliu Island. An aspiring manga artist, Tamaru is recognized for his talent and gets assigned to "Commendations Officer," which involves documenting his comrades' final heroic moments for the families they leave behind. He glorifies their deaths with occasional embellishments, finding support from private Yoshiki (Nakamura Tomoya). What things do these two young soldiers see on this crazed battlefield...
