Clearly not for everyone, but this conveyed something I understand and which I need. I watched it first when I was 15 but now I'm 20 and my view of this movie got so much stronger. Anyone who thinks this is just weird and perverted clearly doesn't get how deep this is. From difficult adolescence, to mental issues and subtle critic of the Japanese society. Powerful and raw as hell. The first line of the movie literally says it is for those who suffer. The ending is no Disney movie either, but it stays with you. And the symbolism? 10/10 - I don't know these actors but this is their life work. I guess it's this good because they adapted a huge masterpiece of a manga within a 2hrs movie, so that makes it overwhelming. Honestly this movie found me, I didn't find it. My personal highlight was Takeo's actor, because he reached me like no one else could.
