Beyond Ghibli | Haibane Renmei - The Girl Who Fell to Old Home @BeyondGhibli | Uploaded 5 years ago | Updated 4 hours ago
The work of Yoshitoshi ABe is at once comforting and haunting, melancholic yet hopeful, and this dichotomy is at the heart of Haibane Renmei - his doujin-turned-anime series about loss, love, and halos. Its angelic exploration of depression is a striking work that still resonates today, and in this video I explore why the girls of Old Home and their harrowing plights have stuck with me in the years since release.

Mild spoilers throughout this video.
