After all the horrors endured on the show, Shu never wavers in his perception that life is worth living. Now and Then, Here and There is a testament to the human spirit.
That is because he is a paragon, a type of aspirational hero, like old school Superman or Sam from the Lord of the Rings. Other characters in a story change because of him. I saw a review in TH-cam were the reviewer just couldn't get it even after I explained it to him. It is rarely used nowdays maybe the protagonist of DemonSlayer.

Kenshin Kimura from Samurai X is also what I would consider a paragon.

@@mrtey7283 This is not a show for young children, IMO, which Miyazaki's movies are. The intended audience is completely different. The story IS better than any Miyazaki movie in any case.
@@cunningsmile4166 I love love Miyazaki's movies, but I vaguely remember someone prominent (I think it was Evangelion director Anno Hideaki) saying that Ghibli films are more like idealized interpretation of real life. They're beautiful to look at, poignant, and nostalgic, but ultimately it's all fantasy. It doesn't touch on the real evils of the world & suffering of people the way this anime does. No romanticizing, just harsh reality. Yes, there's Grave of the Fireflies, but that's an exception in the Ghibli catalogue.
A story that actually took the time to build up a world and how the characters adapted to the world in comparison to those already forced to live in said world
Finished this anime today and man I gotta say manly tears came out. I totally loved the show and how Shu went through all that without changing. I can't get this ost out of my head. 10/10 a masterpiece for me. These types of isekai's are rare nowadays.
I remember feeling the same way when I finished it a few years ago. Whenever I look back on this series, I remember that void it gave me is still there.
that first music makes me remember dat kind of sweet happiness even when you're very aware of your ONLY leading a very ordinary life where there must be some very small things that can make you smile and enjoyable. We usually call this a kind of ''romantic life'' that looks simple but full of happiness so you already feel satisfied and glad overall.
I really enjoy this anime back then, even rewatched it a few times and still gets me with all the bits...god damn i can't listen to this without feeling like crying. Damn you Taku Iwasaki!!
This brings back memories of the children that the young girl chose to stay behind and raise... wow such a tragically good show makes me cry just thinking about it.
Cada vez que recuerdo este anime y escucho esta melodía, siento una presión muy fuerte en el pecho y me es imposible no llorar. Una obra que deja un mensaje muy importante y muy potente, no perder NUNCA la esperanza.
Make sure to give credit where credit is due as the first part is taken from Rachminoff's 2nd Symphony. However, Iwasaki Taku implemented it wonderfully into this composition, creating something very wonderful. A round of cheerful applause in admiration from me.
really? if you might still be on here, using this account, I would like to ask which soundtrack you refer to? I just listened to the whole concert, wondering which one you're talking about.
Exelente anime, lastima que ya no se ven tantos asi. Lo vi porque vi que el compositor era el mismo que hizo la musica de los ovas de kenshin( otra obra maestra).
It's funny. This anime is among the most horrible yet beautiful shows I've ever watched. It really manages to create that kind of nostagia that even the worst of times can bring. Made me feel like living and dying at the same time.
I didn’t expect this anime to be so tragic😢. Seriously tho how is shu and sara suppose to live their lives after seeing all the chaos that they went through
This is an absolute masterpiece of a song. I love the touch of Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2 Adagio in there. However, there seems to be one brief piece of music from this anime that I can't find ANYWHERE. It's from the moment in the middle of episode 8 when Shu and Lala-Ru take off on the bike at night. It was a calming and atmospheric song that had a nice 80s/90s vibe to it, but it's not featured in the official soundtrack. :C
It is sad that there are hardly shows like that out there. I mean sure there quite a bunch thst cover the same topics, but certain aspects ,without spoilering anything, aren't talked about at all.
does someone have the name of each movement? i love the last mvmt - (spoiler:) when it played during lala ru's final moments I really hoped she would still have some life remaining, but alas...
I guess they're also not played quite the same either. This rendition is deliberate and the tempo is slightly changed. And the piano is a great effect, I don't think it's originally in Rachmaninoff's Symphony?
could some one help me im trying to find a track by the composer taku iwasaki its extremly hard to find here is wat it sounds like (watch?v=7NNjRcy0y_U - yotube)

Every once in awhile I would watch a fresh anime. I came upon this one on a cool summer night at my old apartment… magnificent!
this anime is timeless.
孤独で死が間近にある世界で、大事な人が次々に傷つけられ殺されていくなか、人との繋がりの重要性を見失わない主人公はとても強くかっこよくかった。
Best Isekai anime. For some reason, I want this anime to be kept as a hidden gem.
こんな感情移入したアニメ今まで無いかも
12:48 = Masterpiece for the ages
Farewell and in Victory men
I just randomly thought of this show today and haven't heard this song in about ten years.
What a magnificent song (and show) this is
Sometimes there are no good answers.
どんなに残酷でも前向きに生きる決断をしたキャラ達に拍手
良い曲をありがとうございます
サラには強く生きて欲しいが、せめてシュウは大人になったらサラの家族に生存報告だけでもしてあげられないかな…
またララと再会して夕日を一緒に眺めると良いね…
静御前
ナブカは良いキャラでしたね😭
生まれてくる世界が違えば優しい人として長生き出来たのかなーと思います
Yeah Sara is really brave already.
As for Lararu, its really sad she faded away in the last scene.
シュウがハムドを持っていた棒が粉々になるまで殴りつけるシーンで流れてましたね。
今聴いてもなお、あの時のシュウの怒りと虚しさが思い出されます。紛うことなき名曲。
Dat scene is one of the most unforgettable ones in the entire series, if you ask me.
Shu even moves like a stuntman, jumping onto here and there so freely. lol
This anime has touched me on a level that no other work of art ever managed to do. I consider this to be a masterpiece.
I dare say if the anime show is condensed into a 3 hour film it would trump every Miyazaki movie
@@mrtey7283 LOL

The best Isekai period
One of the original ones.
It’s not like their’s much competition to begin with
A story that actually took the time to build up a world and how the characters adapted to the world in comparison to those already forced to live in said world
@@dribbler456pls8 there's so many isekai and yet so few bother to put in effort or be original about it....it's shameful!
Probably the most overlooked as well.
Taku iwasaki's music reaches my soul its unreal. Hes my fav japanese composer
One of my favorite composers of all time.

You're wrong, Shu changed, he grew and his attachment to peace grew as well
Can i know this anime title ?
@@muhammadimtiyaz7342 Now and then, Here and there
it's the title
@@lisbethsoma2441 by not changed, he means more so like other characters, like Sara. No one should go through that.
i just watched this and now i feel like there’s a void in my chest
I remember feeling the same way when I finished it a few years ago. Whenever I look back on this series, I remember that void it gave me is still there.
Yea
just finished it, similar feelings. havent been sucked into an anime world like this in quite some time.
Same here dude! What a masterpiece this anime was. Props to the dude with the myanimelist reviews
I can't get this anime out of my mind. The music just brings back all of the memories....
I have not heard the song over 10 years now or longer and as soon as this music came on it took you right back.
One of the most underrated works from Iwasaki Taku...
What an underrated jewel, there's been some time since i liked something as much as this.
There is light and hope, even in darkest of worlds.
Such a beautiful piece of music, guaranteed goosebumps every time I listen to it.
music like this really lets you know that we do have a soul deep inside.
that first music makes me remember dat kind of sweet happiness even when you're very aware of your ONLY leading a very ordinary life where there must be some very small things that can make you smile and enjoyable. We usually call this a kind of ''romantic life'' that looks simple but full of happiness so you already feel satisfied and glad overall.
Definitely an anime everybody should watch, it's so emotionally griping.
Mr. Iwasaki's music always captures the right emotion.
I really enjoy this anime back then, even rewatched it a few times and still gets me with all the bits...god damn i can't listen to this without feeling like crying. Damn you Taku Iwasaki!!
11 year old me after watching: "Ma Heart, Ma Soul"
18 years later : "Ma Heart, Ma Soul"
Whoever let you watch this anime at 11 needs their ass beat
@@seijiikari9395 it’s not a big deal, some kids are mature enough to handle it
One of my favourite anime.
This brings back memories of the children that the young girl chose to stay behind and raise... wow such a tragically good show makes me cry just thinking about it.
泣いちゃった
truly an anime almost forgotten in time
i have the same feeling too. it looks like it wasn;;t a hit in Japan. Even my local TV stations never ran it.
Love this anime and graves of the fireflies hits you hard. Anything that can make me cry makes me into a better person.
Just a boy and his stick
😏
against the world haha
He even uses it like Kendo, to all of our suprise!
Woah, he already did so many things that I like. I didn't know he did this. This guy is everywhere and awesome.
Finished watching this anime and when I heard this song at the end, I knew it was the best song on the soundtrack. Now it's part of my top 10
what a beautiful song wish we could get more anime like this
Sound a lot like Rachmaninoff's third movement from Symphony No. 2 in E minor, Op. 27. Taku iwasaki has great taste indeed.
“can we watch another sunset someday?” 💔
I could listen to this all day. Wait, I already have.
Beautiful beyond words! It’s like the feeling of love ❤️
Loved this song from the first time I heard it (only a couple of minutes ago) . Now I’ll go and watch the show.
First time for anything. Taku Iwasaki music is nothing i ever heard of before, It really makes me appreciate real music.
본지 20년이 다 되어가네.. 시간이 정말 빠르다.
마지막 현실세계로 돌아온 주인공처럼 꿈같았던 ..그시절 . 정말 잘 봤습니다
Cada vez que recuerdo este anime y escucho esta melodía, siento una presión muy fuerte en el pecho y me es imposible no llorar. Una obra que deja un mensaje muy importante y muy potente, no perder NUNCA la esperanza.
Just noticed the similarities between this and Rachmaninov Symphony 2: Adagio.
This anime has one of the best instrumentals. Excellent, if I may say.
Such a rarity to have track 1 be 20 minutes long.
There needs to be more people like the boy in this show.
He has a heart of gold. Brave and looks so cool.
Sara becomes a strong person by far
This music really will make you cry again and I remember all the characters in the show
10:45 , the climax of the second part of the song, is my absolute favorite.
Me too😋
It sounds exactly like _Rurouni Kenshin_ (Tsuioku hen & Seishou hen), but who cares it's absolutely beautiful ^-^
Great work Taku Iwasaki! :)
I thought exactly the same thing. ^^
Ima soko ni iru boku, tremenda joya.

Combine Tragic blockbuster (like this anime) with wonderful music gives ....MAKES YOU WONDER HOW TO SURVIVE LIFE WITH PAIN! Tears are flowing!
Blockbuster?
This show need to remake into a 2hour movie. It would be perfect if gilbli remake this film
Why would you remake 5 hours of content into 2hours? What a stupid suggestion
00:00 que hermoso
Exelente anime, lastima que ya no se ven tantos asi. Lo vi porque vi que el compositor era el mismo que hizo la musica de los ovas de kenshin( otra obra maestra).
this anime make me feel hope. :)
Pretty easy to do after it's taken all the hope from you... that tiny bit it gives back in the end ends up feeling like an ocean....
This sounds a lot like Rachmaninoff Symphony 2 Adagio!
Amazing anime
이만한 수작이 다시 나오기가 쉽지 않을 것이다.
작가가 전달하고자 하는 메세지, 음악 모두 훌륭하다.
그 중 가슴 시리도록 아름다운 앤딩곡이 백미이다.
Best 20 minute song I know of.
Abelia-sama!
It's funny. This anime is among the most horrible yet beautiful shows I've ever watched. It really manages to create that kind of nostagia that even the worst of times can bring. Made me feel like living and dying at the same time.
The ending song always made me feel sad..
ahhhh i remember my 9 year old self sitting on the couch and watching this anime....
bruh you watched this when you were 12??!!
9*
I didn’t expect this anime to be so tragic😢. Seriously tho how is shu and sara suppose to live their lives after seeing all the chaos that they went through
as long as youve got your life... something good is bound to happen

Same!
don't forget Boo, he make what believe thats correct.
He changes to nabuca and save shu from the jail
lala ru, sara, shu :')
best ost ever
does someone have the name of each movement? i love the last mvmt - (spoiler:)
when it played during lala ru's final moments I really hoped she would still have some life remaining, but alas...
シュウが俺がいるから何とかするから大丈夫って言ったのに、なすすべなく悲劇が訪れる。こんな主人公未だにいない。今見るとスタッフが豪華
