Maquia - When the Promised Flower Blooms

[SelfCloak]

I just saw it yesterday, and it's a great movie. I'd even say it ranks up as a classic. Amazing soundtrack, too.

What I found the most interesting about the story is something that has to do with the Iorph being warned that loving others would bring them true loneliness in the end.

Spoiler

While Maquia, with her son Ariel, had a happy life with its ups and downs, Leilia and Krim lived absolutely miserable lives, with Leilia forced into an arranged marriage and forbidden from seeing her daughter, and Krim losing his lover Leilia and failing to convince her to leave her place again and again. The warning came completely true for them.
