Film Reviews

 

When my sister was born,

I received a blue ribbon.

Written on it was something

to the effect of

“best big brother”,

with an illustration of a toddler

peering over a crib,

ogling a newborn baby.

Whenever Setsuko called out

for her big brother,

I got flashes of my own sister

calling out for me.

I look at how Seita handled

his newfound parental duties,

thrust upon him with callous disregard

for his readiness or willingness.

He accepted his new role,

caring for his sister with unfathomable

selflessness.

Through bombings.

Through starvation.

Through poverty…

…until the very end.

My sister calls me a

“good big brother”,

for which I am grateful.

But I was never a BEST brother

like Seita was to Setsuko.
