Isn`t it awesome how a "cartoon" can grab your heart and squeeze it...

[HiAdrian]

@Kalipp0 True. Have you seen Grave of the Fireflies?

This is one of the most moving scenes in anything I've ever seen or read. It really conveys how a lifetime of poverty and violence have made Mugen's heart rock hard. The song is a brilliant choice. It's a folk song about a mother selflessly toiling without complaint so her children can have a better life. The compassion in the song contrasts with the absolute lack of compassion in Mugen's life, but there's a sense of toil, hardship and iron resolve in both.

@HumbleYourSelfXxxX parts i particularly noted were that his parents still watch over him who i believe were the two last spirits in the line who faded slowly. in the end he realizes he lived a life without regrets and is comfortable with the choices he made, but he ends up regretting that he couldn't know his friends better or spend more time with the people he managed to care about.

[jeremystery]

@HumbleYourSelfXxxX a lot of it is ambiguous or in-explicit but some of the meaning behind the scenes show that mugen found beauty and content in the simple parts of his rough and tragic life, that no matter how terrible or shameful something may be it is insignificant compared to the universe, mugen is rejected by both the world, his friends, and the heavens, he lives as a truly free person but it has made him alone, and beauty can be found in all places (where he grew up).
