And don't forget that there are Shintos in east Russia before the Revolution you know. Most of the Russian shintos fled to Japan after the Revolution.

Oh, and this was one of the heaviest melodrama animes i've seen in the past few years. If the first episode manages to make me feel sad, i know that this will be a huge tearjerker in the end.

This is one of those animes that makes you feel like you want to watch something happy after that. It'll make you feel bad for whatever you're doing after watching this.
