I have to say that I just watched the first episode of this show and I have never, ever cried while watching a first episode until now. That is a truly shocking development. To make me cry I need to honestly care about the characters and share their feelings. This is something that takes many episodes (or at least a reasonably sized movie like Grave of the Fireflies), yet somehow I found myself crying at the end of episode 1.
If the rest of the show is half as touching as this, I'll be a wreck.
