    Damn, I feel bad but I found myself laughing at the weird juxtaposition of it all. Like, not a “haha funny” laugh, but more “haha wtf”. I totally understand the point is the suddenness and confusion, but I guess I didn’t expect it to take such a quick turn…

    It’s interesting to see the horrors of the bomb depicted for a child audience, like “You’ll get sick if you’re near the snow” and “Daddy isn’t coming home”. It’s disturbing that this needed to be made, and perhaps more disturbing that it’s just as relevant today, even if our society has “forgotten” about the threat.

    As with most atomic bomb related media, it hits deep. Thanks for posting.
