Not that it might have made any difference, iSm, but did you watch Grave of the Fireflies in a dubbed version, or in its original language? (Just wondering if the little girl's voice was an annoyance factor, or if she bothered you for other reasons.)
As for me, I haven't cried any harder for any other movie, ever. I don't plan to revisit this one anytime at all, but I was sure blown away by its raw emotional power, and startled by the simple beauty of the art and animation. But, a second viewing would either put me through the wringer again, or might not be as effective, in which case, that would kind of suck as well.
