Grave of the fireflies is a lot easier to stomach then Barefoot Gen at least. Grave of the fireflies could apply to any war situation, which makes Grave of the fireflies even more powerful in my opinion.
Barefoot Gen is a pretty similar story, but set right in Hiroshima. Written by someone who lived through the ordeal, a truly haunting movie.
The whole movie is available on you tube.
The bomb drops at 30 minutes in. Although historically accurate it is very graphic, cannot be unseen.
