Another "girl power" anime, probably reflecting powerlessness of women in the Japanese society. Yes, a current Prime Minister of Japan is a woman but Elizabeth I and Katherine II were absolute rulers, yet their position did not signify a feministic streak in 16th century England or in 18th Russia.
The movie is beautifully done and has a very interesting idea of an afterlife. In the afterlife, people die turning to "nothingness", achieve Paradise on the Gold Mountain, or remain in limbo continuing some version of their previous lives.
