In this size this poster is very hard to come by and is in super high demand. It is the second time we have had this poster in our gallery.

Normally we provide an image of the front and the back of the poster. However, we have provided many additional images so you can clearly see the overall condition of this exact poster. As with any genuine vintage piece of this age, there are some signs of age/handling visible in the imagery, and we have taken this into account when pricing.

There is currently a boom in reprints of this poster (mostly B2 size) flooding the market and for sale right now as Ghibli has been producing these for the past two years officially. There are also many unofficial reprints flooding the market. Many of these are for sale as vintage originals online. This however, is 1000% an original. Studio Ghibli is undisputedly the most in demand Japanese animation export as is this movie poster - it is loved by collectors, one-off buyers and many other customers.

Japanese B1 (71 x 103 cm) very large size.

Grave of the Fireflies (Japanese: 火垂るの墓, Hepburn: Hotaru no Haka) is a 1988 Japanese animated war tragedy film based on the 1967 semi-autobiographical short story of the same name by Akiyuki Nosaka. It was written and directed by Isao Takahata, and animated by Studio Ghibli for the story's publisher Shinchosha Publishing (making it the only Studio Ghibli film under Tokuma Shoten ownership that had no involvement from them). The film stars Tsutomu Tatsumi, Ayano Shiraishi, Yoshiko Shinohara [ja] and Akemi Yamaguchi. Set in the city of Kobe, Japan, the film tells the story of two siblings, Seita and Setsuko, and their desperate struggle to survive during the final months of the Second World War. Grave of the Fireflies received critical acclaim and has been ranked as one of the greatest war films of all time and has been recognized as a major work of Japanese animation.

It is over 38 years old!
