"Tokyo Magnitude 8.0" is quite a depressing anime.

This is the story of two siblings who are surprised by a very strong earthquake during a trip that turns Tokyo into rubble and ashes.

Luckily, the two meet a woman who continues to take care of them.

Of course, the siblings want to go back to their parents and the woman to her little daughter, all three of them not knowing whether their loved ones are still alive.

The story is told appropriately to the situation, which progresses relatively slowly and sluggishly.

The animations aren't outstanding and neither is the character design, because more value was placed on visualizing the destroyed Tokyo.

Here a sad story is told, but which is occasionally interrupted by glimmers of hope.

The anime is really good and suitable for everyone who is looking for something emotional.
