* After a tortured Shikishima finally explains what had happened on Odo Island and at sea, Noriko doesn't dismiss his words or tell him to snap out of his funk. Instead, she listens to him, then gently tells him that everyone who survived the war was meant to, and that no matter what happens, they must endeavor to live on. Even as Shikishima has another breakdown, Noriko embraces him tightly. Considering how little mental health was understood at this time, Noriko's steadfastness with and empathy for Shikishima is remarkable.

** Because of his shame for his actions (or more accurately, lack thereof) during the war, Shikishima keeps Norkio and Akiko at arm's length, denying that they're his family even though, in pretty much every way that matters, Noriko is his wife and Akiko is his daughter. Akitsu tells him that fate brought them together as a family, and he should embrace it. Finally, at the end of the film, Shikishima seems to take this words to heart, prepared to truly accept Noriko into his life as his wife, and Akiko as his daughter.
