Hello there , My friend Obena and I decided to sit down and watch A silent voice for the first time. It was such an amazing movie, there was so much to talk about and critique and the story telling was so impact as well.
(DISCLAIMER)As mentioned in the video, if you see that we crack a smile during some very depressive scenes, its just an automatic response to stress and uncomfortable scenes within the Movie.
We do hope you enjoy our reaction.

the neat thing about the English dub version is the actress who voiced Shoko is actually deaf
I love that you guys noticed how fake the blonde girl was, "crocodile tears"? I like that term. Compared to all the bullies, she was definitely the worst. I don't know if you noticed it at the start, but during the singing choir, the blonde girl pretended to start to sing causing Shoko to sing early then she had the audacity to pretend to be helping Shoko how to start properly to paint herself as a "hero".
No we didn't even pick up on that, well maybe Obena did but I definitely didn't, nice catch, wooow that is crazy
This was one for the books😊😊
Ueno is actually a wonderful girl. She's just not an idealized character like Shoko. If you watch this film several times, you get into the essence of her actions and what she is trying to convey to Shoko.
the way she deals with shoko is not wonderful though
@@somber087 She is honest with her. Ueno treats Shoko like a full-fledged person. And tries to break her shell. Ueno is a catalyst for Shoko to begin to change her view of herself.
I copied this comment from another post and it gives great detail on Ueno's perspective
I understand that many of you may hate Ueno and that is fine but it seems most have forgotten In grade school the first person to reach out to Nishimiya when she arrives was Ueno, this is made abundantly clear where she asks for Nishimiya’s notebook while everyone else was still shocked that she was deaf.
During lessons, Nishimiya would ask what the teacher says because the Teacher never changed the way he taught to account for her disability, so Ueno took it upon herself to explain to Nishimiya what he was saying causing her to miss parts of the lessons as well.
As time goes on, the Nishimiya situation is constantly complained about amongst her peers because sacrifices have to be made in order to compensate for her and integrate her into their school life, Ueno attempts to get this through to Nishimiya in her notebook when they are practicing choir (by saying just mouth the words) but they lose the choir competition as a result because it just doesn’t sound as good anymore, and Nishimiya can only apologize.
Please don’t forget these are kids, they lack the maturity and reasoning of someone of our age, so instead of seeing Nishimiya as someone who needs additional help, they see her as a burden that’s costing them everything. The last straw for Ueno was being told that she’d have to learn sign language to better communicate with Nishimiya, where she states it’s easier for her to write to her, and the assistant teacher says “well it’s easier for Nishimiya to do ASL”, not accounting for how Ueno feels and instead, again, accommodating for Nishimiya’s deficiency (and it’s made evident this what the impression the author wanted to give off when they show the reading scene where Ueno is told to stop reading, yet Nishimiya who can’t correctly pronounce the words, is allowed to continue) AS A KID this stings because nobody is taking to account HOW YOU feel.
Ueno explains this feeling to her on the Ferris Wheel and she says she doesn’t want to be friends and can’t bring herself to forgive her, which is understandable because to Ueno, Nishimiya only burdens those she interacts with, which isn’t exactly true (from our omniscient eyes) but isn’t exactly false either (from what she’s seen).
Ueno tells her it’s okay to hate her because Ueno hates her too and they can act as if they tolerate each other for the group (for Ishida’s sake obviously, more obvious in the manga) but Nishimiya says “I don’t hate you, I hate myself ” this statement causes Ueno to erupt because she feels she’s not listening to her and she’s not trying to understand her even to this day, all Nishimiya can do is “apologize” ...this moment was Ueno trying to compromise for Ishida in her own way without exactly lying to herself about how she feels about Nishimiya, but Nishimiya, In Ueno’s eyes, rejects this. We, the Audience, know Nishimiya harbors no ill will against her.
Ueno loves Ishida, this has been obvious since they were kids, and it’s still the case when they’ve grown up, she regrets not standing up for him when everyone else used him as a scapegoat. She is doing everything in her power to get him to forgive her and accept her just as Ishida is doing the SAME for Nishimiya.
To Ueno, Nishimiya coming to the school ruined everything, the friendship with Ishida and the chemistry within the classroom as a whole. In her eyes, she’s only seen Nishimiya as being a burden and when Ishida almost loses his life to save Nishimiya, she is justifiably upset.
You seriously cannot tell me she had no right to be when the guy she cares for and loves nearly kills himself in order to save the girl who she sees as being only a burden for him, in her eyes this reinforces her belief. She confronts her at the hospital and attacks her, letting out all her frustrations and anger on Nishimiya and also her mom when she shows to defend her.
The only person who can understand how Ueno feels in this scene is Nishimiya’s sister. THIS is why Nishimiya’s sister doesn’t stop Ueno, and does anyone give her shit for it? No.
I really don’t see how anyone says her arc is bad because if you pay any attention to the supporting characters, you may not like it, but you can understand where she’s coming from. She doesn’t have to have a redeeming character arc for her character arc to be successful.
because a character doesn’t react the way you think you would doesn’t make them inherently bad characters.
She says back then she couldn’t understand her as a person but she was doing the BEST SHE COULD, but Nishimiya couldn’t understand her either, and so she intentionally started to badmouth her in order to give the hint to stay away, but Nishimiya doesn’t take up on it. (Again I feel the Manga explains this better and shows the bullying wasn’t as immediate as the movie let’s on)
She never denies her part of her bullying after they grow up, in fact she takes responsibility for it as opposed to back when they were kids, this is growth from her as a kid because she let Ishida take the fall alone.
I think that it’s entirely the teachers/adults fault for forcing the kids into a situation they were not prepared for, they weren’t equipped with knowledge and maturity they have now.
Everyone has their own way of projecting emotions and their frustrations, I’m not saying she was in the right for attacking Nishimiya because she wasn’t, Nishimiya did not mean for Ishida to be hurt, BUT I’m saying I can understand where Ueno is coming from having almost lost someone she truly cares for and loves.
The same way people say Ueno “development was weak” can be said for Nishimiya. She’s still apologetic and despite everyone’s attempts to make her see the good in the world and in herself she still tries to kill herself, is that fair to state? Of course not, because we can understand her and where she’s coming from, we know depression and self-loathing can’t be remedied with something from a first aid kit. It takes time and it takes self reflection and even that, sometimes isn’t enough.
Is her anger misplaced, in our eyes maybe, but in her eyes no, it’s all about perspective.
I don’t think it’s fair to say Ueno’s reaction was unjustified either, because at this point, Ishida hasn’t woken up yet and is a coma, she’s again grieving in the sense you would for loss, and emotions are at an all time high for everyone.
Her perspective is “you did this to him and he’s dead and you aren’t”. She doesn’t know if he’s waking up or not, she just knows Nishimiya was there and Nishimiya was trying to kill herself and Ishida stopped her, and now he’s badly hurt.
This enforces her stance that Nishimiya only brings misery.
I think we can all agree with the sentiment of “actions have consequences”
Nishimiya actions resulted in Ishida being hurt.
Did she mean for it happen? Of course not. But it did, and Ueno (who’s already shown to be violent) is projecting her anger on who she sees is the source.
I do advise reading the manga because the Manga protrays this soo much better and gives soo much more details in this scene.
In conclusion, I really appreciate the take on Ueno’s character and she gets soo much hate for being human.
Very goods points, Thanks for bringing out more of Ueno's perspective, Since we only watched the animation we don't know the full story and many of the characters backgrounds. I can't blame any of the children in the story for their behavior, and the adults are really the ones at fault, so I can understand why Ueno's would feel a particular way, the part where the teacher called her out on reading was really menacing to me, and although I don't understand her motives, I do understand trauma responses and the fact that she is a kid.
4:09 You cut out this moment, but there was clearly a game of heroine there. This is how real bastards play.
the hospital visit she had with Granny was for her hearing aids she lost Hearing in one of her ears completely
