Synopsis

Hadashi no Gen tells the story of Gen Nakaoka, a spirited young boy living in Hiroshima during the final months of World War II.

As Japan faces increasing hardship and devastating bombing raids, Gen and his family struggle to survive amidst growing scarcity and uncertainty.

They hold onto hope that the war will end soon and that their city will be spared the worst, unaware of the impending tragedy that awaits them.

The anime focuses on their daily lives and resilience in the face of unimaginable circumstances as the shadow of a world-altering event looms over Hiroshima.
