Madama Butterfly

Madama Butterfly is an animated story/opera about a woman who falls in love with a sailor, bears his child, only to find that he was an asshole schmuck (typical). She then kills herself I'm assuming, and then reincarnates into a butterfly that lands on her now adult daughter's head, bringing the cycle around again. I thought it was interesting and to-the-point. There were some weird elements, like her pregnancy being a fish tank, but it made the animation somewhat poetic. I like how the plot was relatable. There are a ton of people in the military facing separation because someone on either side couldn't be faithful.
