So much in just one word: yamazakura. At first I thought of the whiskey and its combination of flavors, which might not sound like they work together but they do. To me, that represents the children of tomorrow beautifully.
The cherry blooms that fell were believed to bring good fortune to courtships of people left behind in the wars , cus most male members were doomed into war.
It’s also the whiskey lol hahahahaha

I agree with you , Harry , it’s frightening because wherever there are deaths , they are mostly children and young adults.
