      It lost to Big Hero 6. It's because the academy people admitted that they don't watch all the submissions and basically pick the most popular one. That's why Frozen won the year before. Seeing that this is animation, I can see how they devalue it which is really pathetic on their behalf. Also, some dumbfuck in the Academy said they didn't watch this or Song of the Sea because they "don't like stupid Chinese shit" or something along those lines....

    Imagine this
    You, finding out your princess, your daughter, your friend is going to be taken against her will.
    You prepare yourselves with an army, each guard trained and ready to defend. You yourself and everyone around you on edge for the fight of your life against an unknown enemy. Battle ready.
    You see them descending from the sky. But they have no wepons, no elite army only a parade playing the cheery song of their victory. Arrows fly above you only to be, with no more effort than a wave of a hand, transformed into delicate flower that shower them and their instruments. Before the foot soldiers can even attack. They are, without expression or validation, dismissed. Everyone around you drops to sleep. The battle is over.
    Your daughter pleads begging for a chance to spread her words of regret and new found knowledge that the world is not defined by one thing. She preaches. A loyal follow of your enemy, undeterred by her words, trys to place a garment around her. They do not care that it would wipe away a human lifetime of knowledge. What she has discovered does not concern them, she is nothing but a rebellious child to be humored. They have existed for much longer than comprehensible.
    The princess cornered scrambled away for more time. They persist with grace and disregard her to once again place the garments on her shoulders. No one hears her but you and as she looks into your eyes, hoping, to tell you of your worth and love. The follower, discreetly from behind, gently places the garment on her shoulder. She is interrupted, she is silent, she gets up and walks away.
    The instruments start up again and with glory, flowers, and fanfare. You are powerless. The last interaction with your daughter was a sentence never completed as you looked into her eyes and saw everything in her life, any feelings, and any memory of you and your lives wiped away from her face. You are nothing. A puppet in a game someone set up for her to play just to be forgotten. It does not matter that she has your life and livelihood. A legacy. Because buddha is OP.

      According to the Buddhist cosmology, there are three main types of heavenly realms: the kāmaloka, the rūpaloka, and the arūpaloka. These realms are different levels of existence that beings can be reborn in depending on their kamma (actions) and mental states1
      The kāmaloka is the sensuous world, where beings experience sensual pleasures and pains. There are six heavenly realms in the kāmaloka, ranging from the lowest Cātummahārājika heaven (the abode of the four great kings) to the highest Paranimmita-vasavatti heaven (the abode of those who wield power over others’ creations). Beings in these realms have physical bodies and can engage in sexual activities, but they are also subject to aging, sickness, death, and rebirth1
      The rūpaloka is the form world, where beings experience mental bliss and calmness. There are sixteen heavenly realms in the rūpaloka, corresponding to the four stages of jhāna (meditative absorption). Beings in these realms have subtle bodies made of light and do not have sexual organs or sexual desires. They are free from sensual attachments, but they still have some subtle forms of craving and ignorance1
      The arūpaloka is the formless world, where beings experience pure consciousness without any physical or mental forms. There are four heavenly realms in the arūpaloka, corresponding to the four stages of arūpa jhāna (formless absorption). Beings in these realms have no bodies at all and do not have any sense of self or individuality. They are free from all forms of craving and attachment, but they still have some subtle forms of ignorance and delusion1
      Therefore, out of the three types of heavenly realms, only the kāmaloka has gender, while the rūpaloka and the arūpaloka do not. However, Buddhism teaches that none of these realms are permanent or ultimate. They are all subject to impermanence and dissolution. The only way to escape from the cycle of rebirth in these realms is to attain nirvāṇa, the cessation of all suffering and defilements.

    The whole scene was so much anxiety. Kaguya who was crying that they are coming for her and now she is just lured in. Her parents panicing instead of her. The moment she realized that it will happen, the moment the emperor touched her. She didn't want to die and yet it is like suicìde. She didn't go to the moon or went in peace, she just knew her life has to end because of her sadness and tragedy.
    The scene to me was pure anxiety and panic and not peacefull. Earth was her punishment and now they take her back to be free. But she realized earth wasn't all punishment and she wanted to enjoy it, but she couldn't.

    If any of you are like me (still kinda curious as to what this movie's message was), My best guess is that since what happened to Kaguya similarly relates to what dying is like (not feeling anything), the movie's message is that it is never worth dying early and forgetting all the memories you had when your were still alive.

    • @SiameseCats4ever
      @SiameseCats4ever 6 лет назад +35

      I take the message as that we crave for unnecessary material things (be them power, status, money) when all we need to be happy is already there in the present. As a princess of a higher realm this is how she came to Earth, her first years were of immense happiness because it represents still the mind as nature. Then she is taking to a society where a set of conditions and ilussions exist.

    They represent buddhism ideals, I think it's even a criticism of it, IMO. It preaches detachment from connections to people or the world in order to avoid suffering and pain, which ultimately results in a lack of empathy, love or compassion because you need connection and attachment in order to feel those. Buddhist ideals result in a radical inwards orientation that makes it impossible to care about anything that happens around you, as you become blind or simply indifferent to the pain of others around you.
    The princess on the other hand had rebelled against that. She felt love and attachment to her family and to humans and animals, she was the opposite of the celestial beings

      I don't think Buddhism is about detachment or not caring about anything or anyone. Quite the opposite really. Being aware of the temporal and fleeing nature of things and people, you learn to give your all in the moment and only in the moment, then, when the moment is over (no matter how long it actually takes) gently set yourself - and everything else - free. I find it beautiful in that sense.

    I believe that the ending demonstrates precisely that life is not only suffering or "filth" as the beings of the Moon said, but that, as Kaguya emphasizes, it is really the smallest and most beautiful things in the world that make life worthwhile. All the pageantry and the opulent masquerade, the interest in recognition or prestige divert and eclipse happiness. That's why the song talks about things as simple as an insect or flowers on a tree. Letting ourselves be impressed by its simple and changing beauty and sharing them with others is life.

    When I heard this music in the movie I bawled my eyes out because I immediately understood it was portraying the bittersweet realization that when someone (a loved one) dies they are free from suffering. I didn't think it was "alienating" or "infuriating". In fact that anger was portrayed in a humpty dumpty style where the army fires the arrows at the moon parade, so I still understood that perspective.

    The one and only time I wept openly in a theater, on a date early in a relationship no less. After the long and heavy journey this movie puts you through and the extent to which you’ve identified with the parents and the princess, the sense of finality and loss here would be enough to hit hard by itself. But the disarming, uncanny, dissonant, emotionally confusing context here pushes it over the edge. There’s something deeply wrong with it, and the music, with its clashing moods and connotations captures and augments that feeling. You kinda have no choice but to let the raw experience wash over you.

  • @DiloConHelio
    @DiloConHelio 8 лет назад +215

    I can't avoid to feel the general backlash for this scene as undeserved. The intention of the film is to dramatically flip the japanese tale with a child-related, femenine touch. While the main achievement of the original legend is shaping japanese culture, the story in Ghibli's Tale of Princess Kaguya instead delivers how similar is the end of childhood as the lose of a divine condition.
    Princess's initial happiness is not to last, as life holds a defined, small place in its world for her divine (pure or child-like, if you may) condition. She constantly rejects her place until she's defeated, for even the most notorious among adults longs her purity. Her ultimate rapture finally triggers her obliteration from the world, in the form of bliss and peace. A place unachievable for men, where the mind shines and the body is turned to a mere conduit. We may call it suicide, death, or even the "end of wonder"; for the essence of Kaguya doesn't belong to our flawed and shallow world.
    So she's forced to leave humanity one way or another, for her pureness may rest in the monochromatic ways of the moon: oblivion.

      Certainly not in agreement.
      Since we're speaking about purity, then I would actually say that Kaguya returning to the Moon is actually the re-awakening of her pure nature. Living here on Earth she was able to experience love as daughter. Once returning, she acknowledges her love extends to all the universe.

      I see it as she never wanted to stay in the present and kept on holding on to memories of the past and longed for a life that would never be able to happen it kept on paining her to the point where she had to forget everything to become “pure”. I’m pretty sure that they wanted to stay close to the Japanese legend as possible so that’s why the ending is the way it is.

    • @DiloConHelio
      @DiloConHelio 3 года назад +11

      I'm so glad my 4 year old comment sparked others to share their impressions about The Tale of Princess Kaguya. I've seen it many more times and I plan to keep doing so. I gathered more to analyse from it of course, and that's what has been fun about it! Even though it's a straight forward tale about a life being lived, there's so much room to interpretation and brainstorming. :)
      I could now add that the main source of tragedy in the story seems to be *distinctions.* Princess's world is progressively taken away because of her condition as royalty, as a woman, and her divinity. And that includes the spiritual entourage that claims her back to the moon, for they make no distinction for her whatsoever (perhaps a critique to the total dettachment from mundane affairs natural to philosophies and spirituality from the far east). It is a sad outcome, yet I suspect the story suggest where happiness lies in such conumdrum; and it may be childhood, but I think it's more about how careless about our own condition we are as children. We just are, and everything else just is, and our greatest experiences are from our interactions with no ulterior considerations.
      And in such logic, that moral ends up being cautionary rather than a straight "answer" to the sorrows the tale presents. For, how could we exactly find that happiness where sooner or later ours or others' inherent obsessions with distinctions will rule our lives? Is balance something we can even grasp with our human nature? I therefore think the film is a mature call to mindfulness about ourselves and our understanding of things by showing us that even a divine origin won't keep our child-within from withering away.
