      A family stumbles into the spirit world, the parents eat food they have no right to and get turned into pigs by their greed.
      The daughter goes to the bath house and the basement man tells her to beg for a job so that she'll have a place to stay and earn food. The old lady who owns the bathhouse gives her a job but steals her name so that she can't leave.
      She wishes a stink spirit that turns out to be a river spirit that got filled with garbage. It repays her with a medicine ball and leaves.
      She lets another spirit into the bathhouse that turns out to feed off greed, but wants to simply repay her kindness.
      Meanwhile, a dragon that has been attacked drops into the bathhouse. She tries to get help for it.
      The greed spirit has gone nuts and starts trying to eat people until she forced it to eat medicine and puke up corruption.
      She feeds the rest of the medicine to the river dragon. She runs into the bath owner's baby, and it's guarden, a huge bird with a lady face. The bath owner's witch twin sister (who snuck in) curses it into being a mouse.
      The girl has to take noh face and the baby mouse all the way to the sister's house to get the curses lifted.
      It turns out the dragon was a river spirit that remembers her from when she was a baby and almost drowned in his river. That's why he kept trying to help her in the spirit world.
      This makes the bath owner so happy she offers to free the parents if she can work out which pigs they are. The daughter sees the trick and says none of the pigs in front of her are the parents. This makes everyone happy and her parents are freed, unable to remember anything. The daughter is given her name back and runs through the tunnel to find her parent waiting for her. They drive away.

    Interesting fact: in the original, at the end of the film, the main character does not remember everything that happened to her in the spirit world. Because of what, the ending remains open, whether all this happened true or not;
    For American viewers, the ending was redone, saying that all this happened in reality.
    For some reason, the variant with a redone ending was more common.

  • @Elementroar
    @Elementroar 2 года назад +532

    I remember seeing Spirited Away, and I know it’s one part of many things, but immediately what struck me was Chihiro’s character design. Not conventionally pretty, what media would call ‘homely’ but really she was exactly what she was - a young teenage girl going through that awkward phase in life we’ve all been through. Her features are realistic and down to earth, and it’s so funny that she still stands out even now because every other female anime protagonist just seems generic next to Chihiro, who was deliberately designed to be an average girl!
    But it was perfect, because her character design grounded her as being ‘real’, and helped her stay contrasted against the fantastic elements and characters who actually have more of the usual anime style exaggerated features.

    Maintaining the essence of this movie such the background music or those Ghibli tiny details that are usually missed, but also, adding your lovely humor points as the car crash, the minecraft chest and the uka chaka baby is, and correct me if I'm wrong, a very difficult job.

      I think I can explain why Chihiro's parents just say something something and three of them leave the spirit world. That's because: 1) They're typical Asian parents, and Asian parents at that time (1990-2000s) just think simple that their child/children too playful and they're sure that their child/children will comeback in time.
      2) They've turn into pigs by the magic of Yubaba, they won't remember anything just like the original movie said.

    I remember how this movie TRAUMATIZED 2nd-3rd grade me.
    I went to this gymnastic class after school, and I was surrounded by middle and high schoolers.
    One day, it was movie night, and I was one of the only elementary grade kids who had shown up, and most of the kids that had shown up were about 13-16. The main leader let them argue over movies, and they finally concluded that Spirited Away would be cool. But, I was a child.
    A sheltered IPad kid, to be exact.
    With a one of the worst gag reflexes imaginable.
    As all of the teenagers I looked up to remembered this fact, they sighed and said they could pick something else.
    Not wanting to be the reason they couldn’t watch the cool movie they spent 5 minutes fighting over, I quickly said “Oh, it’s fine! My parents let me watch all sorts of things like that anyways, I don’t mind.”
    My parents, in fact, did not let me watch that type of stuff.
    But, somehow, through a miracle of luck,
    they believed me.
    So we watched it.
    And it was HORRIFYING (to 2nd grade me, at least). But I never said anything about it to anyone, and it started my obsession with character design, ghosts, symbolism, and anime, so at least that part worked out. (It’s also probably is the thing which gave me the guts to sit through a “FNaF 1 but in Minecraft” gameplay video* without getting freaked out, which ALSO kickstarted my FNaF obsession, so, y’know.) *it was just FNAF 1, but with the models remade for Minecraft, and given worse AI.

    I literally just watched this movie for the first time with my brothers. I can’t wait to see their reactions to this because if I have to suffer from the unwholesome crime against wholesomeness you committed by making this video, then they do too… well done. 👍
    Still, the movie alone is scary enough for a child if you ask them to imagine being put in a situation like that, so it’s not that wholesome to begin with until the end, but that’s usually how real life works anyway… it’s about as good as it is bad and vice versa.

    It's always interesting to see the action moments of a movie turned into your 'unbiased camera' framing.
    Within these still cameras you do a lot of really good composition within the frame, always very balanced.
    Putting these kind of constraints brings a lot of creativity but also keeps the projects within scope because you have to be so efficient with every scene.
