Ghibli movies are so amazing. It makes me happy they do Ghibli fest in theaters every year because I will continue to rewatch them forever
There every year??? Im so glad I know that now
@Plainjane1398 yup imagine the opening of any famous blockbuster like lotr or star wars.
The fans are amazing and atleast where I live every year its a trip. And a good kind.
@@mr.voidroy6869 I went to a few of them this year. But I wonder if they'll start doing them every year in the city I live in.
@@mr.voidroy6869These movies are overrated though
@@fotrj nobody cares. We like them.
Read the room
I think we are missing this in live action movie and tv shows today. I love the quietness. Everything needs to breath
I love the quiet moments in Martin McDonagh movies like The Guard and In Bruges. And you're right we're need more of these moments in action flicks nowadays, which arguably is where they're most needed.
Really challenging to incorporate without losing the audience.
Dune is good i guess. Dennis is a master at his work
@@dharmapunk777 eh, I think it's more a case of directors thinking they need action or dialogue to keep a viewer's undivided attention. Most people don't just walk out of movies that they paid to see. Once you have someone hooked, you can afford some quiet moments - I would argue that you need them. People can only focus on something for so long before they need a breather.
The Marvel effect
I always felt like these scenes made the characters more real. Most people’s lives have dull moments now and then, seeing those characters have a similar experience made me feel closer to them
I don't think you can have a dull moment when this Lady architect is around😁 (wink wink)

Actually, that is one of those key things that is really special about Ghibli stories. They mix this realistic feel into their fantastical events by having incredibly slow, quiet moments of characters doing regular things, that still have this incredibly loving and gentle animation to them. Its like showing the beauty and significance of things we can literally just go and do every day in real life, Ghibli movies give us magical stories AND they romanticise harmless parts of life.
Because it is animated, they give these moments a bit of magic.
Who elses mouth was watering when the characters cook 🤤
@raettchen1988 ahh that too. I was in a financially difficult situation recently alone moving out of a rental house, and a bit of a comfort activity I'd do was watch Ghibli movies and create simple and tasty broths and veggies like they do for my cheap meals, really trying to take in the process and imagine it animated while I prep. Ghibli food isn't even expensive or fancy, just really thoughtfully cooked market ingredients really.
ALSO!! How she sits on the train is very important. She doesn't sit on her knees looking out the window, like children usually do in Japan. She sits down facing inwards which symbolizes her growing up.
That’s such a great observation
@@averageday you can thank my professor for pointing it out lol
I also get a business sense from it. She's not on this trip for fun, but to save Haku. Her mindset has shifted from the petulant child she was in the car.
Yeah the contrast of how they showcase how beautiful the view outside the train, but she's trap in her world. Consumed by her thoughts.
It represents the inside of her mind protecting her ego from what's really happening to her body, she's been sold into the sec trade, what's outside the window is the real world
Hayao Miyazaki named these empty scenes as "Ma" , this are intentionally added. And these are one of the most beautiful parts
to add on to OP comment, "Ma" basically means a space, a pause or a gap.
She made a video about your comment. Cheers.
Ma is an important element in all things, whether it be meditation, art, music, cinema, gardening… It doesn’t matter in what context, one must always leave space, or a pause, or silence, or whatever synonym you can come up with. Ma is the most poignant moment/place in all things.
@leumas75 yes right before the bass drop... ma
That’s what the Japanese character in the title of the video reads - ma
The moment where she sobs with Haku is similar too. A moment to breathe and grieve for her struggle. Really important.
That’s what I was thinking. When “scenes to process what’s happening” comes to mind. I think of her breaking down while eating. She had to put up a strong face the whole time but she’s only a kid, so that’s the moment where she finally breathes and openly feels everything she’s been repressing the whole time to survive.
I do really love a story that can just have a character's emotions compliment the weight of the event. No big swoon of music or extreme acting needed, as much as they are great in some contexts, just sobbing, that conveys more than itself through the surrounding context rather than just being in itself the entire focus.
@@lilpetz500Another one that gets to me every time is the little run in place when Chihiro is watching her parents go explore the tunnel at the beginning. It's not dramatic. It's not heroic. It's not terribly foreboding. It's just a kid, who gets stuck in place for a moment while processing which of her two fears is the lesser: stepping into something scary, or staying behind alone. Her parents don't see either option as scary or dangerous, and Ghibli doesn't present it as either completely innocuous or foreboding, even though we the audience _know_ it's going to be a fantastical story. Instead you just get a kid, in a kid's world, making a kid's choice, as a kid.
The Boy and the Heron takes this to a whole new level. The silence almost becomes a character in it's own right. I don't think I've ever seen a movie where more emotion is drawn out of a lack of sound, aside from the natural sound of footsteps on wood floors, than this film.
That's one of my favorite scenes too! Coincidentally, I was just talking about this concept with a friend the other day, the emptiness of these moments in Ghibli movies, and this scene in particular. It reminds myself to nurture these in my own life. Leave the business to the side for a moment, breathe, and appreciate the journey.
It's how they make their worlds feel so huge and rich with interest. They don't rush you through showing and explaining everything they can. The backgrounds alone in the movies even without the characters overlaid look so lived in, and like we're seeing just one moment of a shifting landscape that so many stories would happen inside of that we will never see. And silence and mundanity to calmly progress the main story allows us to take them in without missing too much or becoming overwhelmed.
This scene is so beautiful and calming. I like how the water is so still and stretches out to the horizon. I love that her friends accompany her to lend their support, realizing they all are seeking a haven.
AN aname series I like, that has that same gentle questing is “ Mushishi “ .
It is entranced by nature and so different from the usual load frantic series.
The term is "Ma." In Japanese aesthetics and cultural philosophy, "Ma" can be translated as "negative space" or "the space between." It's a concept that emphasizes the importance of the empty space between objects or elements in a composition, be it in art, architecture, or other aspects of design.
"Ma" suggests that this empty space is not just a void but holds significance in itself. It creates a pause, a moment of reflection, and allows for the perception of the relationships and elements surrounding it. This concept is fundamental to various Japanese art forms, such as traditional tea ceremonies, ikebana (flower arranging), and even in architectural design. The intentional use of "Ma" contributes to a sense of harmony, balance, and a heightened awareness of the elements present in the space.
The architecture of Gibli movies deserves some attention. The way Miyazaki combines nostalgia and the fantastic to achieve story setting is incomparable. Sure, Hayao himself is a bit of a prick(ly) guy. But that is undeniable.
Even as a child I’d always rewind this scene. Didn’t really know why but it really captivated me.❤
Meaningful silence is better than meaningless words
Ghibli movies have a very particular pace that puts you in the present moment of the scene, like a very short but needed meditation into the universe. It puts you "here", in the moment that you're witnessing. It gives you a short experience of what would it be, to be, in this universe. And I love it.
I loved getting lost in Studio Ghibi films when I was a kid. I'm interested to see The Boy and Heron, it looks very promising.
Did you like it?
Love your analysis on cinematic architecture
Spirited Away is a top 5 movie for me. Whenever I think of it, this very scene is what always plays in my head. Its just the most visually memorable scene.
I like everything about this short.
The studio and the content creator.
I couldn't agree more. One of the most beautiful scenes in the movie
Thank you for talking about this movie. It is so good with the story telling, the voice-acting and the whole visual imagery and the background score. It made me cry ❤❤
This is the exact reason why i love ghibli movies. Stories take time to understand and emotions take time to evolve, ghibli understands this and gives you space to do so. It makes watching ghibli movies so comfortable
One of the many reasons that I love Ghibli movies. So many of them have made me cry.
You are my favorite new discovery on RUclips so far this year.❤
When this was shown in theaters in the US, I saw it alone during a low time That scene specifically and the beauty of its visuals lifted me up and gave me back the brighter mindset to experience the joy of the climax of the film. ❤️
This one clip has really endeared me to your channel, because that scene you refer to is also my favourite. The feelings I get from it has remained with me since the first time I watched it as a child.
i love the part where u talk about architecture
That's one of the reasons I love studio Ghibli movies so much, they let you breathe within all the without taking away from it
Your style of story telling is immense. I could literally sit and listen to you all day!
I love that part, because its the moment that completely declaws no-face. He was acting out, and she just says to sit there and behave - ghibli films are always full of that kind of patience. Bad guys are usually not ever just bad guys, cause they’ve got their own story and stuff they’re dealing with. Thats a good piece of storytelling DNA to have!
The art style and animation will always take my breath away. One of my top 3 movies
Those calming scenes are some of my favorite moments. For this reason here.
The music in this scene is amazing... the whole movie actually.
It's mood building, a quiet moment to really sink into the character's mindset without distractions, I love it. Studio Ghibli are just amazing, they embody everything good about Japanese culture and cinematography.
You said all the things that I love , and that's why I just love Ghibli studios animation and storytelling and everything
Studio Ghibli pulls at my soul every time I am in amazement how perfect they are.
It’s a beautiful concept of silence they have in Japan - Ma. It’s about the spaces between sounds, the quiet times in music, talk, and stories. Japanese people really like this idea and use it in their lifestyle, keeping things simple and meaningful. In a busy world, it brings peace and importance.
my kids introduced me to Ghibli. this presenter is so beautiful. her voice is soothing.
The scene where the riverboat comes into dock There's more beautiful than anything I've ever seen in a movie. It's not just the the visuals and the color but it's all together sound color music. Just wonderful.
The slowdown connect you with the character because it represent real life in real time
She just summoned the whole fandom here🔥
Fascinating - whenever i watch this scene i'm just like "train!!!" , it never occurred to me to think back over what happened. In real life whenever i'm on a train i'm also thinking about the train so i guess it makes sense, i figured she was being soothed by the train's soothing rhythms as opposed to reliving all the stuff. Different perspectives.
Spirited Away is my favourite Ghibli movie.
I love Studio Ghibli movies. The efforts of creators are not just seen but also felt. The story has its own charm.
I just can't have enough of it.
Ghibli movies has this magical effect on me, just peaceful in that train ride
It’s one of the most beautiful scenes. I think about it often
This movie saved me from horrible times, when I was on detox I used to have terrifying nightmares so I always put on this movie on my phone and it helped me sleep every time.
I’m looking forward to their next project which should be coming out very soon.
That is very true. Those peaceful moments felt very real.
Agreed.
This scene on the train is brilliant in its simplicity.
Just came across your channel and I am grateful and now a fan of these RUclips shorts. You described my most favorite part of the movie so well. You have made the internet fun for me with all of your subjects which I have found so exciting and fascinating.
I love your videos, i could listen to you talk all day 😊
I introduced my 6 year old daughter to Ghibli movies 2 years ago. She just loves the stories, and I can clearly see that it helps her too grow emotional maturity and empathy. Ghibli Studios is the best .
The color grading in that scene guides you through the moment. From that empty shock, to reflection, to building up courage, to entering back into the struggle
That train scene reminded me of a personal memory of riding in an old train in the country side of Korea during the winter. Part of the floors had rotted away and I sat in cold silence watching the tracks pass under the floors. Good memories.
Ghibli is great with moments like this.
Like little moments that kind of pause between major plot points.
In Howls Moving Castle Sophie sits by the lake for a tea break.
In Spirit Away there's a train ride.
Porco Russo, we watch the plane with obnoxious red paint fly through the clouds...
Nice analysis of Studio Ghibli films’ quiet moments
My daughter (13 years old) loves these movies. I must admit that I'm turning into the old outta touch guy who doesn't understand it, but I am so happy to see how much see gets out of watching (and rewatching) Studio Ghibli.
ghibli movies, especially spirited away, have effected me since i first saw them as a little kid, there really is nothing else like them. they capture emotion and beauty in such special ways
I enjoy listening to your voice. You should be a story teller 😊
Ghibli movies are magic in visual form
Really glad I stumbled on these shorts, the presenter is very articulate and engaging. Very informative
I. Just absolutely love everything you get to see of this girl and great architect
So true about giving the veiwer time to process/reflect and basically decompress from everyrhing you just witnessed, especially for first time watchers.
Love ghibili films for this and so many more of their trademark tricks of the screen ❤
Studio Ghibli is amazing. Movies, their music! Love all of it.
The animation is so beautiful in their movies.
Rural places. In Princess Mononoki. And Nausicaa. And Castle In The Sky.
The vintage urban places and decor in Howl' Moving Castle . And in The Wind Rises. And From Up on Poppy Hill . Even the small rural town in When Marnie Was There.
It all fosters a restfulness. A nostalgia. A composure.
Your amazing. Space to Breathe.
Life is like this.
Give yourself some space to breathe.
this scene is dedicated in Virtual reality in Meta horizon worlds. its really good
Good point about space, I always felt like "the world" was another character in each scene in Ghibli movies. The world the characters inhabit feels different to other animations where it feels like where the character are is just background so when there's space to notice it it seems to come alive more. Probably why I love Porco Rosso; there's a lot of beautiful space without dialogue.
That movie is pure magic!
The beautiful calm of that scene. My child LOVED this movie when we was three. Even she stopped bouncing around and playing to watch the calm beauty of that scene and many others. The Wind Rises is another one packed with the captivating quiet.
Spirited Away is my favorite studio ghibli movie! I just- I love it!
It is the silence in life, the introspection, the dull and mediocre, that yields reverence for reality.
Yes! I found that scene to have the prettiest illustrations too. It makes me feel so at peace.
I’m so glad to see this feeling I’ve always had put to words. I describe the train scene from Spirited Away as the main driver to dive into Ghibli films for anyone conflicted! The melancholic tone and heart wrenching music score create one of the best scenes in cinema for me! Thanks you as always for the insight!
It is a beautiful scene but much copied in Japanese shows, they love piano music with slow visuals of nature.
One of the best of animation ever.
Omg you are so right, very comforting reflective moments. Maybe that’s why I keep coming back to them.
Spirited Away is so awesome keep up the amazing animes Ghibli❤
My favourite scene in the film.
empty moments- but full of life & humanity. its not like an action movie where things are go go go. the pauses of the movie where the silence seems overwhelming, we all have experienced times like that in our own lives!
Spirited away is one of my all time favorite movies
Ghibli studio movies are phenomenal and nostalgic! The best animation ever!
Is not anyone going to say how gorgeous this lady here looks and her crisp voice is cherry on top, a person you can just keep listening to on and on for the rest of your life , wish she stays healthy and safe . Peace
shes pretty (her voice is not lol) but have some self respect... slobbering over some random on YT? ur shaming ur ppl.
Spirited Away is an amazing movie!
I love how they just sit there and they let the scene sink. First time i saw this, somehow i teared up. It brought up a gidden memory i. Me that the nostalgia flowed in. We all now how nostalgia can feel painful and nice at the same time
Studio Ghibli has the most serene illustrations I have ever n I mean ever laid eyes on.. period.
I pretty much watched this every day when i was 7-13. Its my favorite
This scene always makes me cry
I agree with you 100 percent. I absolutely love Ghibli films. They are works of art.
thank you for including When Marnie Was There as an example of this. the film means a lot to me ❤
This. Its her silent determination and loyalty thats so powerful. Her staring out the window for HOURS as to not miss that crucial stop. Seeing this entire alternative unforseen parallel universe thats always been going on but no human has seen. It makes you think. Its chilling and beautiful ❤
imagine if some youtubers would understand the power of BREATHING... instead of cutting every single pause, spaces, silences, in their contents... Thanx a lot Dami for your impeccable contents ❣️❣️❣️
Apart from all the hidden meanings and symbolizations with this particular scene, for me it was the quietness, the subdue moments, and the breathtaking scenery of trains crossing above waters and passing empty stations that creates a sense of calmness and soothing feelings
I fully agree with your assessment of those empty spaces that allow time for reflection on the part of the character and the audience. BTW, The Boy and the Heron is a really great film as well.😊❤
Ghibli movies made sitting on a train or bus or something seem so magical. Like in whisper of the heart where the cat is on the bus with her and starts her whole adventure. These movies are fantastic at taking a normal part of life and making it feel like the start of a fairy is just around the corner.
The peaceful moments are great for pacing and a sense of the world. Helps that there is always a wonderful score playing setting the mood.
My teacher showed us this in 10th grade. My classmates really didn’t like it but i think it grew on them and was actually a really good lesson at the end of the semester.
I love the way her mind works
And the music during that moment... so beautiful
I just watched this for the first time the other day. It was really really good i understand the hype
I love Spirited Away. I couldn't agree more with your statements
Even as a kid, I always loved the quiet scenes. Ghibli films were the ones who did it the most, but there were other animated movies out there where they slowed down and played their beautiful music.
I always remember the quiet scene in Kiki's delivery service.
I wish that kids animated movies would go back to doing that. They go too fast and give you no time to think or let the characters think.
