    I like that many of Miyazaki's movies have environmental themes. It's powerful when Chihiro sees that the stink spirit turns out to be a river spirit severely hurt by pollution. In a behind-the-scenes video I saw, Miyazaki said that the river/stink spirit was based on his own experiences cleaning a river when he was younger. He was part of a team that pulled tons of trash (including a bicycle) from the river.

      It's a pretty good visual metaphor for the Shinto concept of Misogi, or purification. In Shinto, the idea is that people accumulate spiritual impurities in various ways that bog you down and can make you miserable and unhealthy, and one needs to regularly purify oneself to stay healthy and happy. And much like how the River Spirit just got polluted by the junk in his river but not really through any fault of his own, it's similar to how humans would accumulate impurities: it's not because of sin or bad deeds or whatever, it just kinda happens naturally and has to be dealt with.

    I still love the ending line between Chihiro and her dad. In the Japanese cut, there is no final dialogue between them, but i love when the dad asks her if she'll be okay and responds, "I think I can handle it." Makes me smile every time. She went through so much for a little girl and came out stronger than ever, and she carries her friends with her in memory and her hair tie. Beautiful ending.

    At 9:50, the reason why Haku is mad/flabbergasted is because in Japanese mythology that bridge is only meant for the spirits, no humans are allowed to cross it, so seing a human on it was a whole "WHO TF DOES SHE THINK SHE IS?" followed by "oh gods, if other spirits see her she'll be eaten alive as punishment! RUN RUN RUN" moment.

    The sludge monster that eventually turned into a dragon was a River Spirit that, in the mortal world, had his river clogged full garbage, thus his form in the spirit world reflected this state
    Also it's hilarious that you call the paper things chasing Haku around demonic because they're actually the complete opposite, they're called Shikigami and they're basically little servant spirits to shamanic people called Onmyōji

    I don't think it's ever explicitly explained, but I think the deal with No Face is that he is kinda a blank slate who just sort of projects the vibes that he's around. So when he's in the Bathhouse surrounded by opulence and greed and such he becomes a huge gluttonous monster, but when he's in Zenibas quaint little cottage surrounded by nature and simplicity he's docile and calm.

    I just looked it up, Haku voice actor Jason Marsden has A LOT of side character rolls. Hundreds of voices, you have heard him in many cartoons over the years. He was also MAX in a Goofy Movie and seemingly all other appearances of Max, and more recently, a lot of voices in SKYRIM.
    COURIER FROM SKYRIM. "I've been looking for you. Got something I'm supposed to deliver - your hands only." Several other side characters from Skyrim too. It was absolutely the Skyrim courier voice that was familiar to me.

    I'm a basic b**ch when it comes to Studio Ghibli. Howls Moving Castle, Nausicaa, Princess Mononoke, and Porco Rosso are my favorites. Nausicaa is older but still breathtaking and other worldlly in both story and animation. Made in 84' it's post-apocalyptic and about a spunky princess trying to save her people from evil toxic jungles and political violence. Poco Rosso is totally underrated (also about a man cursed as a pig) but lives his life out as a suave and charismatic fighter pilot during war time (gives off a world War 2 vibe) I feel like Princess Mononoke and Howls Moving Castle are so popular they don't need explanation ❤ There are so many movies to choose from but I humbly suggest any of these as a decent starting place.😊

      You forgot to mention the works of the other master in Studio Ghibli, Isao Takahata. 🙂 There are quite a few masterpieces by him. His works are more on the realistic, sometimes slice-of-life side. e.g. Only Yesterday, My Neighbours: The Yamadas. The more well-known are Princess Kaguya and The Grave of the Fireflies.
      The latter is a must-see, if only once. Most people can't stomach a second time. Not because it's bad; it's a great film. But it's as hard-hitting as they come.

      @bastiangugu4083 Grave of the Fireflies was actually the first one I had ever seen.

I wasn't wrong, and I was utterly traumatized, and like you said, I only watched it once. Don't get me wrong, it is one of the most moving pieces of cinema out there, but I don't think my soul can take a second viewing.

    I love that you guys started watching Studio Ghibli movies. Personally, I love Howl's Moving Castle and The Cat Returns.
    Lin (voiced by Susan Egan in the English dub--aka the voice of Rose Quartz in Steven Universe and Meg in Disney's Hercules) is said to be a weasel spirit. That's why she was so easily bribed by roasted newt. I believe someone else mentioned about the newt being an ingredient in potions in another comment here.
    Names hold power--or for Yubaba, it binds you to her like a contract (similar to the Fae in Western mythology, which is why you don't just give them your name). Chihiro's name in Japanese translates to "a thousand fathoms". When Yubaba "edited" her name and changed it, she became Sen--"a thousand". Yubaba basically turned her into a numbered worker until Haku reminded her of her real name with the note from her friends.
    BTW, you guys have that video of playing Resident Evil?

It was worth the 4 hour trip. I recommend Laputa (Castle in the Sky), Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and Princess Mononoke.

    On the Kit-Kat topic: it's so similar that it's now an incredibly popular, nearly traditional gift to give to kids and teens before a big test or exam, a bag of Kit-Kats. A bag full of luck for them. They even have tons of custom flavors that you can pretty much only get in Japan; it's crazy but awesome. And anyone can set up _Hokora_ in their garden, to invite helpful little spirits around your home (that's what the tiny shrine-spirit houses are called).

    Last year my family took a trip to Colorado and we drove through the town of Black Hawk on our way from Rocky Mountain Park back to our hotel hours away. We drove through Black Hawk at like 8pm on a weeknight and it was eerie to see businesses lit up and not a soul in sight. We saw no people or animals at all. You could see inside the casinos, machines and tvs all on and no one inside. I later thought of this movie to explain the feeling of 'if you stop in this town you'll never leave'. I'm sure it's a nice place but that night I was on such an edge until we left that place.

    You’re guys commentary is exactly why I love not only this channel but you guys as well. I watched Spirited away a few years ago during my junior year of high school, and my thought process was the exact same as yours😂 From chihiro braving down the stairs case to her and haku nearly dying from getting impacted by water, the thought process and dark humor was there😂 I didn’t had a lot of people liking my dark humor and commentary about this film so seeing you guys having that same reaction was both refreshing and reassuring at the same time as it reminded me that I’m not alone in this 😂😊. I honestly can’t wait to see what else you guys will be watching in the future😊. Stay safe and Happy Holidays!😊
    PS: if my writing seems to be all over the place or grammatically incorrect, then I would like to say that I am watching this video at 4 am in the morning so…. Blame the brain fog😂

    Honestly, I'd like to see Chihiro reunite with Haku/Kohaku as an adult. Like, maybe she helps create a new river or waterway or something to bring him back to the physical world.
    Both the dub and sub kinda hint at a romance between the two, but Chihiro is obviously too young in the movie for that.

    9:38 That would be sick! To go off that too, and absolutely no pressure, I co-own a small soap making business and we make bath bombs (among a whole bunch of other things). We could potentially get that going if that's something ya'll would be interested in. No hard feelings either way, love the channel and the content, just thought I'd throw that out there.
    I'd have to say that my favorite Miyazaki movie would be Howl's Moving Castle. Haven't seen all of them, but I also adore Princess Mononoke, Kiki's Delivery Service, and Ponyo.

    You guys should check out the cobbler and the thief. It was 100% hand-drawn by by the writer frame by frame and at one point there's like a 5-minute scene of thousands of heavily armored knights marching and he didn't repeat anything. He hand Drew every single second of it and he died before it was finished. But it's an interesting little story.

    Even just listening to one summer day in the beginning makes me want to cry. This movie is beautiful and so bittersweet.
    Whenever a piece of media ends like that I just think they’re so much stronger than me I don’t know I would be able to leave a fantasy world that easily.
    And my favorite movie even though I love this one, is Ponyo. If you guys can in the future yiu should watch it (all the other ghibli movies are amazing as well though )

  • @nicolev990
    @nicolev990 День назад

    Castle in the Sky is a classic that y’all should watch. It’s the first studio Ghibli movie (there are a few Miyazaki made before like Nausicaa, but Castle in the Sky marks the founding of the studio). I don’t see a lot of people recommending it, but it was one of my favorites as a kid. It’s funny that now, as a one piece fan, I can find a lot of parallels and I wouldn’t be surprised if Oda drew inspiration from it.

    For your next Ghibli + Miyazaki film I'd definitely recommend Nausicaa, it was the first standalone film he directed and he wrote a manga as well. It's both incredibly fantastical and has so much of the Hayao Miyazaki message and spirit that is in the later films and inspired so many people in animation. Holds up after 40 years as well, which is crazy.
