Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi
On the way to their new home, 10-year-old Chihiro Ogino's family stumbles upon a deserted theme park. Intrigued, the family investigates the park, though unbeknownst to them, it is secretly inhabited by spirits who sleep by day and appear at night. When Chihiro's mother and father eat food from a restaurant in the street, angry spirits turn them into pigs. Furthermore, a wide sea has appeared between the spirit world and the human one, trapping Chihiro, the sole human, in a land of spirits. Luckily for her though, a mysterious boy named Haku appears, claiming to know her from the past. Under his instructions, Chihiro secures a job in the bathhouse where Haku works. With only her courage and some new found friends to aid her, Chihiro embarks on a journey to turn her parents back to their original forms and return home.

It almost feels unnecessary for me to review this movie. Everybody knows about it. Everybody (who knows what they’re talking about) knows it’s a masterpiece. Is there really anything else I can add to the discussion surrounding this movie? No, but I still wanna talk about it anyway because I love th…
Read full review on AniList →Moving away can be a tough situation, especially when you’re still a child. Your parents probably have a good reason to relocate… Changes in the economy, lucrative opportunities at work, declining property values and rising crime rates… But how is that supposed to matter to you when you’re being upr…
Read full review on AniList →I'll never forget October 28, 2018, for two reasons. The first is that it was my 20th birthday. The second is that it's the day I went to see a movie. It was a movie I already owned on Blu-ray and had seen several times, but that couldn't dull my enthusiasm. The movie in question was, of course, Hay…
Read full review on AniList →_Spoilers for the film. TL:DR, go see it if you somehow haven't already. It's great. _ As previously mentioned, I never grew up with Studio Ghibli films, so my experience with Miyazaki animes are not based in any childhood nostalgia, and instead come from more recent viewings of _My Neighbor Totoro…
Read full review on AniList →The very facet of childhood can be boiled down to the very definition of mysterious wonder and awe-inspiring imagination. We’ve all had those moments where we would go off into our little world of childlike imagination and try to experience an entirely new reality different from our own. Films have…
Read full review on AniList →A infância é uma das fases mais importantes de uma pessoa, de lá irá começar fases de transições, mudanças, e seja elas fáceis de lidar ou não, é necessário se impor a elas e ter agência pra não estagnar em um ponto, sendo só mais uma pessoa a deriva de tudo sem nenhuma identidade. Curiosamente eu v…
Read full review on AniList →# ___Heads up: this review is not spoiler-free___ This review maybe will be somewhat different than what you usually see in Anilist, as it is focused mostly on explaining the underlying meaning and messages of the film – but my personal opinion is still included. Just to be clear – I think very h…
Read full review on AniList →La Citta Incantata è un film che non muore mai, un cult senza tempo, un capolavoro che andrebbe visto anche solo per l’importanza culturale che ha ottenuto negli anni. Innanzitutto è stato l’unico film d’animazione giapponese ad aver mai vinto un premio Oscar, il lungometraggio ha anche parte dei me…

Unless you click on the parts hidden with a spoiler warning, ofc.__ ___ I think it's been a while since I watched a movie which feels so magical. I think it was when Haku suddenly appeared when the night cane, when Chihiro ran through the streets only to find out that…

Read full review on AniList →Despite watching anime for quite a long time now, I still hadn't seen arguably the most iconic anime movie of all time. Due to me having in possession the first volumes of Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä from when I was kid, I was a little familiar with Miyazaki's works. His artstyle and technics absolutel…
Read full review on AniList →Spirited Away is a movie by Hayao Miyazaki, and one of the first anime I approached with Fullmetal Alchemist. Spirited Away stroke me immediately by the vastness, and capability of the author in building a world that widened my imagination. It is beautiful how the Shintoist religion aspect of the Ja…
Read full review on AniList →I have watched it three times. First as a kid, then in high school and now. Unfortunately it did peak for me with a less developed brain. It is a very good movie, but contrasted with other Ghibli and Miyazaki you long for it to be better. The world is beautiful, expressed with insane quality of ani…
