Mixed feelings for the first hour. Slow but gorgeous animation. I love yokai anime and any themes about parallel worlds like "The Never Ending Story" for example.

I felt disgusting and annoyed by them just like Momo was. But just like...

The film presents a future world where technological progress has not only failed to solve humanity's problems but has also created new, even more complex challenges. The visual aspect of the film is stunning in its intricacy and attention to detail. Each frame...

Miyazaki doesn't create films in this manner. However, understanding that Miyazaki doesn't work from a predetermined plot, but rather draws individual scenes from his impressions to capture moments,...
