When my grandma was in the hospital. This was playing on tv. It was on a station called turner classic movies. And i was so enthralled. I didn't finish watching pompoko that day but when I got home I was able to watch spirited away on the same station. It did a lot for me. And kept me from being too sad.

One of my top favorite Ghibli movies. Both playful and heart-wrenching. These endearing characters believe in their mission so much, and when they realize and accept that they're fighting a losing battle, it's devastating. Also a really creative reflection on old Japan vs. new Japan. My favorite character is Kincho VI, who despite first showing up halfway through, satisfyingly becomes one of the main characters, driving the plot. The yokai parade scene is breathtaking, and the scene where they turn their home back the way it used to be makes me cry. 10/10

日本の風習や伝統、文化、民俗学などが完璧に入っているので、外国の人はどう感じるでしょう? 私はこの映画を観て、日本は歴史が深く本当にユニークで面白い国だと再発見します。 わたしはこどものころ楽しい映画だと思っていましたが、大人になった今、狸たちへの申し訳なさと愛しさと切なさと悲しみと、作品に対する感動で涙が止まらないのです。
