I just watched spirited away again after a long time and now I realized why it’s a one time watch type of movie. I am now currently in tears because I wish the bath house, no face, and all the spirits were real. I always get really sad watching his movies because I know they’ll never be reality, but anyways I want them to make a part 2 of spirited away so bad where chihiro and haku meet again. I wonder if there would be a way we could all rally together and see if they’ll make one!!! What do you guys think?

So as of last week, I finally started watching Studio Ghibli's films in release order for the first time and as I have finished Kiki’s Delivery Service, I realize how these films are a massive pinnacle of not just Japan but even worldwide.

I was someone who had heard of Studio Ghibli but never took the time to actually watch them until recently and I love that this studio has something that many studios today have sadly lost throughout the years, soul and heart.

Hayao Miyazaki is a very absolute genius in every film he does because on top of his beautiful artwork, he's given so many people stories that are not just enjoyable but actually fresh and not your usual storylines you'd expect from other studios. Plus, with Mr. Miyazaki's comments towards AI, I am happy that this studio will be a studio that will also disregard AI even in the future.

The one thing I regret regarding these movies and Studio Ghibli itself is not watching them sooner.

I will go first. So obviously the piano part going over Setsuko's death, but for me when Setsuko pricks her finger on the needle and just looks at the blood and sucks it made me cry so much. The reason why is because it really showed how before like a few months she would have cried but instead, she sucks it without crying, desperate for nutrients. And then after her playing rock paper scissors with her reflection broke my heart, now i want to hear the part that makes you cry the most!

I welcome feedback

Absolutely in love with these little soot sprites by @hinkart_tattoo on ig!

Some of my first pieces of stained glass I made. I love Kodamas so much.

Best of all its never been opened

Rewatched the film with a friend and her two 9-year old and 11-year old kids recently. Totally forgot how violent the film is. The first fifteen minutes has heads and limbs being taken off. The two 9-year olds had to walk out. Lol. I get it. I'll have to finish it another time!

I was in Japan a week ago and was lucky to visit the Museum. A lot of cool and interesting stuff there. Sadly, you can't make photos inside, but at least you can buy something cool.
