Spirited Away
This is a really incredible film, I turned my nose up at this because im not a huge anime fan and didn’t really expect to like this style as much as I did. Honestly it had me hooked from the start, there is just something about this film that makes it stick on my mind even after watching it, the world building, the animation of the characters as well as the character arcs and personalities are so interesting. The animation is really something else especially for 2001, the style and flow of it all is incredible. The score is really hooking and one of the best ive heard in a animated film or film in general. Sen finding her courage and growing through it is really great and I love the message of never forget who you are and conquering your fears, as sen does throughout. I really incredible film. I will be watching more Gibili films soon!
