My first commentary on an anime movie! Very exciting. I'm a big fan of Studio Ghibli, so there will probably be a few commentaries on their movies. Spirited Away is a great one to start with.
This has probably the most diverse characters out there. The imagination that was put into this movie is extraordinary. You really grow to love the characters, and my personal favorite is No Face, but I'm always a big fan of the characters that never/hardly speak. Haha. Besides this, the developement of Chihiro's character during the course of the movie is very satisfying! She transforms from a complaining and spoiled girl into a brave young woman.
The drawbacks are few, but they are there. First of all, it's hard to believe that Zeneba would be dressed EXACTLY the same as her twin, especially if they're exact opposites. With everything else, I just have to keep in mind that this world is a spirit realm, where heads without bodies can still live, and dragons can fly without wings. Heh.
I would have to give this movie a 5/5. It's great to watch if you just want to relax, and also has tons of exceptional characters and environments!
