I just saw this last night :D
Not exactly the greatest, but still a nice storyline to it.

The only thing that I didnt get was why was No Face chasing after Sen (cant remember her proper name) and then when he caught up to her, he was really timid and placid again....

Like other Studio Ghibli's works, this is a masterpiece, for sure!
Beautiful, simple and touching, Spirited Away can be considered, in our days, the sign that points to the human kindness and compassion, values although less remembered, still fundamentals to the world.

But I thought this was by no means one of the best productions of Miyazaki. It could have been more lucid in the storyline

Probably eating the frog turn him more... extroverted... After expeling it, he became shy again, I think

This is one of the very few anime that i can watch dubbed. mostly because Disney a very good job with that. the story is really good. the music is really moving and the animation is excellent as you might expect. the story starts out a little bit slow but it isn't a negative. even among the many Miyazaki titles i like, this one is probably at the very top.

I remember being obsessed about this movie. After almost a year of watching anime subbed, I can understand more about the real story of this movie.

Listen to the guy who voiced Haku! His voice lowered a couple of degrees now voicing other characters in other anime! "cough" Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle "cough"

I wanna know what happens after they hit their house. Since seeing from the last part, they have been there for a long time.
Theyre going to be like "Where is the moving van?"

"The moving whaaaaaaaaaa?"

yeah the dub is very good this along with howls moving castle is one of the few anime i'll watched dubed

although i liked the ending of the sub better they added a few lines at the end with the dub.

I can see why some don't think it's the best. The storyline could've used a little more...um..depth? Don't know the right word I'm looking for. But, I love it, however my opinion may be biased as I listened to the soundtrack constantly before I even saw the movie. So, I had already determined I would like it.

The one thing I don't get is why the dad is driving so fast up the hill. What was that all about?

I first saw Spirited Away 4-5 years ago...it wasn't my first anime, but it definitely helped me get into more anime movies.

Since then I've watched this movie countless times.. Most likely somewhere between 50-100 times. I never get bored honestly.. I love it so much. My best friend loves this movie just as much, and it's become a tradition to watch Spirited Away everytime she comes over..

I consider it a masterpiece. Among Miyazaki's movies, Princess Mononoke is the second best for me. Spirited Away is so simple yet so intricate. The plot may not be complex, but things don't have to be complex to be beautiful or have depth.

It's an original work... it's not based on anything !!
It just comes from the great creative minds of The Studio Ghibli staff !!

I liked it way more then I did from my initial watch almost 8 or so years ago, I still think Princess Mononoke is the best Ghibli film but this one is pretty great and I can see why it's so beloved.

Hi There I'm Manga Etc...
just a little back story I hope you don’t mind. I'm a small Youtuber my content is all about anime/manga I’ve been running this channel for almost 2 years now. I'm very proud of what I've achieved during my time but I'm always looking for something new I can bring to the table.

So I figured I’d give cinema sins style videos a try. (I feel that i must also note i DO NOT plan on stealing Cinema Sins "thunder" as i plan to ONLY do ANIME movies. This is something i haven't seen Cinema Sins or anybody else do)

This is my very first one and depending on how its received I may continue doing these. That's why I’d appreciate it (GREATLY) if you gave this a watch!

Thanks for your time, take care have a nice day!

I watched it and I loved the fact that it was so unique! I definitely didn't expect it to be the way it was before watching since I just watched it right away instead of watching the trailer or anything related to it for that matter. It's just that the things that happened were just unexpected for me and so I liked it.
