As usual,studio Ghibli succeeded to impress me once again. The artwork of this movie was just indescribable. The style changed with the mood of the character, and I really liked how they used different materials to draw this. The vibrant colours, the charcoal, the details really made me feel like I was part of their culture.
As for the characters, I was less impressed.I thought that they could definately give princess Kaguya( the protagonist) a more independent and stronger personality. She seemded pretty vulnerable and fragile,wich of course matches the typical personality of a princess, but I would love to see her as a more.....confident person i guess.
The story on the other hand is enchanting, it takes you away to a different culture in a different time. I like how they used little words, but could describe everything so perfectely and minimalisticlly that this movie was easy to follow, yet it contained pretty deep conversations .
And last but not least, the music was also very fitting, with the beautiful songs from traditional instruments and old songs sang by the children of the story.
I would definately recommend this movie, if you look for a more traditional and tranquil movie.
