But it doesn’t show any connection to Chihiro’s name. The house on an island scene is homage to an 80’s anime film “A Night of Galaxy Train”.

I watched it again and soon got over it, forgetting about the movie again. Now I'm 14 and I've watched Sprinted Away many times and each time I love it more and more.

It’s basically saying all the characters that they were serving were a god of something. It’s crazy

No, the backing up of the car at the end, is not the reverse of the arrival. It looks like weeks have gone by since they drove up. Grass that wasn't there, is now overgrown. To keep the family from having to face serious questions on their disappearance, I imagined that the road to the theme park was always overgrown, but they saw it differently when they arrived because it was part of the spirit world. It was back to 'normal' when they began to leave.

The first time I saw this movie I thought “That looks just like the island of Kame house” and thought it was just a coincidence. I guess Hayao Miyazaki is a bigger DBZ fan than I thought!
