@@moonlightzchannel8277 Haku does tell his plans to Chihiro before they depart. He says he is going to stop working for Yubaba now that he got his name back. As for whether they reunite, this is left ambiguous. I think it doesn't really matter. What matters is that all characters learned something from their adventures and are finally free to live their lives on their own terms. That being said, I'm sure that hypothetically they do meet in the future because well there's nothing stopping them from meeting. It's just that it isn't relevant to the story or the message of the story that's why it's left unresolved.

Now that you said that, reminds me that if she wanted to get her parents back she had to work, and I don't see any better meaning of what becoming an adult is rather than working (have a long time since I wrote in English so sorry for any mistakes)

I just wish that sometimes I can fade into the world in spirited away and forget reality. This video is truly inspiring and although I long for my life to be like a fairy tale where there is a happy ending and true love, this showed me that reality is not what you always think it is. I just watched spirited away for the first time not long ago and I'm instantly attached. The story, amazing. The art, beautiful. I just wish that the spirit world were real so I could go there sometimes.

I know your comment is from 3 years ago but I just wanted to offer this perspective about the spirit world.... although she sometimes forgot her problems and who she was, that act of forgetting was always presented as dangerous. Her reminder of her identity was the note from her friend, which was also a reminder of her greatest pain in the real world. We can grow out of our struggles but only when we do so intentionally. Escaping problems doesn't make them go away, and the movie argues that escaping them actually makes them less fixable as time goes on. I empathize though with the longing to forget sometimes. Good luck out there.

Oh my god .... It's right in the feels.... I see myself when you explain the story..... I think that was what miyazaki want, to send a hidden message for our adultself to understand it ...

I think this was a fantastic video, loved it. There's so many life lessons to draw from Spirited Away and I think people tend to get so caught up in all those film theories and everything else, that they forget them. Spirited Away is very much a film about life and about a little girl growing up, learning how to navigate life. It's interesting you said about the real world as an alien world, too. I recently did a video myself talking about the world here feeling alien because that's how the wider world feels to kids when they're forced to grow up/enter the world of work etc. I really like your editing in this video too. I'm honestly shocked you don't have more subscribers, but I empathise 100% with the struggle and I've just given one extra subscriber.

Being the uncultured eighth graders we were, we made fun of it for like a week, and didn't think much of it after that. But recently I've been wondering about it, and been thinking about these kinds of anime in general. They really touch me now, years later for some reason.

Kind words are themselves a spell that can make people feel better. It happened to me. I was lonely and depressed in a foreign land, and had palpitations one day. The doctor who saw me was so kind, her voice so soothing, her touch so gentle--all things that I had been missing, especially the warmth of another's touch--that I felt so much better after that. Truly that was the first time in my 40 years of existence then that I could feel the power and real effect of genuine caring and loving kindness even from a stranger.
