    A magical cartoon that immerses you in the world of Japanese mythology. I love this Miyazaki.

    A girl saves her unlucky parents while experiencing a million adventures in the magical world.

    A magical journey into the world of Japanese folklore mysticism. Excellent animation, deep plot and unique atmosphere immerse the viewer in a magical adventure. The film captivates with its beauty and wise messages.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Hayao Miyazaki is great in every work he does. But here he reveals himself in a special way. Chihiro strives to save her parents and along the way, unusual adventures await her. It is better not to watch the opening scenes on an empty stomach. Aesthetic pleasure is guaranteed.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    My first anime…I’m shocked how many years of my life I ignored them. The cartoon just pulled me in, I was in another dimension, I felt everything, guys, it’s a blast! I’m still impressed. Highly recommend!

    I don’t think I’ll watch anything better in this genre than this anime. Thanks to Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki for the most impressive journey through the world of Japanese mythology.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    The film impressed with its drawing, well-developed world, lively characters, interesting dialogues and plot. However, the main character and antagonist did not arouse interest. The anime is suitable for children and teenagers, showing how to cope with problems and take responsibility for loved ones.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Despite the fact that the plot is quite simple, this work grabs you literally from the first minute. The anime is very atmospheric and immerses you into its world. I was also very pleased with the presence of metaphorical images that are still relevant in our time.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    A gentle and strong story, with quirky characters, filled with a lively depiction of every bush, pebble, water, food, and of course the character, be it the main or secondary one, an unexpected and winding plot, interesting life dialogues and an instructive good story.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    I heard about this movie but didn’t have time to watch it. And then I felt like I was in a fairy tale watching this anime, honestly. If they let me watch this as a child, I wouldn’t be upset then and now. It’s an incredibly 🤯 cool anime.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Hayao Miyazaki and that says it all. Probably already cult animation films. With their own style and mood. I’m rewatching it for the umpteenth time and it’s still very, very interesting.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    An ancient witch runs the baths, ghosts of various types are having fun in the amusement park, and deities come to people to remove a splinter… Miyazaki impresses with his boundless imagination and style, in which tradition is intricately intertwined with modernity and something unprecedented.

    My favorite cartoon after Howl’s Moving Castle, beautiful, mystical, soulful and exciting! I rewatch it every few years, even though I’m already 43…

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Started watching Miyazaki. For now, for nostalgic films. I watched this one in early childhood and I only remember the frightening scene with the pig parents. The cartoon itself is simply beautiful. The music is on some transcendental level, as is the story as a whole.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    This is an amazing anime. Childhood anime. It is impossible to treat him without prejudice. Everything about it is beautiful, from the stupid parents and the child solving their problems to the vibrant world of ghosts and spirits.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    I began my acquaintance with Miyazaki’s work with this anime; I must admit, I’m not a fan of this genre, but I began to understand why Hayao Miyazaki’s work is so highly valued. The cartoon is very easy and suitable for everyone. Although I wouldn’t recommend him specifically for dating

    Translated to English

    Watched

    A beautiful story full of magic, mystery and love. Unique atmosphere, beautiful visuals, amazing soundtrack – definitely worth watching and rewatching!

    A wonderful and very kind cartoon, I didn’t expect it to be so brilliant and interesting

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Miyazaki is a great artist, no doubt about it. His world is fascinating, intriguing and captivating. But towards the end, the plot of Spirited Away still gives up, becomes smaller, because friendship and work will grind everything down. The Soviet animated narrative has taken root well in the Japanese landscape.

    Translated to English

    Watched

    Hayao Miyazaki is one of the best animators of our time, and Spirited Away can be called the crown of his creation.

    Translated to English

    Spirited Away on the big screen is the ultimate experience. Colors, music, perfect story. The best choice in the post-quarantine movie famine.

    The whole film is a complete metaphor. Such works are extremely rare and always a must-see. I recommend checking it out
