Yeah, I should probably watch it again.

I'm kinda sentimental with this movie. After all that's the first anime I ever watched. I'll check out Miyazaki's other creations as well someday.

I've seen most, and as they came out (starting with Nausicaa, but Conan - the incredible tide too), and I still prefer SA over all the others. I guess it's a matter of taste :)

its actually one of my favorites, you can watch it multiple times and always find something new. i always found totoro overrated, still great though

I read tentacles instead of tendencies.

Well yeah, I didn't see it as a kid. D:

I always thought it's just a bath.

A social statement wrapped in an animated movie. The extra layer really does make the movie better.

exactly. why would it ruin anything by being more complex?

LOL

and your cat Khajiit San (but it has nothing to do with Spirited Away xd)

Well, many japanese words have the same sound, but with different meanings. I can bet Yuna from FFX doesn't mean that (i.e. the kanjis are different). :P

Of course it does, I exaggerated it for the need of a post. But watching it as a child I'd never link that place to a kind of brothel.

Agreed.

Indeed, it is.
As a kid, it always crept me out when her parents became pigs.

DUDE, spoiler alert! :C
