Did have a blast laughing with the kids over the unintentionally funny bits tho. WHY was there a moment in the climactic duel when the camera was literally a go pro strapped to somebody’s sword AS it connected with the other guy’s face? Ben Barnes I see you 🫶

The disorienting fall into a world with absolutely incomprehensible rules, stirring soundtrack (Joe hisaishi my beloved), gorgeous visuals (in the pelicans defense the warawara DID look so edible), and a really moving, under-the-surface story of a boy grieving his mother and learning how to live in the world again…it’s one of my fave ghiblis now. Even with all the freaky birds.
