I really like the scene after the big storm where everything is flooded and there's like a big ocean where there were once rolling hills and stuff, and the train tracks are maybe 6 inches underwater, and Chihiro gets on the train as chill piano music plays in the background and no-face is benevolent again. Blue for miles around as the train rumbles along with a big wake behind it. The water is perfectly reflective and stretches all the way to the horizon, and the train is suspended in time and space with only the occasional cottage and railroad sign sticking out of the water.
