I wish i could find the funimation dub. Its seemingly wiped from all streaming.

Great research work - well done 👍🏻 Thank you. It’s why I really respect Miyazaki 💕 I’m going to read the book, too! But I’m still convinced, that her lack of self-confidence is a huge important point point talking about the curse. Because only in the moment of deep sleep - when all sorrows and stress are gone for a moment - she is shown young again. ✨

Good job! ....except "impactful" is NOT a word. This 'word' is in no printed dictionary. It is a corporate fabrication. Rosemcrompton and TheSassyLibrarian both have essays on this topic, and they are correct. The "Grammar Splaining" TH-cam channel also has a video on this corporate fabrication. It is a corporate word trash, like brite or lite.

You left out a very huge part of the world and fandom that generationally grew up on Shin-Chan, the Chinese speaking world that includes China, Taiwan(which granted the world an extremely iconic Mandarin Shin-Chan dub), Malaysia, Singapore and more. And I’d say the Taiwanese version is the most faithful of the Japanese original in the world because they kept every raunchy joke and adult theme.

this is a really nice video *^_^*

Yes, I fell in love with shin chan because of adult swim too, I wish they had done more seasons! And he will always be called Action Bastard to me 😂

I personally don't like that molasses song.

Yooo, the Indian Shin Chan lore is a bit deeper, they initially aired without censoring the nud*ty and made shin really rude to her mom. kids started doing all that irl, then they started watering it down to the point that it was completely neutered. Also, the funimation changed more than the names, they go to an American school smh. 😭. Ik its a bit dated but the republican Georgie was too on point i loved how they Americanised it.

Despite being into anime at the right time I somehow never heard of shin Chan until now. I’m playing natsumon and now I’m glad I saved the shin Chan version for after

I hope you make more shinchan videos 🥺 I feel like there’s so many more eps and movies to deep dive into. This was such a great video and I could really feel the love and passion that you have for shinchan ❤️

Anyone prefer the Fox Kids version? -(Honor and a P!)

The last point is obvious I feel. Of course, Howl/Hauro knew it from the beginning. I don't feel that there is a different take on this. The second point, however, makes sense when you know the book, naturally. Without the book, though, I feel many elements can be explained in a different way and it could be seen as sort of far-fetched. If you know the book and choose to see it this way it is ok. If not there are other views on it. Miyazaki very often plays with many mentality and cultural elements in his movies or shows centered in the West.

Watched the American dub when I was like 11-12. Funniest shit ever. Even if it’s not the real translation, I have fond memories of it

Loved your video💕

Seriously, with over 2 decades in the making, why is Animal Crossing the ONLY franchise in the "real time clock" genre?

Thank you kindly for this deeply personal take on this beautiful work. I really appreciate your narrative and storytelling. 💛

I love pixel art cause I spent 10 years making sprites for rpg maker as a kid. Kinda nostalgic for me.

In the Netherlands only the first 3 season where ever dubbed and aired

Loved this, I also grew up with Funimation's dub of Shin-Chan and still adore it to this day. Although I really wish more of the original Japanese version was subbed in English, I was enjoying it so much until I realized only a small portion of it has been fansubbed 😔

Shin Chan has some of the best animated films lol

To be honest, I prefer the other Father in the movie

❤

Thank you for your thorough explanation. I think this story takes a lot of deep thoughts. Isn’t it more for adults’s novel rather than the children’s ?

I love all your video essays! 🥺🤩

I was aware of this show long before many other shonen anime and let’s just say I think it’s funny

Shin-chan and Mitzi (Misae) are also my two favs. <3

terrible video essay. you spent only 2 minutes actually dissecting the film. the rest was all irrelevant (albeit interesting) exposition that you never even tied into your analysis.

Didnt finish the community center until year three bc i forgot about it

wOa This is amazing. I don't think I could ever do so much work researching a single piece of media like you did. That's amazing! This video explains q lot about the movie that I didn't understand the first few times I watched. Thanks for making this!

THANK YOU

I'm from Spain and Shin-chan is my childhood I'm so glad to see people talking about it, I used to love it as a kid and even today I still love to go back to the DS games and the movies, (Adult empire strikes back is no joke my favorite movie of all time and always manages to make me a bit emotional), the show is still earing over here, but sadly the distribution rights were bought by Fox meaning it's no longer on public TV, there's still the official channel who posts old chapters and that's honestly my main go to for comfort shows.

I remember watching it on Adult Swim in the 2000s when I was in elementary school. My mom never really thought much about it because it looked like a children’s cartoon until she stayed up to watch it with me one night. Needless to say I wasn’t allowed to watch it anymore but that didn’t stop me. 😂

Found this great channel now it's gone. What happened? Where is dearest dimple? it was beautiful that i could come here for the serenity it brings. 😭

Wait… “butchered version”? The US version is 100% better than Ghost Stories.

This is so funny after The Boy And The Heron has come out

Beautiful research and explanation 😊

I thought he was a per*vert mid*get of some kind. that just quite went over my Head.

I was never all that familiar with Shin-chan, but I recently started watching the Funimation dub and I’m loving it so far. I’m considering checking out the Japanese version as well.

The eyes were the hardest thing for me to get past when I first saw it on Adult Swim. Inverted from what many art styles do, they’re black with white pupils. But when I did, I found one of the most insanely hilarious programs in existence

I thought Sophie's aging was more about her confidence. How she felt about herself at that point. In scenes where she was confident she got younger maybe not as she was at first but way younger than a 90 year old.

HMC BOOK MENTION!!!

I have a different opinion on the ending. I think that the ‘witch of waste’ that was holding on to howls heart was his mother. She was holding on to his heart to protect him. In the final scenes when she gives it to Sophie, Sophie can then love howl and howl love her back. It’s mentioned in this video that howl has had many encounters with other girls but Sophie is the one who finally got his heart. Watching this film for the first time since I was little kid and this is a crazy film. 10/10 🤝

note that ginger island isnt a dlc but just part of the 1.5 update simply because the dev ConcernedApe is the most amazing person on the planet:)

I remeber being a kid and watching shinchan and his dad boost their confidence with the man song. "In order to be a man you must have honor, honor and a peeeeeenis oooouu ooouu oouu~~" the wiggle at the end with the oous is mandatory

After 3 times watching and 1.5 time reading, I'm pretty confident in knowing what's going on, but the real question is why.

Not to be rude but i don't know why people said that studio ghibli movies was emotional, I've watched howl's and grave of fireflies but i didn't really got into it, but when I watch clannad and Violet evergarden i got really emotional, is it only me?

I love it! Thank you!

Even though the pronunciation is off, the fox dub is worth the watch. Just saying. I hate the disney dub.

You can love someone who doesn't have a heart. Unfortunately, you can. Not recommended, though.
