A huge THANK YOU to YOUUUU! I had NO IDEA this movie was that full of symbolism! Now that I have this new insight, I can watch it again and really get it.
You present an interesting view on the use of water and purity and how the human spirit are represented. I honestly never noticed they were all over weight, and that they were headed to and underground! I figured the water was just because most spiritual realms you must cross the water, "pay the ferrie man" yk? Though adding the element of the polluted river spirit as farther edvince as to why they're overweight, unable to access the spiritual bath house and headed underground 🤯. My good they'd you just turned a coming of age film into a horror flick. They say Junji Ito is a "horror" artist, but the sheer layer on layers on layer that EVERY Miyazaki film has even when it seems so light hearted is why his is a true Master at this art form.
Accurate. Unless someone is stubborn and decided they dont like it before watching it, i dont know how anyone couldn't like this movie. Its my favorite studio ghibli movie for sure and ive seen most of them😊😊
I've been a huge fan of this film ever since I watched it when I was 16 the sumer it came out, my sister didn't like any kindf of anime until I pointed her to Spirited away and all of Studio Ghiblis work.
Another awesome pick. 👏 Princess Mononoke too please. StoryDive had a good video a long time ago about the mythology. That was like my first delve into anime after Akira, it was a big hit in the U.S. as a kid
@@patmurphy8622 I mean I love the idea of another host when they're good but I mean if you compare the two Paul doesn't get a lot of things wrong he's friendly he doesn't say cringy stuff that has nothing to do with the subject of what there talking about and he will admit if he get something wrong I mean if you step back and look at it there are a lot of people commenting on a lot of stuff there's a lot of people not watching some of the videos because it has Mt in it
@@patmurphy8622 I mean I wouldn't mind him if you actually did a good job a lot of people skip out on heavy spoilers videos because it has Mt in it and Paul checks mt's work before allowing it to be uploaded and have the corrections that he makes in it fixed it wouldn't be such a bad thing
@@panamared1981 well for the fact that he gets a lot of information wrong doesn't bother correcting himself doesn't bother admitting that he made a mistake he says a lot of cringy stuff that has nothing to do with the topic of the video and honestly Paul should definitely double check his work before allowing Mt to upload it
I watch this movie when it was released in the US and fell in love with it. One of my favorite things recently has been showing it to my kids and watching them fall in love with the two. It's such a fantastic story 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
HBO Max, or whatever it's called now, has a couple of live performances of shows they did in Japan, Broadway-style. It was awesome to see. I think they're leaving soon, so check it out while you can if you have the service, or wherever it moves to.
Subscribed. Thank you thank you thank you for making the time to tell us other characters the actors have voiced! It shows how much time and dedication you put into this video and I thank you so much for that.
One of the best breakdowns I’ve seen (and I feel like I’ve watched hundreds of them). Great job, MT! Can’t wait to rewatch the film now. Thanks! One really strange thing I noticed toward the end of the video: when you showed the IRL clips of smokestacks, etc., the electrical towers looked so much like the Shinto gate/symbol from the beginning! Interesting!
I recently rewatched this movie and was blown away by the story telling and metaphor. This is such a great breakdown and I really appreciate all the research that went into identifying all the creatures and symbolism... esp the little chicks, who are my faves.
Please do Howl's Moving Castle (our family favorite ) next. I have done everything in my power to encourage my two kids to gravitate towards Studio Ghibli movies. 😂 Mostly because of the lessons they teach, transcending time.
While Spirited Away is objectively Ghibli's best movie, I think I enjoy watching Kiki's Delivery Service more. The movie is just so wholesome and if I'm feeling a little down, watching it makes me feel better.
Thanks for the breakdown, MT. This is my favorite Miyazaki movie. Watching the transformation of young Chihiro from a kind of bratty child to a thoughtful and caring individual was so special.The spiritual elements in this movie are done beautifully.
Although Princess Mononoke is my favorite movie, I would argue Spirited Away is Studio Ghibli's best movie. Its just such a joy to watch and its hard to find anyone who doesnt like it
@@Johnnybobonny1837 how when all he does is get things wrong never checks his work before uploading it and not to mention saying cringy things that have nothing to do with the video
Favorite anime movie! Interesting how insanely good low budget movies are 🧐 Hollywood should take notes, maybe they can one day recuperate their losses from these insanely high budget flops 🤨 no need for crazy affects just need a great portrayal of relatable characters 😊
Kinda a stretch, the baba yaga inspiration seems to me to have also influenced "Howl's Moving Castle" with the chicken legs of Baba Yaga's being reflected in the aforementioned castle
Awesome review, MT! I figured I wasn't really into anime until I happened to catch Spirited Away around 2003. I enjoyed it so much that I bought a DVD copy. Sadly, a roommate stole my copy.
“Weird-ass” is an adjective that is used WAY too much in this video. This movie is wonderful but it contradicts itself all the time depending on who you talk to. Consumerism is bad- don’t be greedy- but don’t be lazy! Work hard for room and board and forget who you are. Eating people who are very greedy is somehow a bad thing. One big headed lady is mean but one big headed lady is nice!!! ITS SO CONFUSING! Also- making a 10 year old work to keep her name doesn’t really illustrate how the “younger generation” doesn’t want to work. She is 10.
Oh we doin this meow? Aight. Let's do like 80s on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting with legend. Then Sci fi Sunday every 2 weeks for the 60s. Anything else can stay behind the 60s. 70s should be in the spring or have its own month. And 90s stays retro with you 2000s flicks until it's old and goes with the 80s films? Huh?
Spirited away was my first Ghibli film and it ruined the others for me. Theyre good, dont get me wrong, but theyre NOT nearly as good/compelling as Spirited Away
@@MasterTainmentI mean if you do a better job and check your work before uploading it because you get a lot of stuff wrong you would have a lot more people following you and enjoying your work but you don't and you say cringy stuff
@@MasterTainmentwell maybe do a good job you won't have so much criticism all you do is get stuff wrong say cringy stuff and you never correct yourself people should check your work before allowing it to be uploaded here the other guy was right you do suck
Oh stop it , the English dub is fine most Ghibli movies have decent cast for the dubs and aren't you typical anime bash out these lines without even watching
Agreed! It's always bothered me when one of the lines was wholesale changed instead of translated to give a completely different feeling to the moment. When the "stink" god is in the tub Lin is wearing a mask to protect herself from the smell, and she tells Chihiro that Kamaji is getting more bath water ready, yet in the English dub it has her shouting something like "I'm not going to let it hurt you!" Like... wtf? Why did they change that line? It's weird and suspect to change dialogue so radically and totally unnecessary, and really doesn't make sense in the context, at least in my opinion.
It’s not a video meant for children just because it covers an animated film. Parents who give their children unfettered access to the internet don’t get to complain about what they stumble across. This isn’t TH-cam Kids.

MT .. another amazing breakdown
Many thanks for this insightful video, MT! Much appreciated!
Saw this for the first time recently. Chef’s kiss.
OMG finally MT! I’m hyped you broke this down! This movie is so dope! Idk how many times a I’ve watched.
MT this was a killer post; love this movie and the analysis. Thank you.

As someone who isn't a huge anime fan i like this breakdown.... I can see how people enjoy this
I’m not sure this counts as anime?
@@walkerjake79Anime is just Japanese animation. All Ghibli films are anime!
Thank you for doing this. One of the most beautiful movies and stories ever told.
You crushed it with this one!

Absolute classic anime movie you really can't beat it let's get it MT
100% would rather see this type of content than breakdowns of music videos! Please please please, grave of the fireflies, or the boy and the heron!
omg! my favorite movie of all time! I watch it every year or as often as I can. glad I saw this as a child❤
Such a great film. I like your logic too.
YESSSSS MT BREAKING DOWN MY FAV GHIBLI MOVIE??? So awesome!!!
Thanks for covering this MT, great breakdown. One of my favorite movies !!
Id say this a Howls moving Castle are my favorite two of his movies.
Big thanks
I’ll say it again, love the addition of MT. Also really enjoy Spirited Away
@@patmurphy8622 and I'll say it again as well Mt sucks

My first SG film. And what a film it is
This movie came out on my 8th birthday! Good times, this is one of my favorites! I too was going through a huge life change so how apt
Thank you MThis video is awesome. Please do more Miyazaki and Ghibli
My favorite animated film of all time.
Love the channel. Are you going to make 28 years later trailer breakdown?
Omg!!! ✨✨✨ LETS GO!!!!! 🐭🐦⬛
Studio Ghibli breakdown series?
Holy fuck! I did not expect this! This is my favorite Ghibli movie!
Thanks again MT, another great breakdown! One of my favorite films of all time
Omg of my favorite movies!
OMG YESSS!
Edit: MT this was a fantastic breakdown! Looking forward to seeing if you do My Neighbor Totoro or Howl's Moving Castle 🤘🏻🖤
No he did a terrible breakdown and always does
Now I wanna rewatch Spirited Away
Can't find this movie in the wild. Might be time to order this.
Music is awesome on this
While Spirited Away is objectively Ghibli's best movie, I think I enjoy watching Kiki's Delivery Service more. The movie is just so wholesome and if I'm feeling a little down, watching it makes me feel better.
Yeah I think Kikis Delivery service is one of my favourites to me because it’s my daughter favourite
Nooooooo way your covering spirited away! Do more from studio Ghibli please, thank you for covering it M.T I appreciate and love you man!
M..t doesn't do a good job
@CerealMilkDVD Hater.
Thanks for the breakdown, MT. This is my favorite Miyazaki movie. Watching the transformation of young Chihiro from a kind of bratty child to a thoughtful and caring individual was so special.The spiritual elements in this movie are done beautifully.
i learned to ride a bike on a bike that was fished out of a river. i think modern river spirits would all ride bikes these days.
God I love this movie so much. Kiki’s delivery service next please!!
Although Princess Mononoke is my favorite movie, I would argue Spirited Away is Studio Ghibli's best movie. Its just such a joy to watch and its hard to find anyone who doesnt like it
Ghibli, (pronounced Gib-lee), is the name of the hot southern Sahara wind blowing up through Libya.

MT was my first intro to breakdowns so happy to see him.
I’d love to see an Akira breakdown, wondering if I missed anything after so many viewing
If its MT its a insta watch+like!
no its an insta click off the video
I've always wondered when Kamaji says that Chihiro is his granddaughter if it was true or not.
1:30 so Samora from The Ring😨
13:56 her name probably comes from Yamauba mountain witch in Japanese and she probably base of the witch who raised kintaro.
1:43 it says Risa (理砂) not Rumi.
Eating the single pomegranate seed is a reference to Greek mythology where Persephone eats the same thing in the Realm of the Dead

ssshhh do you hear that? ... its the winds of change....
Bro ain’t no silk worm as no face 😂😂😂😂
MT the brotha… he’ll yeah 👍
Im sorry, this movie is a banger and one of my favorite Miyazaki movies, but it isnt the best in my opinion. Nothing beats Totoro for me lol
There’s a lot of movies these guys don’t review why idk
Awesome review, MT! I figured I wasn't really into anime until I happened to catch Spirited Away around 2003. I enjoyed it so much that I bought a DVD copy. Sadly, a roommate stole my copy.

That's not kitkat. That's a japense snack, Pocky. It looks and tastes very different from kitkat. It is superior to kitkat imo.
you see the box has the word "kot" on it, which is a common way of referencing brands, plus the snack is blocky and not a stick.
KitKat is very popular in Japan with unique flavors not available elsewhere. Plus you can see the word kat on the box.
It's KitKat, even says it on the packaging. Pocky looks totally different
Ugh mt clicks off immediately *
