I fell out of the Anime fad almost as quickly as I dove into it, and now 95% of the time refuse to see anything "Anime" (it's not the art, honestly, I really like the style and think alot of work is put into it...It's the Fandom-and-animated series that get to me). I was worried at first to of seen Disney getting together with the anime, i thought that the "trend" had become even bigger and soon everything was going to be like Naruto. But after I heard it was directed by Hayao Miyazaki, I honestly calmed down and was quite excited to see how it turned out. I more than enjoyed Princess Mononoke and a couple of his other films, never once before had he disapointed me.
And Spirited away wound up being one of the best Disney/Miyazaki films I had seen in quite a long time. It was very Alice in wonderland like but more heart-touching. I became quite attatched to little Chihiro and there were quite a few scenes that i felt i could relate to. I'll admit right now I almost cried in the end. The animation was outstanding, and the English Dubs actually fit well with the characters.
Overall, I give 5 out of 5.
