City in the sky, pure and beautiful

I listened to the soundtrack of Jo Hisaishi's Castle in the Sky a long time ago, and it was very pure.

One day, I really opened this movie that I have always wanted to watch, and calmed down to savor it.

The familiar and unfamiliar city in the sky came into my eyes, and the eternal city in the sky at the end of the film stood, that is the pure picture that I have always been with.

Human beings have been making progress, and the pure environment like the city in the sky is the dream that human beings have been pursuing. Does this conflict? The development of science and technology, in the end, is pure, pure?

I think I will dedicate my strength to humanity's march towards purity.

    Anti-war is really Miyazaki's favorite theme, and because of this, his works are always shrouded in humanistic concerns.

    Steampunk, the age of aircraft, human flying and ultra-high-tech dreams... melded in simple and innocent friendship and love, it's amazing, maybe only Miyazaki can do it. A tree of life floats farther and farther, and goes to places that cannot be seen. People on the ground have foundations and thoughts. It is beautiful. This theme song is so good, how much did I fall in love with Hisaishi before, I don't understand a word of Japanese but can sing everything...?
