Recently, there has been a series of animations that complement Hayao Miyazaki. This is an early work. It is relatively short and still full of fantasy. Many of the characters have also appeared in subsequent animations. In "Listen to the Side", the Cat Count that Tsukishima Wen saw in the grandfather's shop was the Cat Count here.
The girl was grateful for saving a cat, and entered the cat kingdom inexplicably. She had a life adventure, and the plot was very similar to "Spirited Away". Full of fantasy.
But in essence, what the movie is about to discuss is probably the confusion of adolescent girls, their own understanding of themselves. I chose to be a cat because I wanted an easier life. After she became a cat, she still felt that it was good to stay here, and she could escape many troubles in the original world. It is very similar to the world that Chihiro saw after entering the small town. Even a little girl has experienced the process of escaping from another world. The girl has the cat Earl, and Chihiro also has the help of Bailong and other friends. It looks more like a growth. In my youth, I once thought of a very simple life, and even thought of escaping from my present life to seek a moment of security and comfort, but eventually I had to come back and face reality. The so-called dozens of items will turn you into a cat, and it will be difficult to find your original self.
