This animated film is really endless. It's about the adventures of Shida and Baru, as well as pirates, the army, and Musca, who are looking for the city of Laputa in the sky, just like when I heard Hisaishi's "Accompanying You" , just think of the scene where Hida fell from the flying boat.
The existence of the city in the sky seems to let us see the far future of this animation setting era. It is an aerial civilization that surpasses the civilization on the ground for thousands of years, which makes people yearn for infinite. Bass firmly believes that the existence of the flying stone in the city in the sky photographed by his father makes this animation even more exciting, and several scenes in which it takes Xida to fly are impressive. Laputa has not been inhabited for a long time. There is only an aerial city guarded by robots, where countless plants and ancient creatures live. The picture is really yearning. Of course, seeing Muska trying to dominate the world, breaking the tranquility of the city, and suffering countless damages, what an infuriating thing!
Of course, the ending is good, and the bad guys will never get their wish. From every animation of Hayao Miyazaki, we can feel his understanding of peace, and at the same time, he raised questions in this film, thinking about the direction of human civilization. where to develop. Watching the two teenagers looking for the city in the sky, it seems that they are chasing a dream, how brave they are to go forward without hesitation!

    Still think this is Hayao Miyazaki's best one-"I will protect her like a fool"
