In the film, the bright side of the prince is chasing the dark body. I think that the dark side and the light side can be used to pursue the meaningless body, and the prince finally found not only the meaning of love, but also the pain. That is the joy of life and the experience of the pain of death. This makes people break away from the nihilistic outlook on life.
The words of the archmage are very useful. If you don't understand death, you don't understand life. If you lose death, you lose life. The cycle of life and death is the way to balance the world.
However, when this philosophy is expressed in words, it loses its charm, leaving only a dry voice.
Those who blindly criticize the film and the son of Hayao Miyazaki, I think you are too dark.
