Dedicated to Chihiro's Faceless Monster

I don't know if this is the first time I've watched Chihiro. Over and over, I'll always find it on a day when I'm idle and empty inside.
I used to be at home, bored in my room, turned off the lights, found a comfortable position, and cried while watching.
My mother watched it with me many times, she didn't understand why I was so obsessed with this film.
It seems that since I started collecting stationery, stickers, and comics at the age of 10, every summer and winter vacation, I will turn out my childhood collections in an afternoon, read it again, and read it again. It's like flipping through the letters between middle school and friends. I read it once a year, and I get a lot of emotion every year.
Xue is right, in Mr. Miyazaki's films there is always a girl who is not pretty, a weirdo, and then a journey. In fact, a person will always feel fear when reading Mr.'s works, although the ending is full of moving.
I love Chihiro's faceless monster, I believe he is Chihiro's guardian, he just doesn't know how to express his feelings. I love him more than Xiaobai.
It seems that the father of Jinyu Ji is also a weirdo, but his heart is full of love.
It is not princesses and princes that deserve to be praised in works of art, but humble mortals who have love in their hearts but are ashamed to express them, and can only be a shadow guarding and admiring people.
Some people say that looking at Qianxun always reminds me of when I was a child, when I was forgotten by my parents, when I was locked in my home alone, or when I was bullied by children but never dared to fight back.
I think Mr. should have a beautiful but dark childhood, and there is always some lingering pain left in his heart, so even in the innocent children of animation, loneliness, fear, and those unspeakable sadness can still be seen.
Childhood experiences can affect the whole life, inner vulnerability or insecurity. In the future, he will still be unable to face his younger self calmly.
The sun will still rise tomorrow, but it still can't erase the darkness in my heart.
A warm ending gives people strength, just don't let go of the past easily.
Everyone is a small person, everyone is ignored, everyone is a faceless monster.
I love Faceless, I love that ordinary and young self.

    Ten years later, I just want to cry. In fact, we all understand the ending.

    After so many years, I will still fall in love with the gentle white dragon without saying a word. I will still be moved by a wooden sign held by a man without a face. I still want to sit in the attic and eat a bean bag while watching the tram pass by. But... I can't say "I want to stay in that world and never come out again"! May there be no jobs in the fantasy world! By the way, Chihiro is 28 years old now. I don’t know if I have reunited with Bai Long. If we follow the standard of a good story, shouldn’t we? She has probably become an ordinary office worker, taking the last tram home every day, but when passing through every river, she will remember that she once loved a dragon when she was a girl.
