This was a randomly funny movie. I was entertained by the occasional slight skewing of reality while it still remained supposedly realistic. The office-mates are an entertaining mix of people that cover all the steryotypical types of office people. The movie kept me entertained all the way through with its various plot lines woven together and satirical humor.

This movie was good but it seemed to have too many predictable elements. There's a girl who's very mysterious. A boy she can't stand. Through various events they become fond of eachother. Also, the theme of life and death was not discussed in a very original manner. Overall, it was enjoyable but it just seemed like it was lacking too much to come clote to some of the other masterpieces we have come to experience.

This is by far one of the best Myazaki films. Everything is so well done. I especially enjoy how many different elements of Japanese folk lore blend with the elements of Japanese culture. The world she is in is full of different creatures from folk lore while at the same time she is still noing many of the things that would commonly be done in (a slightly older) Japanese culture. Her transition from a scarred little girl into a self confident individual is done very well. I also enjoyed the fact the movie didn't add any cheesee romantic elements to it. Of course she loved Haku, and because of that she was strong enough not to turn around when she was returning to her world. I've watched this movie again and again and I still love it every single time.
