IN THIS EPISODE…
Anime remains on the mind as we look at yet another landmark piece of cinema in the halls of anime, Spirited Away. This Academy Award winning film held the record for the highest grossing movie in Japanese history for 19 years with good reason. Anime nerds Dani and Graham, along with anime nerd in-training Matthew, examine this masterpiece of Japanese animation by Hayao Miyazaki. We discuss its powerful messages regarding loneliness, greed, being true to yourself, and the values of human connection. Spoilers are included in this episode.
