There’s quite some Anime movies I like more than Princess Mononoke (Perfect Blue, Wolf Children, Ghost in the Shell…) but it’s undoubtedly a masterpiece. That’s the one that should be the spearhead of Ghibli, not Spirited Away.
Just wanted to say Perfect Blue is a masterpiece. I remember showing it to a friend of mine in college, and afterwards, she looked at me and went, “In one of my film classes, they showed us how to show time passing in a movie, and that movie fucked with every single one of them.”
Truly a masterpiece. Shame it’s the least known Kon movie and it got a BD/streaming release in very few countries, in mine you either go to sketchy sites or buy the used DVD for 150€. Deserves way more recognition.
