Free watch kaguyahime no monogatari 7. Isao Takahata has long been overshadowed by longtime colleague and Studio Ghibli cofounder Hayao Miyazaki. The younger man (Takahata is 78, Miyazaki 72) has had more and bigger hits, including his latest, the World War II-themed “Kaze Tachinu (The Wind Rises) ” while Takahatas last feature animation, the 1999 family comedy “Hohokekyo Tonari no Yamada-kun (My Neighbors the Yamadas) ” was a rare Ghibli box-office disappointment. And yet Takahata is every bit the anime master that Miyazaki has been widely proclaimed to be, if one with a different style and concerns. His Ghilbi films tend to be more realistic than Miyazakis, beginning with 1988s “Hotaru no Haka (Grave of the Fireflies) ” an unsparing drama about children struggling to survive in the destruction and chaos that enveloped Japan toward the end of WWII. It is the most emotionally devastating Japanese film I have ever seen, while being free of the cloying sentimentality that is a prerequisite for commercial tearjerkers here. So Takahatas latest and quite possibly last film, “Kaguya-hime no Monogatari (The Tale of Princess Kaguya) ” might seem to be a departure, since it is based on the oldest-known Japanese folk tale, which dates to the 10th century. Also, its gestation, eight years by the count of producer Yoshiaki Nishimura, was long even by Ghilbis relaxed standards, with Takahatas reluctance to commit being one factor, production delays another. But far from an uncomfortable fit or a labored effort, “Princess Kaguya” has the feel of a true Takahata film, from its unshrinking emotional fidelity to its sudden, exhilarating leaps into fantasy. Kaguya-hime no Monogatari (The Tale of Princess Kaguya) Rating 4. 5 out of 5 out of 5 Director Isao Takahata Run Time 137 minutes Language Japanese Opens Opens Nov. 23, 2013 The animation, with its combination of bold, dynamic strokes and delicate, lightly brushed colors, may initially look underdone compared with other Ghibli productions, with their lush backdrops and fine detailing, but as the story progressed, I found this more impressionistic style somehow suggestive of the storys origin in the most ancient of tales — and our common desires, fears and dreams. That tale is known to every Japanese, if not to the outside world, though its motifs are also found in Western fairy tales (“Thumbelina, ” “King Thrushbeard”. It begins with an old bamboo cutter, Okina (voiced by Takeo Chii) happening upon a strangely glowing bamboo in the forest and finding inside a tiny, perfectly formed girl (Aki Asakura. He takes her, cradled in his palms, to his wife Ouna (Nobuko Miyamoto) but the little creature soon morphs into a baby that the flummoxed couple decides to raise. The strangeness continues as the baby grows far faster than normal (in one brilliant, spooky sequence she quickly progresses from flailing limbs to a hesitant first step) while taking a laughing delight in the world around her. Okina finds more treasures in the bamboo, including gold nuggets and kimono meant for a princess — that is, for his pretty adopted daughter, who is called Takenoko (Bamboo) and is obviously destined for bigger and better things. Takenoko, however, is happy with the humble places and common people she knows, especially the leader of the neighborhood kids, the rugged, pure-hearted Sutemaru (Kengo Kora. Instead, her newly rich parents install her in a mansion, surround her with servants and have her trained in the ways of the aristocracy, from playing the koto to painting her teeth black. (The former she masters, the latter she indignantly rejects. This beautiful, accomplished, fully grown girl, now called Kaguya-hime (Princess Kaguya) attracts five well-born, ridiculously self-important suitors, but she rejects them all, even when they make seemingly miraculous efforts to meet her absurd demands. Finally the emperor, who is young, handsome and the most arrogant of all, tries to win her hand, but she spurns him as well — and reveals that she is from the moon and must soon return to the land of her birth. This is all pretty much from the folk tale, which raises the question of what, beyond their way of telling it, Takahata and his collaborators have brought to it. The films tag line, “A princess crime and punishment, ” offers a clue, while Takahata himself has said he wanted to explore what “crime” Princess Kaguya might have committed, since the original story is silent on that point. His exploration, though, has little to do with plot, everything to do with his heroines emotional and spiritual journey — and the way it ends. Not to enter spoiler territory, but the climax is a haunting, wrenching evocation of mono no aware — or as it is literally translated, the pathos of things. The basis of Japanese aesthetics since time immemorial, mono no aware is hard to define, but “The Tale of Princess Kaguya” brilliantly illuminates it with images of life at its transient loveliest, of parting in its terrible finality. There is a deep wisdom in this film, but a deep sadness too. If it is Takahatas farewell, its one that will have a long echo, just like his 1, 000-year-old source. Fun fact: Hayao Miyazaki collaborator Joe Hisaishi supplied the soundtrack, his first-ever for a Takahata film. The theme song, “Inochi no Kioku (Memory of Life) ” is sung by Kazumi Nikaido.

“The Tale of Princess Kaguya” 「かぐや姫の物語」 ( Kaguya-hime no Monogatari) A Famed Director: This post has been in the pipeline for almost a year now, suffering delay after delay – until now. Takahata Isao delivers what presumes to be his final Ghibli film, and if that is the case, then what a send-off it was. Grave of the Fireflies is certainly his most famous work to date – and thats for good reason; its brutal, unforgiving, and heart wrenching. The other film of his that Ive seen is the criminally under appreciated Only Yesterday, which, by enjoyment alone, would be my favourite Ghibli movie, thanks to what I would consider to be the best final sequence in cinematic history. Having immensely enjoyed two of his works already, I was expecting much the same the third time around, and thats exactly what I got. Kaguya-hime was, in a word, beautiful – visually, conceptually, and in its delivery. A Famous Story: I was already familiar with some of the details of The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter – the Japanese folktale on which this is based – so I had a rough idea on what was being set up early on. Thankfully, I didnt what know was going to happen throughout most of the film, and so was left both satisfied and surprised by the developments surrounding Kaguya, her journey, and where she came from. Looking back at some key scenes earlier on, the imagery was certainly there for the reveal in the end, which I appreciate. As a whole, the story was a simple one: a girl from the countryside is destined for riches, and so is sent off to a world of wonder to prepare for her new life. Theres the classic rebellious behaviour, a strict teacher, and suitors at the sidelines all fighting for the affection of the most beautiful girl in the capital, worthy of the name Kaguya. As one would expect, Kaguya ( Asakura Aki) was the standout character of the film. She was believable in her actions, her feelings, and her compromises. Whilst the foundation for the story has been done time and time again, Kaguyas character brought it to that higher level. Its interesting to me that the two best moments of the film are both of her running – the first is when she arrives at the mansion with her new robe, racing through the corridors, bumping into folk doing their work, before dashing off again, laughing as she goes. It was a moment of pure bliss that sent a rush right through me, as if Kaguyas joy was tangible. The second – and I imagine the most memorable scene for many – is her escape from her banquet. The shift in art was so sudden, and so incredibly effective – my heart was pumping as she smashed through the walls, flung off her rainbow robes and ran into the moonlight, into the snow, all the way back to her home. It was invigorating to watch, and for as stunning as it looked, both those scenes were made that much more special thanks to the Joe Hisaishi, who returned to do the soundtrack for Kaguya-hime, and did a marvellous job. Animation as Art: Its important to highlight just how stunning the artwork is in this one. I dont think Ive ever quite seen any animated piece like this – to this degree, or length, at least. Whilst I can see why it might be off-putting in the first few minutes, trust me, youll be grateful for it as it goes on. I found myself baffled at how well-crafted and rough it managed to be at the same time. I liked it when the lines were slightly off, when it became scratchy and the palette got the occasional burst of colour (like from Kaguyas robes. Another effective element is the atmospheres in the countryside and the capital; both in their visuals, as well as how they were used in the story. When Kaguya returns (in what I assume was some sort of dream) the colours are dulled, reflecting how times have changed, her friends have moved on, and that spring was no longer in full bloom. Compare that to the end, more than three years later, when Kaguya and Sutemaru ( Koura Kengo) re-unite in the field, when the palette is brimming with vibrancy and everything seems perfect, if just for a moment. One theme that resonated with me the most whilst watching was being in charge of ones own life. We see it with the Bamboo Cutter ( Chii Takeo) who finds Kaguya, idolises her as a princess, and is dedicated to make her one. He tries to do everything he can to give his new daughter the life he thinks she deserves, but never stops to ask her what it is she actually wants. Ona ( Miyamoto Nobuka) and Kaguya have a closer relationship when it comes to understanding, with their back garden modelled like their old village, and the tender moments they share together where both try to escape from the hectic palace life. Kaguya doesnt seem to have any big plans for her future, but after being led around for too long, her inner wish is granted when she has to return from where she came. It was a moment that was emotional, tragic, but oddly relieving as well, to see her be set free and not have to life her life in a cage, unable to do what she pleases. Overview – Final Impressions: If I were to summarise Kaguya-hime, I would say that its very rare to see so much time, effort, and passion came across on the screen as it does here. I felt every second of this film, even if it did drag in the middle and could have been tighter overall. But in a way Im glad it wasnt. Im glad it lingered and had everything play out the way it did. It has to be said that Kaguya-hime was brilliant, beautiful, and a story Im glad was told, especially as one of Studio Ghiblis last films. The following were my thoughts upon seeing Kaguyahime in the theatre soon after it was released. Samu-kun has kindly asked me to share them in this post. – Guardian Enzo Its always a thrill to be in the presence of true genius. Takahata Isao, the 78 year-old “other” of Studio Ghiblis two old lions, is never going to be as well known as his good friend Miyazaki Hayao. His movies are never going to sell as many tickets in Japan, and may never even see a theatrical release in the West. If indeed Kaguya-hime no Monogatari is his last film, as seems very likely, hes rarely if ever going to be mentioned when the conversation turns to the greatest animation directors of our time. But he should be, and Kaguya-hime is a wonderful way to put the exclamation point on the argument his small but superb catalogue makes to that effect. I can say this much – this is a beautiful, powerful film that moved me very deeply. Its always an interesting status check for me when I see an anime film in raw form, and indeed I did find that – much to my satisfaction – Im understanding more of the dialogue now than ever before (though a pause button would surely come in handy. But this is such a timeless and elemental story that the feelings largely transcend linguistic barriers, and I suspect even a viewer with no Japanese skills would have understood the gist of the story. Takahata hasnt made many films – this is only his fifth as a Director for Ghibli in 27 years – but the ones hes made have counted. I still consider Grave of the Fireflies one of the saddest and most profound films in any language or medium (Roger Ebert called it the greatest anti-war film ever made) and I have a special soft spot for My Neighbors the Yamadas (which was a rare commercial failure for Ghibli. Takahatas style both in terms of visuals and storytelling is as different from Miyazakis as night and day, though theyve worked together on many film and TV projects – Takahata is a much more spare and elegant filmmaker, and if youve seen the previews for Kaguya-hime you know that its pretty much an impressionistic work, choosing shading and contrast over detail and a rainbow of colors. But dont let that fool you – the detail is wonderful and the animation top cailber, and this is one of the most striking and beautiful anime in many years. Some of you may be familiar with “The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter”, the 10th-Century Japanese folk tale on which this movie is based (every Japanese person old enough to read certainly is. I certainly knew going in that this was going to be an emotional story, but I confess I was a bit put off by the woman sitting next to be who was, no exaggeration, quite audibly crying for about 110 of the 137-minute running time. But for the last 15 minutes of the film, I was wrecked – this makes twice now Takahata has completely reduced me to helpless tears, though the themes could hardly be more different. I hate to keep harping on mono no aware but its so deeply entrenched in the Japanese storytelling tradition, and it imbues every pore of the “The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter”. And Takahata does a magnificent job capturing the emotion of the story on film with his understated, direct style – this feelings at work here are incredibly elemental and universal. Theres no simpler or more powerful story than that of the joy opening your heart to love can bring, and the pain which accompanies the inevitable parting that comes with every loving relationship in the end. For my money Kaguya-hime no Monogatari is certainly the best anime film of 2013, which of course also means its the best Ghibli film of the year. Thats not a knock on Kaze no Tachinu, but a reflection of how beautiful and profound this movie is. My strong emotional reaction to the films closing moments was no doubt enhanced by the sense that it very much represents the end of an era – Miyazaki has announced that Kaze no Tachinu was his final film, and Takahata-sensei is 78 years old. If indeed these are the capstones to their careers I think theyre good ones – but more than that, anime fans and lovers of great cinema should feel very grateful to have lived in a time when two such geniuses were sharing their vision. Other visionaries are already making their mark on the anime world, but Takahata and Miyazaki are unique and irreplaceable figures, and were not likely to see their like again.

[10] Production [ edit] As a child, Takahata read The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. He recalled that he struggled to relate and sympathize with the protagonist; to him, the "heroines transformation was enigmatic" and that it "didnt evoke any empathy from [him. 11] In 1960, Takahata was preparing for a potential adaptation for his employer Toei Animation, which eventually was abandoned. [12] After rereading the tale, he realized the story's potential to be entertaining, as long as an adaptation allowed the audience to understand how Princess Kaguya felt. [11] 13] Studio Ghibli revealed that Isao Takahata was working on a feature-length film in 2008. [14] Takahata announced at the 62nd Locarno International Film Festival in 2009 that he intended to direct a film based on the anonymous Japanese literary tale The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. [15] The Tale of the Princess Kaguya was financed by Nippon TV, whose late chairman, Seiichiro Ujiie, gave 5, 000, 000, 000 (approximately US 40, 000, 000) towards the project. [16] Ujiie loved Takahata's work, and pleaded with Ghibli producer Toshio Suzuki to let Takahata make one more film. [17] Ujiie died on 3 March 2011, but not before being able to view the script and some of the storyboards. [18] To make sure the audience emotionally connected with the film, it was important to Takahata that viewers were able to "imagine or recall the reality deep within the drawings" rather than be distracted by a realistic art style. [19] He wanted to have people "recollect the realities of this life by sketching ordinary human qualities with simple props. 20] To assist with this vision, Osamu Tanabe provided the character designs and animation, and Kazuo Oga drew the watercolor backgrounds. [16] The release of The Tale of the Princess Kaguya was finally confirmed by Studio Ghibli and distributor Toho on 13 December 2012. [21] Soundtrack [ edit] In 2012, Shin-ichiro Ikebe was announced to write the film's score. However, in 2013, Joe Hisaishi replaced Ikebe as the composer. This is the first and only time that Hisaishi has scored a film directed by Isao Takahata. [22] The theme song "When I Remember This Life" was written and performed by Nikaido Kazumi.

So you can always count on it to keep on moving. " If there ever was a quote to perfectly describe the surreal and metaphorical journey that is Kaguya Hime no Monogatari, then this quote would be it. Kaguya-hime no Monogatari, or The Tale of the Princess Kaguya, is a Studio Ghibli film that was created and directed by none other than the legendary Isao Takahata, and was released during the year of Dec 11, 2014 Studio Ghibli have always been at the very forefront in the anime film industry. Their creations have been able to reach out to any and all demographics with great success for decades, and have numerous masterpieces under their belt by now. Most of these are creations of the one and only Miyazaki Hayao, however Hotaru no Haka (Grave of the Fireflies) released back in 1988, one of the most critically acclaimed Ghibli films was written and directed by the studio's co-founder Takahata Isao. But this was something that was known as a one-hit wonder, as his other works never got anywhere near the same level Jan 2, 2016 This Studio Ghibli motion picture is relatively well-acclaimed outside the anime world. As of now it boasts 100% rating on rotten tomatoes and it was nominated for 87th Academy Awards. Unfortunately, for all of its praise it's a surprisingly mediocre work. The movie has some merits - it has delightful watercolor-like visual style. It's very pleasant to watch, one can simply sit and enjoy the flow of images. Animation is vivid and the art style captures the mood of the period and atmosphere of the folk tale very well. What this movie fails to capture however, is the very point it's trying to make.

But why settle for good? We present to you a list of not 5, not 10, but 20 of some of the best anime movies in existence! Dig in and find some new and interesting Japanese animated movies to watch this year.
The Tale of Princess Kaguya is based on the classic Japanese fairy tale "Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. Chances are you don't live in Japan and don't know this tale. Luckily the movie is told in a way that requires absolutely no previous knowledge so even people who don't know much about Japanese culture and folklore can enjoy this (in fact very Japanese) story. Though the original fairy tale was certainly intended for children, I'm not sure many children would enjoy this kind of movie in this age, so it's probably more of a pleasure for mature viewers who know what kind of story and storytelling to expect. Art & Animation – 10 The first thing you will notice about this work is its unusual artstyle. You can clearly see Isao Takahata here, but at the same time the sketchy style is something you will rarely find in animated works. It's more like a moving artwork. Ghibli movies are usually very expensive and very well animated, and this one is no exception (in fact it was the most expensive and most delayed work of the studio, and predicted to be unprofitable due to its high cost and low mainstream appeal from the beginning. Even if you are not a fan of the artstyle, some moments are undeniably breathtaking such as the Kaguya running scenes. The animation is definitely a pleasure for the eyes: Unique, positively artsy, very fairy-taleish, very Japanese and certainly beautiful. Sound – 9 The music was composed by Joe Hisaishi who usually only does the score for Hayao Miyazaki's movies. His orchestral style suits the atmosphere of the story very well. I particularly noticed the music in the first and the last part of the movie. It's also nice to see so many traditional Japanese elements in this score. Kaguya, for instance, plays the koto (a Japanese pluck instrument) but the traditional music is not limited to actual in-movie music. All in all Hisaishi did what he always does: He delivered a great score with some memorable tracks. The calm and beautiful ending song leaves you with a nice aftertaste after the end of the movie. The voice acting is also quite well done. There are many old people and children in this movie, and I was particularly happy that those children were actually voiced by real children. Thus conversations and laughter sound very natural. Kaguya's voice is very pleasant to hear, and her voice actress delivered a vivid performance, most notable in Kaguya's energetic moments. Story & Characters – 7 It is very hard to properly rate the story and the characters. Since the movie is based on a fairy tale, the story itself is fairly simple, and so are the characters. It is very easy to follow the events and naturally there are not many surprises or innovations. There is, however, lots of charme found in this kind of presentation. Isao Takahata was always very skilled in portaying the interactions between humans and daily human emotions and actions. You can witness all of this here as well. Though the characters are generally not very developed, it is easy to understand Kaguya's feelings and her colorful personality makes her memorable. The other characters act mostly according to her roles: The caring mother who understands Kaguya's feelings, the charing father who does everything to make Kaguya happy, not understanding what actually makes her happy. The children that act as her friends and family. The five nobleman – some not so noble – who woo her and fail. All of those characters are pretty stereotypical, but they do their job well and never wanted to do more. The story unfolds in a more or less predictable way, except for the end which might be a surprise, especially if you are more familiar with western folklore. The beginning was very executeddone: Kaguya's rapid development was portayed beautifully, as was her personality. In the second part of the movie the pacing is a bit slower – not much happens, actually –, but it gets better again toward the ending. Value – 9 "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" is a very famous Japanese fairy tale, and this movie is unique in many ways: It is most likely the most elaborate and expensive adaption of a Japanese fairy tale we have seen in animation movies so far. The artstyle deserves lots of praise and definitely makes the whole experience memorable. The storytelling itself, though there's basically no narration, captures the atmosphere of a classic fairy tale very well. Furthermore Isao Takahata is definitely an interesting director and this is his last work, so fans of his other movies should definitely watch The Tale of Princess Kaguya. Fairy tale adaptions used to be very common in the early age of animated movies, but lately Japan has produced few such works. This might be one of the last attempts to bring a classic tale to the big screens without modernizing it unnecessarily. Enjoyment – 7 I definitely enjoyed the beginning of the movie a lot. It got a bit tedious in the second part – there was too much repetition in the part involving the five wooers, and it was obvious how Kaguya felt from the beginning, so I didn't enjoy this part very much apart from some really well-animated scenes and some nice moments. The last part of the movie gets better, though – especially the little dreamlike romance scene towards the end was fantastic. Overall I enjoyed this movie, but it is very long (140+ minutes) and it definitely would not have hurt to remove or shorten a couple of scenes. Final verdict: Watch this movie if you want to see a well-animated, well-told classic Japanese fairy tale. The movie is beautiful in many ways, but don't expect a complex story, a typical Ghibli movie, a typical Takahata movie (what's that, anyway. or a typical anime movie at all. The emotional reaction you will feel will very much depend on how much you can sympathize with Kaguya. Though her emotions are very well depicted, there is a natural distance between the watcher and the fairy-tale characters, so even though there are heart-warming and sad scenes, they might not leave a huge impact on you.
I really hope it's good. It seems like every time there's a new animation studio they always destroy their chance at making it big against Disney & Co. by cashing in on big name actors, pop songs, immature jokes, and pop culture references. Companies tend to hold THEMSELVES back.

I love anime. I own several anime DVDs. This will not be one that I buy. It has one really terrific thing going for it: the story. The story is excellent, compelling and fascinating. But that's all that's wonderful about it.
I did not like the artwork a single bit. I hope it doesn't start some sort of new faddish trend in anime. I believe they used the drybrush technique. That technique has it's place in the art world but I don't care for it in anime. This anime looks like it was drawn with chalk on rough paper by children. Very few outlines are closed and few if any areas are completely colored.
All the voices are OK except for James Caan who, with his harsh Bronx accent is completely inappropriate in any anime. I like his work but not here.

For the 1987 film, see Princess from the Moon. Discovery of Princess Kaguya (depiction from the Edo period, late 17th century) The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter ( 竹取物語, Taketori Monogatari) is a 10th-century Japanese monogatari (fictional prose narrative) containing Japanese folklore. It is considered the oldest extant Japanese prose narrative [1] 2] although the oldest manuscript dates to 1592. [3] The tale is also known as The Tale of Princess Kaguya ( かぐや姫の物語, Kaguya-hime no Monogatari) after its protagonist. [4] It primarily details the life of a mysterious girl called Kaguya, who was discovered as a baby inside the stalk of a glowing bamboo plant. Narrative [ edit] Taketori no Okina takes Kaguya-hime to his home, Drawn by Tosa Hiromichi, c. 1600 One day, while walking in the bamboo forest, an old, childless bamboo cutter called Taketori no Okina ( 竹取翁, the Old Man who Harvests Bamboo" came across a mysterious, shining stalk of bamboo. After cutting it open, he found inside it an infant the size of his thumb. He rejoiced to find such a beautiful girl and took her home. He and his wife raised her as their own child and named her Kaguya-hime (かぐや姫 accurately, Nayotake no Kaguya-hime, Shining princess of the supple bamboo. Thereafter, Taketori no Okina found that whenever he cut down a stalk of bamboo, inside would be a small nugget of gold. Soon he became rich. Kaguya-hime grew from a small baby into a woman of ordinary size and extraordinary beauty. At first, Taketori no Okina tried to keep her away from outsiders, but over time the news of her beauty spread. Eventually, five princes came to Taketori no Okina's residence to ask for the beautiful Kaguya-hime's hand in marriage. The princes eventually persuaded Taketori no Okina to tell a reluctant Kaguya-hime to choose from among them. Kaguya-hime concocted impossible tasks for the princes, agreeing to marry the one who managed to bring her his specified item. That night, Taketori no Okina told the five princes what each must bring. The first was told to bring her the stone begging bowl of the Buddha Shakyamuni from India, the second a jeweled branch from the mythical island of Hōrai, 5] the third the legendary robe of the fire-rat of China, the fourth a colored jewel from a dragon 's neck, and the final prince a cowry shell born of swallows. Realizing that it was an impossible task, the first prince returned with an expensive stone bowl, hoping that Kaguya-hime would believe it to be real, but after noticing that the bowl did not glow with holy light, Kaguya-hime saw through his deception. Likewise, two other princes attempted to deceive her with fakes, but also failed. The fourth gave up after encountering a storm, while the final prince lost his life (severely injured in some versions) in his attempt. After this, the Emperor of Japan, Mikado, came to see the strangely beautiful Kaguya-hime and, upon falling in love, asked her to marry him. Although he was not subjected to the impossible trials that had thwarted the princes, Kaguya-hime rejected his request for marriage as well, telling him that she was not of his country and thus could not go to the palace with him. She stayed in contact with the Emperor, but continued to rebuff his requests and marriage proposals. That summer, whenever Kaguya-hime saw the full moon, her eyes filled with tears. Though her adoptive parents worried greatly and questioned her, she was unable to tell them what was wrong. Her behaviour became increasingly erratic until she revealed that she was not of this world and must return to her people on the Moon. In some versions of this tale, it is said that she was sent to the Earth, where she would inevitably form material attachment, as a temporary punishment for some crime, while in others, she was sent to Earth for her own safety during a celestial war. The gold that Taketori no Okina had been finding had in fact been a stipend from the people of the Moon, sent down to pay for Kaguya-hime's upkeep. Kaguya-hime goes back to the Moon As the day of her return approached, the Emperor sent many guards around her house to protect her from the Moon people, but when an embassy of "Heavenly Beings" arrived at the door of Taketori no Okina's house, the guards were blinded by a strange light. Kaguya-hime announced that, though she loved her many friends on Earth, she must return with the Moon people to her true home. She wrote sad notes of apology to her parents and to the Emperor, then gave her parents her own robe as a memento. She then took a little of the elixir of life, attached it to her letter to the Emperor, and gave it to a guard officer. As she handed it to him, her feather robe was placed on her shoulders, and all of her sadness and compassion for the people of the Earth were apparently forgotten. The heavenly entourage took Kaguya-hime back to Tsuki no Miyako (月の都; lit. "the Capital of the Moon. leaving her earthly foster parents in tears. The parents became very sad and were soon put to bed sick. The officer returned to the Emperor with the items Kaguya-hime had given him as her last mortal act, and reported what had happened. The Emperor read her letter and was overcome with sadness. He asked his servants, Which mountain is the closest place to Heaven. to which one replied the Great Mountain of Suruga Province. The Emperor ordered his men to take the letter to the summit of the mountain and burn it, in the hope that his message would reach the distant princess. The men were also commanded to burn the elixir of immortality since the Emperor did not wish to live forever without being able to see her. The legend has it that the word immortality, 不死 ( fushi) became the name of the mountain, Mount Fuji. It is also said that the kanji for the mountain, 富士山 (literally "Mountain Abounding with Warriors. are derived from the Emperor's army ascending the slopes of the mountain to carry out his order. It is said that the smoke from the burning still rises to this day. (In the past, Mount Fuji was much more volcanically active and therefore produced more smoke. ) Literary connections [ edit] Elements of the tale were drawn from earlier stories. The protagonist Taketori no Okina, given by name, appears in the earlier poetry collection Man'yōshū (c. 759; poem# 3791. In it, he meets a group of women to whom he recites a poem. This indicates that there previously existed an image or tale revolving around a bamboo cutter and celestial or mystical women. [6] 7] A similar retelling of the tale appears in the c. 12th century Konjaku Monogatarishū (volume 31, chapter 33) although their relation is under debate. [8] Banzhu Guniang [ edit] In 1957, Jinyu Fenghuang (金玉鳳凰) a Chinese book of Tibetan tales, was published. [9] In early 1970s, Japanese literary researchers became aware that "Banzhu Guniang" 班竹姑娘) one of the tales in the book, had certain similarities with The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. [10] 11] Initially, many researchers thought that "Banzhu Guniang" must be related to Tale of Bamboo Cutter, although some were skeptical. In 1980s, studies showed that the relationship is not as simple as initially thought. Okutsu provides extensive review of the research, and notes that the book Jinyu Fenghuang was intended to be for children, and as such, the editor took some liberties in adapting the tales. No other compilation of Tibetan tales contains the story. [12] A Tibet-born person wrote that he did not know the story. [13] A researcher went to Sichuan and found that, apart from those who had already read "Jinyu Fenghuang" local researchers in Chengdu did not know the story. [14] Tibetan informants in Ngawa Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture did not know the story either. [14] Legacy [ edit] The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter has been identified as proto- science fiction. Some of its science fiction plot elements include Kaguya-hime being a princess from the Moon who is sent to Earth for safety during a celestial war, an extraterrestrial being raised by a human on Earth, and her being taken back to the Moon by her real extraterrestrial family. A manuscript illustration also depicts a round flying machine that resembles a flying saucer.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 's DVD and Blu-ray Combo Pack came out on Friday and this scared away the competition. This is also partially due to the fact that I'm dealing with what is clearly an alien disease. Friends came over on Saturday and one of them must have been infectious, because on Sunday my mouth tasted like salt. I Googled reasons why that could happen (never a good idea) and it turns out it could be from an infection. I used some Listerine to get rid of whatever bacteria was causing it, but the salty taste overpowered the flavor of the Listerine. That tells you how strong the salty taste was. The next day, the salty taste wasn't as bad, but my throat was killing me. I figured it was Strep throat. The next day, the salty taste was gone, my throat felt fine, but my sinuses were so clogged that the sinus pressure was making my teeth hurt. The next day, the sinus pressure was down dramatically, but I had sneezing attacks ever few minutes, including while I was trying to sleep. Today, the sneezing isn't as bad, but I have a bad cough and it feels like I broke a rib while sneezing. Clearly this isn't a normal cold, but instead I believe I am the subject of an alien experiment. Regardless, the best new release of the week is The Legend of Korra: Book Four: Balance and the DVD or Blu-ray is absolutely worth picking up. However, the best release on this week's list is The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. I finally got to the review of the Blu-ray Combo Pack and it is the Pick of the Week. More... March 9th, 2015 The Tale of the Princess Kaguya earned 100% positive reviews and picked up an Oscar nomination. On the other hand, it only managed 1. 5 million in limited release, so it wasn't a big enough film to win on Oscar night. Should the film earn a wider audience? Or is the movie aimed more at critics than the average moviegoer? March 8th, 2015 The top four films on this week's Blu-ray sales chart and nine of the top twenty were new releases. The number one release was Game of Thrones: Season Four, which sold 286, 000 units and generated 9. 98 million in sales. Its opening week Blu-ray share was 54% which is incredible compared to the average TV on DVD release. Then again, Game of Thrones isn't the average TV show. March 4th, 2015 The winners of our You Need to Focus to Win contest were determined and the entrants with the closest predictions for Focus opening weekend were... February 23rd, 2015 Big Hero 6 just won the Oscar, which is great timing, as it hits the home market this Tuesday. Many were surprised that the film won. Should they be? Is this really the best animated film of the year? February 20th, 2015 Next weekend, Focus will dominate The Lazarus Effect at the box office. As such, it is the only real choice for the target film in this week's box office prediction contest. In order to win, one must simply predict the opening weekend box office number for Focus. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday) without going over, will win a copy of The Tale of the Princess Kaguya on Blu-ray. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday) without going under, will also win a copy of The Tale of the Princess Kaguya on Blu-ray. Entries must be received by 10 a. m., Pacific Time on Friday to be eligible, so don't delay! February 19th, 2015 The winners of our Sticky Situation contest were determined and the entrants with the closest predictions for Fifty Shades of Grey opening weekend were... February 16th, 2015 This is the best week on the home market in a long time. Game of Thrones is one of the best TV shows on at the moment, if not the best TV show, and its DVD and Blu-ray is Pick of the Week material. Additionally, there are a few potential Oscar winners hitting the home market this week as well. On the down side, there is not a lot of depth. Birdman, The Tale of the Princess Kaguya, and The Theory of Everything are all up for Oscars next weekend and all of them are worth picking up. Life Itself was snubbed by Oscar voters, but it too is a must have. However, in the end, I went with Game of Thrones for Pick of the Week. February 4th, 2015 With our annual Oscar Prediction contest underway, now is the best time to look at the nominees and try and figure out who the favorites are and which films should just feel honored to be nominated. Today we look at Best Feature-Length Animated Film. For a while, it looked like The LEGO Movie would be the favorite to win the Oscar, then it wasn't even nominated. Because of that, it is a little hard to know what will happen going forward. There is one film that looks to be the favorite, but that was true before the nominations and nearly every expert got it wrong before. January 17th, 2015 The Oscar nominations were announced early in the morning, when all sensible people were asleep. There were some surprises, as well as some results that would have been surprises had it not been for the previous Awards Season nominations. Seventeen films earned two or more nods, led by Birdman and The Grand Budapest Hotel, both of which picked up nine nominations, while The Imitation Game was right behind with eight. October 21st, 2014 Birdman debuted in first place on the Per Theater Chart with an amazing average of 106, 099. This is the best per theater average since The Grand Budapest Hotel opened with just over 200, 000 for its per theater average. It wasn't the only film in the 10, 000 club, as Dear White People opened with an average of 31, 633 in eleven theaters. The Tale of Princess Kaguya was surprisingly strong during its opening weekend earning an average of 18, 305 in three theaters. God the Father earned 15, 037 in one theater. The final film in the 10, 000 club was Listen Up Philip, which earned an average of 11, 642 in two theaters. Diplomacy might have made it in the 10, 000 club if it opened on Friday. However, it opened on Wednesday earning 8, 518 in one theater over the weekend for a total opening of 12, 750. October 19th, 2014 Fury will top the box office chart this weekend with a solid, but unspectacular, 23. 5 million, according to Sony s Sunday morning estimate. Pre-weekend projections had the film closer to 30 million, and with an 80 million price tag, and Brad Pitt starring, the film is really underperforming at this point. By way of comparison, Gone Girl opened with 37. 5 million three weeks ago. Fury will need really good legs, or a really strong performance overseas, to post a profit. October 17th, 2014 It's an excellent week for limited releases with several films earning overwhelmingly positive reviews. This includes a couple that are also earning really loud buzz. Of these, Birdman is probably going to win the weekend race on the Per Theater Chart, while Dear White People should also be a hit. Diplomacy, Housebound, The Tale of Princess Kaguya, and others also deserve to find audiences, but not all will do so for various reasons (wrong genre, opening in Video on Demand, etc. Compare this performance with other movies… Domestic Cumulative Box Office Records Record Rank Revenue All Time Domestic Animated Box Office (Rank 301-400) 309 All Time Domestic Inflation Adjusted Box Office (Rank 7, 501-7, 600) 7, 534 All Time Domestic Non-Sequel Box Office (Rank 7, 101-7, 200) 7, 108 Top 2014 Movies at the Domestic Box Office (Rank 101-200) 194 All Time Domestic Inflation Adjusted Box Office for Limited Release Movies (Rank 1, 301-1, 400) 1, 388 Top 2014 Limited Release Movies at the Domestic Box Office 62 All Time Domestic Box Office for Original Screenplay Movies (Rank 3, 901-4, 000) 3, 962 All Time Domestic Box Office for Hand Animation Movies (Rank 101-200) 112 All Time Domestic Box Office for Fantasy Movies (Rank 501-600) 569 All Time Domestic Box Office for Drama Movies (Rank 2, 001-2, 100) 2, 013 All Time Domestic Box Office for PG Movies (Rank 1, 201-1, 300) 1, 208 All Time Domestic Box Office for GKIDS Movies 4 Weekend Box Office Performance Date Rank Gross% Change Theaters Per Theater Total Gross Week 46 54, 915 1 Oct 24, 2014 43 65, 052 +18% 20 3, 253 142, 532 2 Oct 31, 2014 42 70, 480 +8% 27 2, 610 243, 190 Nov 7, 2014 41 54, 290 -23% 28 1, 939 335, 325 Nov 14, 2014 49 30, 391 -44% 26 1, 169 408, 696 5 Nov 21, 2014 47 19, 900 -35% 21 948 442, 650 6 Dec 5, 2014 51 18, 526 15 1, 235 8 Dec 12, 2014 48 18, 694 +1% 19 984 533, 394 9 Dec 19, 2014 50 9, 617 -49% 11 874 557, 168 10 Dec 26, 2014 54 11, 608 +21% 1, 451 575, 647 Jan 2, 2015 57 9, 940 -14% 904 595, 387 12 Jan 9, 2015 70 3, 929 -60% 655 602, 968 13 Jan 16, 2015 72 3, 237 -18% 540 608, 960 14 Jan 23, 2015 73 6, 109 +89% 764 632, 548 Jan 30, 2015 71 6, 445 +6% 1, 074 650, 694 16 Feb 6, 2015 86 2, 508 -61% 627 656, 476 17 Feb 13, 2015 7, 999 +219% 1, 000 665, 157 18 Feb 20, 2015 65 5, 956 -26% 596 676, 468 Feb 27, 2015 81 2, 936 -51% 7 419 681, 072 Mar 6, 2015 80 3, 071 +5% 768 695, 929 Daily Box Office Performance Date Rank Gross%YD%LW Theaters Per Theater Total Gross Days -

The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published in Home Media Magazine. For example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1, 500, 000 units in total, we will estimate 15, 000 units were sold of that title. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey. We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by the Digital Entertainment Group. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates. Because sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles. Full financial estimates for this film, including domestic and international box office, video sales, video rentals, TV and ancillary revenue are available through our research services.

Sommige scènes behoren tot het mooiste wat ik ooit in een animatiefilm heb gezien. De stijl deed een beetje denken aan The Snowman (dat viel zelfs mijn dochter van drie op, die er ook van genoten heeft. Zoals hierboven al opgemerkt: de episode met de vijf aanbidders duurt wat lang en het einde, met een stel boeddha's die naar de maan vliegen (of zoiets) grenst aan kitsch, maar verder: fantastisch. Een absolute aanrader. Een van de absoluut mooiste dingen die ik al ooit zag. Herculaas schreef: Schitterend. Een absolute aanrader. Ik ben het trouwens wel eens over dat einde. Dat was zo'n moment waarop ik vreesde 'verpest het nu niet. maar het viel al bij al nog mee, en neigde eerder naar een mooi gepast einde (maar de grens met 'erover' was misschien wel wat dunnetjes. Maar zo zal het in het oorspronkelijke sprookje ook zijn geweest I presume. Auke Briek schreef: Helaas valt ook deze film weer tegen. En dat terwijl het op punten een briljante film is. Op visueel vlak is het bij vlagen verbluffend mooi, maar op verhalend vlak laat Takahata een aantal cruciale steken vallen. Het begin was ongelofelijk sterk in zn eenvoud. Het beeld van de prinses in de bamboe had met heel weinig middelen enorm veel zeggingskracht. Takahata laat prachtige animaties van de natuur zien, met losse penstreken en subtiele aquarelkleuren, wat een krachtig vrijheidsgevoel teweeg bracht, dat eigenlijk constant aanwezig was. Misschien iets te constant en mischien was het iets te veel van het goede: het leek niet geheel in balans. Het tweede stuk, waar Kaguya meer in een keurslijf werd gedruk, had juist veel te weinig vrijheidsgevoel: dit stuk voelde statisch en beknottend aan, zowel visueel als narratief. Dat strookte weliswaar perfect met wat Kaguya overkwam, maar dit zorgde er helaas wel voor dat de film langzamerhand begon in te kakken. De kortstondige uitbarstingen van het vrijheidgevoel midden in het statische gedeelte waren dan wel weer adembenemend mooi. Deze uitbarstigen behoren tot het allerbeste wat ik op animatiegebied heb gezien. Hoe onzuiverder en woester de lijntjes en kleurtjes des te intenser het gevoel. Echter, zoals Onderhond al aanhaalde zijn de scenes met de 5 kerels die om de hand van Kaguya dingen veel te repetetief. Hier lijkt een definitieve kentering te onstaan, waarbij het statische en levensloze aspect van het verhaal zijn tol gaat opeisen en het verhaal eigenlijk een beetje saai wordt. Daarna komt het ook niet meer goed met het verhaal. Het stuk met de keizer, de vertwijfeling en het gedoe over de terugkeer naar de maan overtuigt allemaal niet. Tot overmaat van ramp is het einde ook nog eens een enorme domper: Boeddha komt op zn wolkje langs om even alle banden met het aardse leven door te snijden, en daarbij tevens alle mooie herinneringen te verwoesten: wat een lul! Toch nog 4* voor het visuele. Dat moet dan waarschijnlijk toch de hoogst gewaardeerde 'tegenvallende' film ooit zijn voor jou Er zat natuurlijk heel wat (Boeddhistische) filsofie in die eindscène, dusja... Daar moet je dan wel tegenkunnen, anders kan het inderdaad een wat vervelend einde zijn. normaal gesproken hou ik niet van animatie films die slecht zijn getekend het leek echt net of een kind van 3 dit had getekend maar goed het verhaal is prachtig het tekenwerk niet zo Rico120 schreef: normaal gesproken hou ik niet van animatie films die slecht zijn getekend Ik daag je uit de coverhoes na te tekenen. bro schreef: quote) hoezo? Omdat de tekenstijl complexer is dan ze oogt. Dat maakt volgens onderhond maatstaven toch niet zo veel uit als hij zegt dat hij het niet mooi vindt? Ik antwoord enkel op de vraag, die gericht was op kunde (kind van 3) en niet op esthetiek. Ik zeg nergens dat hij het moet mooi vinden omdat het complexer is dan het op het eerste gezicht oogt, toch? Ten eerste was die vraag niet aan jou gericht. Mijn vraag wel, waar je niet op antwoordt. Want hij zegt dat het oogt alsof een driejarige het heeft getekend. Dat is de reden dat hij het niet mooi vindt. Dan maakt het volgens jouw visie toch niet meer uit dat het complex is? Dat soort argumenten haal jij immer je schouders voor op als het bijvoorbeeld gaat om het camerawerk in de films van Orson Welles of Alfred Hitchcock. Inderdaad niet, maar ik zie niet in waarom dit relevant is. We zitten op een publiek discussieforum en ik antwoord gewoon op een vraag die publiekelijk gesteld werd. Als iemand wil dat anderen zich niet bemoeien met een vraag kan die altijd via een PM gesteld worden. mister blonde schreef: Want hij zegt dat het oogt alsof een driejarige het heeft getekend. En ik zeg dat iemand met een oog voor animatie/tekenkunst meteen ziet dat dit niet het geval is. Hij mag het absoluut niet mooi vinden, los van wat de complexiteit is. Ik heb daar geen enkel probleem mee. Ik begrijp alleen de reden van die vraag niet. Je weet wat ik daarover vind en ik verbied hem ook nergens het niet mooi te vinden omdat het complexer is dan het oogt. Ik wijs hem gewoon op het feit dat de stijl complexer is dan wat een driejarige (charge included) op papier zet. En ik wijs jou erop dat het vreemd is dat uitgerekend jij het bent die hem erop moet wijzen. Het is nogmaals het type argument waar jij je neus voor ophaalt bij bijvoorbeeld oude films. Ok. Ik zie niet wat daar zo vreemd aan is maar da's verder ook niet zo belangrijk. Herzien, en wederom prachtig. Helaas in twee etappes moeten kijken met een week ertussen, dus ik wacht nog met een eventuele ophoging tot een volgende herziening in een enkele etappe. Nochtans zit de film erg dicht tegen ophoging aan! Black Math schreef: Het verhaal is natuurlijk een vrij typisch sprookjesverhaal, waarbij de logica van van het einde mij een beetje ontgaat. Daar had ik nu veel minder problemen mee, en eigenlijk ligt het behoorlijk voor de hand: Duidelijk een metafoor voor de dood met als boodschap het leven te leven voordat het te laat is. Het vergeten van haar herinneringen doet me denken aan nirvana in het Boeddhisme: het "uitdoven. Een mooie drama/animatie/fantasie film... Mooi verhaal... Mooi gemaakte animatie... Prima achtergrond geluid/muziek (Dolby Digital... Mooi HD kwaliteit breedbeeld... Hele fraaie Ghibli. De tekenstijl is wel even wennen, maar dat gebeurt wel snel. Het verhaal is vooral aan het begin erg pakkend. De verwijzingen uit de film naar het levenscyclus zijn erg fraai gedaan, prachtige liedjes inbegrepen. Het tweede deel vind ik in tegenstelling tot velen hier kwalitatief niet minder, maar is wel duidelijk een vertelsprookjeselement ( de princes vraagt de vijf prinsen om vijf bijzondere voorwerpen. Ook het einde is uit het sprookje gegrepen, wat in dit plaatje uit het sprookje herkenbaar is. Opvallend trouwens dat daar waar de film hier eindigt je in het echte sprookje pas halverwege zit. Ik zie dus mogelijkheden voor een vervolg, want na haar vertrek gaat de keizer zoals hij ook beloofde door met het proberen te krijgen van de princes, net zolang tot hij haar weet te vangen. Het verhaal, en de princes, wordt na haar vertrek naar de maan juist een stuk duisterder. Haar gevangenschap komt in deze film volgens mij wel terug, maar dan anders, in de vorm van haar vader die haar in zijn kasteel als het ware opsluit. Erg mooie film, een ruime 3, 5. Mooie film, deze ode aan de natuur en het eenvoudige leven. Getekend in een andere tekenstijl dan andere Ghiblis die ik ken, maar kon het zeer waarderen. Met name de "slordige" scenes, bijvoorbeeld dat ze wegrent en de omgeving niet meer is dan zwarte strepen, dat waren de momenten dat ik er echt goed voor ging zitten. Maar jammer genoeg zitten dat soort scenes er te weinig in, en was het toch soms langdradig en wat saai. met name tegen het eind begon m'n aandacht te verslappen. De korte (gedroomde. hereniging met haar vroegere buurjongen was wel weer een aardige scene, maar het sleepte een beetje naar het eind. Ik snap ook nog niet helemaal wat nou de bedoeling was van het goud en de dure kleren die werden nagezonden, en wat door de bamboesnijder werd opgevat als teken dat het meisje als een prinses moest opgroeien- of as het juist de bedoeling van het maanvolk dat ze zich dan zou gaan vervelen en weer terug zou willen? lezertje Prachtige Japanse animatiefilm, de mooiste die ik ooit gezien heb en dat komt niet alleen door de schetsmatige tekenstijl die zo verschilt van al dat andere werk dat uit de Ghibli studios komt. Hert sublieme mooie sprookje wat aan het scenario ten grondslag lag is daar absoluut debet aan. Een verademing ten al die moraliserende Amerikaanse computeranimaties. Ik heb de film geprobeerd te kijken maar hier kon ik niks mee: ik zag slechts een kinderfilm waarin - althans het eerste half uur - niets gebeurde of anderszins mijn aandacht kon vasthouden, zodat ik na het eerste half uur de poging maar heb gestaakt. Mooi sprookje waarvan de tekenstijl even wennen is na al die drukke animatiefilms van de laatste jaren, maar een verademing is het wel. Het is sowieso een apart verhaal, alleen wanneer de prinses de vijf prinsen vraagt om vijf bijzondere voorwerpen te zoeken, krijg je een typisch sprookje voorgeschoteld. Dat de film een ode is aan de natuur en eenvoudig leven lijkt me heel duidelijk. Maar naar het einde toe laat de film je toch wel achter met wat vragen. Het slot is heel apart en bizar. De bedoeling van heel de opzet is dan ook een raadsel. 7/10 Met The Tale of Princess Kaguya was het weer eens tijd voor een Ghibli; helaas moet ik wel melden dat het niet bepaald mijn film was. Schijnbaar is dit een verfilming van een klassiek Japans volksverhaal/sprookje. Het eerste dat opviel was de animatie, het ziet er allemaal wat simplistischer uit dan de andere Ghibli's die ik gezien heb. Na een tijdje begint dat wel te wennen, toch vond ik het uiteindelijk gewoon niet zo mooi. Echt storend was het daarentegen niet, maar ik kan me toch niet echt vinden in de hosannaverhalen over de animatie. Het verhaal van Kaguya begint nog wel aardig, wanneer de prinses uit een bamboescheut ontspruit, en in een noodtempo opgroeit. Het onbezorgde leven op het platteland waarbij ze rondstruint met de lokale jeugd, de natuur ontdekt en liefhebbende (pleeg- ouders heeft is best de moeite waard, en het eerste uur was nog best veelbelovend. Helaas ging het wat mij betreft rap bergafwaarts zodra Kaguya naar het paleis gaat, en in het keurslijf van een prinses komt te zitten, bijzonder tegen haar zin. Het volgende uur sprookjesgeneuzel over paleismanieren, hoe een prinses zich hoort te gedragen, de vijf edelen die dingen naar haar hand, de keizer, het werd behoorlijk saai en langdradig. Zelfs de momenten waarop de prinses rebelleert, de natuur ingaat en terugwil naar het simpele leven kunnen het wat mij betreft niet redden. En zo boeiend was die prinses Kaguya als hoofdpersonage uberhaupt al niet. Op het einde begint het nog behoorlijk vaag en bovennatuurlijk te worden als Boeddha en consorten de prinses komen halen, best interessant al mis ik wellicht allerlei boeddhistische of traditioneel-Japanse symboliek. Tegen die tijd was het voor mij al te laat om de film nog te redden, daarvoor had ik al met teveel pijn en tegenzin het uur daarvoor doorgeworsteld. Ik blijf steken op een 2. 5. Eindelijk deze Ghibli gevonden. Toch nog getwijfeld, omdat het me eerder deed denken aan 'My Neighbors the Yamadas' dan aan die andere film van Isao Takahata: Hotaru no Haka. Onterecht, want waar Gibli al scoort met mooie beelden, leuke figuren en een deftig verhaal, gaat het hier nog verder door ook creatief te spelen met de beelden. Op het eerste oog simpel getekend in een soort waterverf, om er echt een sprookje van te maken. Iets wat je (op een geheel andere manier) nog wel bij de oude Disneyfilms ziet. Belangrijk is vooral dat - ik ken het originele sprookje niet - dat de sfeer en verhaal ook geheel sprookjesachtig blijft. Gewoonlijk wil men dat ietwat pimpen. Een sterke film, al zakt het hier en daar ietsje weg en mis ik dat ultieme vuurwerk op het einde. Maar verder wel één van de betere Ghibli. Nu ik er al zoveel gezien heb, ben ik blij toch nog even verrast te worden. Erg lief, mooi en rustgevend om te kijken. Dat eerste deel met Kaguya als baby had van mij zowat een film op zichzelf mogen zijn, zo schattig. Het middenstuk is wat meer een typisch sprookjesverhaal, met die vijf aanbidders en hun geschenken. Tegen het einde wordt het ook emotioneel en betoverend, hoewel ik niet eens helemaal vat waar het nou precies om ging. Ik had er wel een bepaald gevoel bij (zat me in ieder geval voor te nemen om wat vaker de natuur in te gaan) maar kan het verder niet echt in woorden vatten. Waarschijnlijk moet je daarvoor wat meer kennis hebben van Japanse folklore en het boeddhisme (dacht in ieder geval Boeddha te zien op die wolk. Desondanks een erg mooie film, mede door de wat meer minimalistische (maar erg effectieve) tekenstijl, sfeervolle muziek, Japanse sereniteit en alle schattige blote baby'tjes. 4* kan misschien nog hoger worden. Ja, had ik al begrepen ja. Jammer dat er niet echt een duiding bij staat (misschien wel elders te vinden. Bijvoorbeeld wat de bedoeling was van dat snelle opgroeien als baby. Zelf wil ik denken dat dat laat zien hoe snel je kindertijd voorbij gaat, en dat je als volwassene uiteindelijk met onvervulde verlangens zit als het eenmaal te laat is ( zoals het te laat was voor Kaguya toen ze eenmaal terug moest. Niet iets voor mij. Ondanks de Studio Ghibli ongetwijfeld mooie dingen neer kan zetten lag deze animatie me simpelweg gewoon niet. Zowel de animatie als het verhaal lag me niet, maar ondanks dat heeft deze film overduidelijk nog een hoop magie. Het verhaal is opzicht leuk bedacht, maar vaak nogal flauw uitgewerkt waarmee de 137 minuten soms wel heel lang leken te duren. Sowieso is het al een hele flinke speelduur, maar de enige echte scenes die me zowel mee wisten te trekken was het slot. En dat maakt het hem ook een voldoende, het einde was krachtig, maar het middenstuk lag me niet. Flauwe personages hier en daar waar ik geen sympathie mee kon hebben, en al helemaal geen sympathie voor de prinses. Zo wist het dus de overige 2 uur geen enkel moment emotioneel mee te trekken. Voor de rest is het een mierzoete animatiefilm. De animatie is wel mooi, maar niet echt mijn ding. Geef me dan maar de kleurenexplosies, extra punten voor het einde. Bij herziening ontzettend genoten; van de prachtige tekenstijl en ook het mooi klassieke sprookje. Behoort tot de beste animatie die ik zag/ken, pure magie. Dus een hele punt omhoog naar de volle mep Prachtig Japans sprookje uit de tiende eeuw van Tahahata. Zeer interessant om de Japanse folklore en cultuur te ontdekken mede de klassenmaatschappij die Japan toen was. Een sprookje ook waarin je de elementen herkent die ook bij ons gekend zijn: het mooiste meisje dat uitgroeit tot een prinses en waarvoor vele hooggeplaatste gegadigden zijn. Om haar te veroveren moeten ze een haast onmogelijke opdracht vervullen. De tekenstijl is werkelijk prachtig en sluit goed aan bij de sfeer van de film. Toen de prinses even wegliep had je van die chaotische strepen. Eveneens mooi weergegeven. Zeer fijne tekentechniek en zachte rustgevende kleurschakeringen. Het platteland met zijn bossen en vele dieren, de Japanse klederdracht? Het ziet er allemaal piekfijn uit. Mooi! Ontroerend ook bij momenten waarbij het je tot nadenken dwingt dat het leven van het meisje er anders kon uitgezien hebben wanneer de goedbedoelde ouders niet zo hebzuchtig zouden geweest zijn. Wat zou er van haar gekomen zijn mocht ze op het platteland gebleven zijn bij haar vriendje ipv het opgelegde strakke uitgestippelde keurslijf waarin ze terecht kwam? Wederom een geslaagde Studio Ghibli dat me telkens weer verbaast!
