ALREET PALS, tonight we& #39;re gonna watch Howl& #39;s Moving Castle for #YubiViews!

Now some of ye may know that I actually lived in Japan for a while and hold 2 whole degrees in Japanese language, a bachelors and a masters! I& #39;ve seen a lot of Ghibli movie, but never this one.

1/-
I don& #39;t really have a good reason why? But I& #39;ve been since told it& #39;s also a book??? No idea what happens in it. I guess there& #39;s a guy called Howl (excellent name). I guess his castle moved. Did he move with his castle? Are we castle hunting? Is this all -

2/- #YubiViews
an extended metaphor for human destruction of wildlife and the rapidly diminishing experience of childhood in an increasingly lonely and disconnected world, Miyazaki-san???

Also if the castle moves rapidly and unpredictably, i will be scared of it. Just saying.

3/- #YubiViews
I do know the music is most likely going to be a bop though, and I might cry at it.

LET& #39;S GO!

4/- #YubiViews
i am immediately Mildly Disturbed by its movements, but not totally terrified.

5/- #YubiViews
Hauru no ugoku shiro! Howl& #39;s Moving Castle!

6/- #YubiViews
Ooh! We& #39;ve got a main character! Sophie! And she& #39;s a milliner! Okay so we& #39;ve got soldiers, we& #39;ve got people who find the castle totally acceptable...

I always love the blend of Edwardian style with like, steampunk-esque fantasy ;w;

7/- #YubiViews
oh jeez we& #39;ve got a big ole military parade huh

lots of cheering and uniforms and crowds waving flags.

8/- #YubiViews

16/- #YubiViews
Deeply adore the choice to keep & #39;onee-chan& #39; as Sophie in the subtitles, even if views will hear people aren& #39;t saying Sophie. Good translation choice IMO!!!

17/- #YubiViews
I SWEAR TO GOD IF HOWL IS BEAUTIFUL AND SAD AND LONELY AND ALSO A BIT OF A BASTARD I& #39;M GOING TO SUE EVERY ONE OF YOU WHO VOTED FOR THIS. I DON& #39;T NEED ANY MORE ANIME BOYS IN MY HEART.
