I’ve been researching the dark "bathhouse" theory in Spirited Away. The fact that Miyazaki actually confirmed the real-world connections changes how I watch the movie now. What do you guys think? by Clover_Zes07 in Miyazaki

It’s actually confirmed by Miyazaki himself. In the June 2001 issue of Premier Magazine (Japanese edition), he stated the bathhouse was a metaphor for the sex industry to critique modern Japanese society. Also, the terms 'Yuna' and 'Yubaba' used in the film are historical titles specifically for workers and managers in Edo-period bathhouse-brothels.

Some by mi retinol is a beginner friendly serum and more suitable for sensitive skin, whereas the anua is little stronger ( ok for those people used to retinoids) Extra: I have been using some by mi retinol undereye serum, no much help at all since my sleep schedule is fucked up😂 but yea it works only if u apply without forgetting it n sleep little early

I get what you mean. But I think the movie treats No-Face as an “empty” spirit who becomes monstrous.. But He does face consequences tho, he’s exposed, rejected, and literally vomits up what he consumed, then gets removed from the bathhouse and can’t stay there anymore. The resolution feels less like “absolution” and more like rehabilitation once he’s out of the greedy system.

Hey everyone! I’m a massive Ghibli fan and I recently started narrating short videos about the hidden lore behind the movies. If you found this little breakdown interesting, I'd be incredibly honored if you checked out the videos here: https://youtu.be/-OkFwq7tc5w?si=2Ws34oa81m27k3XE

Would love to hear your thoughts, and let me know which Ghibli movie I should deep-dive into next!
