The Japanese concept of "Ma" refers to the space or gap between objects that goes beyond mere physical dimensions. "Ma" represents the interval, pause, or emptiness in space or the relationship between things. It is also about tension and harmony in the environment and the significance of what is left unsaid or unoccupied. In Miyazaki's movies, "ma" is often depicted through quiet moments and atmospheric scenes. These shots establish the film's mood, symbolize themes, affect pacing and rhythm, and provide visual poetry. These moments of "Ma" allow viewers to contemplate, reflect, and feel the emotions conveyed by the characters and their surroundings. Moreover, "Ma" includes shots of nature or empty spaces where characters may not necessarily be present. Highlighting the beauty and significance of the spaces between characters and events adds depth, meaning, and visual richness to the storytelling experience.

kids: our house is haunted. parents: that's so cool!
hell yeah, wrinkled old lady rep. we need more friendly old women with potato faces and warts like storybook witches. the backbone of society, these ladies
Plot Summary: Small Child Bothers Local Wildlife
sacred tree sacred tree sacred tree

Uh-Oh! Inadequate Parental Supervision Detected
(you misplaced your four year old! you're not supposed to do that)
4-year-old: i met a magic forest spirit. dad: oh shit fr?
4-year-old: *angrily hugs sister* missed u bitch
this small child has a smile like a toad. like a really really cute toad. like the cutest toad in all existence. i love her she's perfection please just let this child be happy
rice paddies are so pretty....so back breaking....rice is such a prissy crop
*my crush is stranded in a rainstorm* takethisumbrellait'syoursnowBYE *runs away in panic im so good at flirting*
Giant Chinchilla Learns To Hold Umbrella, Is Fucking Delighted By Experience

Totoro to the rescue!

i admit i initially thought the cat was a creep. alice in wonderland prejudiced me. i have revised my notions of smiling cats
i've decided the cat is a metaphor for the magic of a robust public transport system
MEI'S OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok. ok ok ok. that was magical.
(as a first-time adult viewer i was worried i wouldn't be able to Access the Magic. but i could and i did and it was incredible. that was culture. that was ART. joy distilled into animated form. holy rites of childhood. i understand now. how glorious, this world we grow out of. how full of marvels. i'm going outside to smell grass and sun and get dirt under my fingernails. miraculous.)
