There are no clear lines between good and evil in Spirited Away, as all the characters (except perhaps Chihiro) will exhibit characteristics, true to real life. What sets this animated film apart from most of the popular children’s animated films (such as Disney titles) is that there is no real enemy that the main character has to vanquish. In the world of Spirited Away, everyone is bound by their own words and names. Even Yubaba is bound by the oaths she has made in the past.

This epic tale is a departure from Miyazaki’s other fantasy adventures such as Nausicaa, Laputa, and Mononoke Hime, as it is a fantasy aimed for the 10-year old audience. Written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, Spirited Away is his most imaginative work to date.
