Description
Welcome back to the Midnight Myth as we cross the mighty waters of the Pacific Ocean and travel back to Medieval Japan with the Miyazaki written Studio Ghibli produced masterpiece Princess Mononoke! Listen to us ask the questions, what is Shinto, how does it inform this wonderful movie, and how does it relate to the identity of god killers and industrialists alike? As the forces of modernity threaten the Kami- the ancient spirits, gods and demons of the forest- the cursed prince Ashitaka attempts to negotiate peace between the powerful and compassionate Lady Eboshi and the mysterious and ruthless San.
If there is a perfect story, its likely written by Miyazaki! Check out Verbal Diorama’s Princess Mononoke episode next: https://t.co/22P8jD5n9V
