Talk:Scary Truth Behind "My Neighbor Totoro"/@comment-97.125.123.122-20150315200533

Okay so ive been reading the comments and have a few things to resolve your doubts.


 * adressing the grandmother seeing the sprites when she was younger (indeed the soot sprites are supposedly seen when you are close to death) She was very ill when she was younger. Also she is an old woman now and close to death which is why she can see the kids. The sandals are the same to one of the pairs she was wearing. She wears multiple throughout the film. Studio Ghibli is known for having deeper meanings within their films. In Asia it is commonly beleived that this is in fact about the Sayama case.

Great Thanks! ~Ming
