25:33,600 -- 00:25:35,050

Let me do it.

229

00:
25:37,520 -- 00:25:39,510

Here, this is yours, Mei.

230

00:
25:40,320 -- 00:25:41,890

It's for me!

231

00:
25:42,490 -- 00:25:43,899

Mei, sit down and eat!

232

00:
25:43,900 -- 00:25:45,210

Here.

233

00:
25:46,570 -- 00:25:48,270

Wrap yours.

234

00:
25:51,540 -- 00:25:54,420

Satsuki-chan!

235

00:
25:54,500 -- 00:25:55,789

Uh-oh.

236

00:
25:55,790 -- 00:25:58,740

Y-E-S!

237

00:
26:00,090 -- 00:26:01,919

You made a friend already?

238

00:
26:01,920 -- 00:26:04,339

She called you "Satsuki-chan".

239

00:
26:04,340 -- 00:26:06,210

Yup, that's Micchan.

240

00:
26:08,300 -- 00:26:09,840

Gotta go!

241

00:
26:11,350 -- 00:26:13,050

See ya!

242

00:
26:13,310 -- 00:26:15,280

Have a nice day.

243

00:
26:16,650 -- 00:26:17,849

Morning!

244

00:
26:17,850 -- 00:26:19,479

Morning. Hurry, let's go.

245

00:
26:19,480 -- 00:26:20,320

Yeah.

246

00:
26:32,290 -- 00:26:34,110

Father!

247

00:
26:34,960 -- 00:26:36,749

Do I look all grown up?

248

00:
26:36,750 -- 00:26:37,669

Yes.

249

00:
26:37,670 -- 00:26:39,129

And where might you be going?

250

00:
26:39,130 -- 00:26:41,120

I'm just going out.

251

00:
27:03,230 -- 00:27:05,489

Father, is it lunch yet?

252

00:
27:05,490 -- 00:27:07,730

Eh? Already?

253

00:
27:19,830 -- 00:27:22,490

Father is a florist, okay?

254

00:
27:38,350 -- 00:27:40,130

Tadpoles!

255

00:
27:58,370 -- 00:28:01,240

What? Bottom's gone.

256

00:
28:14,300 -- 00:28:15,960

Gotcha!

257

00:
33:51,310 -- 00:33:54,970

Who are you? A Makkuro Kurosuke?

258

00:
34:22,470 -- 00:34:26,170

Totoro? You're Totoro!

259

00:
34:30,480 -- 00:34:32,920

I bet you're Totoro.

260

00:
34:35,400 -- 00:34:36,860

Totoro.

261

00:
35:44,920 -- 00:35:45,459

See you!

262

00:
35:45,460 -- 00:35:47,120

Okay, catch you later!

263

00:
35:49,060 -- 00:35:49,939

I'm home!

264

00:
35:49,940 -- 00:35:52,809

Hey there. Is it that late already?

265

00:
35:52,810 -- 00:35:54,939

Where's Mei? I'm going over to Micchan's house.

266

00:
35:54,940 -- 00:35:56,529

We haven't eaten yet.

267

00:
35:56,530 -- 00:35:58,109

Isn't she playing in the garden?

268

00:
35:58,110 -- 00:35:59,600

Mei!

269

00:
36:00,610 -- 00:36:02,400

Mei!

270

00:
36:03,580 -- 00:36:04,900

Mei!

271

00:
36:07,830 -- 00:36:09,240

Mei!

272

00:
36:15,460 -- 00:36:19,460

Father, I found Mei's hat.

273

00:
36:34,520 -- 00:36:36,370

Mei, Mei!

274

00:
36:43,570 -- 00:36:46,230

Wake up, Mei!

275

00:
36:47,490 -- 00:36:49,900

You shouldn't sleep here!

276

00:
36:51,620 -- 00:36:52,869

Where's Totoro?

277

00:
36:52,870 -- 00:36:54,249

Totoro?

278

00:
36:54,250 -- 00:36:56,780

Huh? Huh?

279

00:
36:59,130 -- 00:37:00,790

Were you dreaming?

280

00:
37:01,130 -- 00:37:02,929

Totoro was here.

281

00:
37:02,930 -- 00:37:06,380

Totoro? You mean Tororo

that was in the picture book?

282

00:
37:07,140 -- 00:37:13,229

He was all hairy with a big mouth like this.

283

00:
37:13,230 -- 00:37:17,018

There's a tiny one and a little one

284

00:
37:17,019 -- 00:37:20,600

and a huge one like this.

285

00:
37:23,780 -- 00:37:25,190

There you are.

286

00:
37:25,490 -- 00:37:27,460

Hey, how great.

287

00:
37:28,120 -- 00:37:29,539

Just like a secret hideaway.

288

00:
37:29,540 -- 00:37:32,959

Father! Mei says she met Totoro here.

289

00:
37:32,960 -- 00:37:34,590

Totoro?

290

00:
37:34,750 -- 00:37:36,200

Over here!

291

00:
37:44,260 -- 00:37:46,670

Hey, wait for me!

292

00:
37:51,560 -- 00:37:52,679

Is it here?

293

00:
37:52,680 -- 00:37:54,240

No.

294

00:
37:54,390 -- 00:37:56,809

It went to a big tree.

295

00:
37:56,810 -- 00:37:59,050

But there wasn't any other path.

296

00:
37:59,480 -- 00:38:02,330

Let's go home, Mei!

297

00:
38:02,650 -- 00:38:04,890

Listen, Mei!

298

00:
38:16,830 -- 00:38:21,050

But it's true! Totoro was here.

299

00:
38:21,420 -- 00:38:22,890

I'm not lying.

300

00:
38:31,970 -- 00:38:33,130

Mei.

301

00:
38:33,730 -- 00:38:35,470

I didn't lie.

302

00:
38:36,940 -- 00:38:40,910

Neither of us think you're lying.

303

00:
38:41,190 -- 00:38:44,430

You must have met the keeper of the forest.

304

00:
38:44,690 -- 00:38:46,870

That means good fortune is with you.

305

00:
38:47,410 -- 00:38:50,230

He doesn't come out very often.

306

00:
38:51,780 -- 00:38:54,249

Say, we should go to the shrine to pay our respects.

307

00:
38:54,250 -- 00:38:55,249

Pay our respects?

308

00:
38:55,250 -- 00:38:57,320

Tsukamori! Let's go!

309

00:
39:14,930 -- 00:39:16,580

Mei, you're getting heavy.

310

00:
39:16,581 -- 00:39:18,880

Father, look! That camphor tree!

311

00:
39:19,480 -- 00:39:21,260

Isn't it huge?

312

00:
39:28,860 -- 00:39:30,350

There it is!

313

00:
39:31,200 -- 00:39:31,819

Is that the tree?

314

00:
39:31,820 -- 00:39:32,860

Yes.

315

00:
39:33,200 -- 00:39:35,940

Father, hurry. Hurry!

316

00:
39:46,590 -- 00:39:48,629

The hole is gone.

317

00:
39:48,630 -- 00:39:50,290

Was this really the place?

318

00:
39:51,720 -- 00:39:53,759

She says the hole is gone.

319

00:
39:53,760 -- 00:39:56,429

I told you he doesn't come to see us often.

320

00:
39:56,430 -- 00:39:59,240

But will he come again?

I want to meet him, too.

321

00:
39:59,890 -- 00:40:02,680

Well, if good fortune is with you.

322

00:
40:03,940 -- 00:40:05,910

Isn't this a beautiful tree?

323

00:
40:07,320 -- 00:40:11,900

This tree must have stood here for years and years.

324

00:
40:12,950 -- 00:40:17,070

Trees and people used to be good friends.

325

00:
40:18,000 -- 00:40:22,477

I saw that tree and decided to buy the house.

326

00:
40:22,478 -- 00:40:25,120

Hope Mom likes it too.

327

00:
40:25,130 -- 00:40:28,459

Okay, let's pay our respects,

then get home for lunch.

328

00:
40:28,460 -- 00:40:31,129

Oh yeah, I promised to go see Micchan!

329

00:
40:31,130 -- 00:40:32,710

I want to go too.

330

00:
40:32,890 -- 00:40:34,130

Attention!

331

00:
40:34,510 -- 00:40:39,059

Thank you for looking after Mei.

332

00:
40:39,060 -- 00:40:41,430

Thank you very much!

333

00:
40:42,100 -- 00:40:43,415

A race to the house!

334

00:
40:43,416 -- 00:40:45,160

That's not fair!

335

00:
40:46,110 -- 00:40:47,770

Wait!

336

00:
40:49,240 -- 00:40:51,109

Hurry up!

337

00:
40:51,110 -- 00:40:53,350

Wait for me!

338

00:
40:55,490 -- 00:40:58,340

Today I have wonderful news.

339

00:
40:58,790 -- 00:41:02,110

Mei met the spirit Totoro.

340

00:
41:07,210 -- 00:41:11,580

I'm thinking it would be wonderful to meet him too.

341

00:
41:41,450 -- 00:41:44,789

Kanta, hurry up! You'll be late!

342

00:
41:44,790 -- 00:41:45,970

Coming...

343

00:
42:28,460 -- 00:42:29,510

Mei?

344

00:
42:30,250 -- 00:42:31,379

Sensei!

345

00:
42:31,380 -- 00:42:33,040

Yes, Satsuki?

346

00:
42:33,460 -- 00:42:35,430

It's my sister...

347

00:
42:42,350 -- 00:42:44,229

Granny, Mei...

348

00:
42:44,230 -- 00:42:49,229

I'm sorry. She insisted to be with you.

Hayao Miyazaki

Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿, Miyazaki Hayao, born January 5, 1941) is a Japanese film director, producer, screenwriter, animator, author, and manga artist. A co-founder of Studio Ghibli, a film and animation studio, he has attained international acclaim as a masterful storyteller and as a maker of anime feature films, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest animation directors. Born in Bunkyō Ward of Tokyo, Miyazaki expressed interest in manga and animation from an early age, and he joined Toei Animation in 1963. During his early years at Toei Animation he worked as an in-between artist and later collaborated with director Isao Takahata. Notable films to which Miyazaki contributed at Toei include Doggie March and Gulliver's Travels Beyond the Moon. He provided key animation to other films at Toei, such as Puss in Boots and Animal Treasure Island, before moving to A-Pro in 1971, where he co-directed Lupin the Third Part I alongside Takahata. After moving to Zuiyō Eizō (later known as Nippon Animation) in 1973, Miyazaki worked as an animator on World Masterpiece Theater, and directed the television series Future Boy Conan. He joined Telecom Animation Film/Tokyo Movie Shinsha in 1979 to direct his first feature films, The Castle of Cagliostro in 1979 and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind in 1984, as well as the television series Sherlock Hound. Miyazaki co-founded Studio Ghibli in 1985. He directed multiple films with Ghibli, including Castle in the Sky in 1986, My Neighbor Totoro in 1988, Kiki's Delivery Service in 1989, and Porco Rosso in 1992. The films were met with commercial and critical success in Japan. Miyazaki's film Princess Mononoke was the first animated film to win the Japan Academy Prize for Picture of the Year, and briefly became the highest-grossing film in Japan following its release in 1997; its distribution to the Western world greatly increased Ghibli's popularity and influence outside Japan. His 2001 film Spirited Away became the highest-grossing film in Japanese history, winning the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards and considered among the greatest films of the decade. Miyazaki's later films—Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, and The Wind Rises—also enjoyed critical and commercial success. Following the release of The Wind Rises, Miyazaki announced his retirement from feature films, though he returned to work on a new feature film in 2016. Miyazaki's works are characterized by the recurrence of themes such as humanity's relationship with nature and technology, the wholesomeness of natural and traditional patterns of living, the importance of art and craftsmanship, and the difficulty of maintaining a pacifist ethic in a violent world. The protagonists of his films are often strong girls or young women, and several of his films present morally ambiguous antagonists with redeeming qualities. Miyazaki's works have been highly praised and awarded; he was named a Person of Cultural Merit for outstanding cultural contributions in November 2012, and received the Academy Honorary Award for his impact on animation and cinema in November 2014. In 2002, American film critic Roger Ebert suggested that Miyazaki may be the best animation filmmaker in history, praising the depth and artistry of his films. more…
