I've seen this film.
I remember that I first heard it from an otaku and wasn't all that excited (the guy was completely "OMG, that's " :p), but I was trying to pull a girl back in that time (it was about 2 years ago) and decided to watch it in the cinema with her. Heh :D
The film felt like it was an excellent an advertising stunt from Hayao Miazaki, even though he was quite famous already before S.A. Simply put, it reminded me a lot of "Alice in Wonderland", but with Japanese thematics. Instead of having a good story carried by a nice scenario, it was the other way round, and that's what spoiled the film for me. The story lacked substance, whereas the images were flawlessly designed, bringing whatever exotic elements that ressembled Japanese culture they could find. The hot bath, the lamps... with some mysterious characters. The girl didn't like it either... I still think we should've watched Finding (?) Nemo, but she had to go with her cousing in the previous week and had watched it already :p
After watching S.A. though, I did watch "Grave of fireflies", and I liked it a lot more :) |

Because it's cute and because there must be a subliminal message somewhere :p
My sister is annoyingly addicted to S.A., to the point her e-mail address is Chihiro.Lira... |

| It's pretty good, but I like Princess Mononoke, Valley of the Wind, and some of his other ones abit better. |
