もののけ姫 / Princess Mononoke (1997)

Second time watching this movie, still thought it strange.  The title was about Princess Mononoke, but the movie was about the boy.  I found it strange that every human in the movie was able to run as fast as animals and jump across huge boulder rocks on the river without slipping.

Math Teacher couldn't understand the whole thing.  I said it was about destroying nature.  He said something must be lost in translation.  Yes, it was about humans destroying nature, but what was the motive?  What was the resolution?  Nothing changed in the movie.  The humans didn't learn any lessons.  The animals still hated humans.  The next war was inevitable.
