When people live almost, they have to step on the edge of life; when the world develops more or less, they will be pushed to the edge of the times.
There is no room for silence on the edge, either here or somewhere.
Once decided, it is destined to become a brand new existence.
I can't bear to be indifferent, I can't bear to try food, try marriage, and I can't bear to struggle.

"Ponyo, if you become a human, you will lose your mana, would you like it?"

If you were Ponyo, could you leave the magic behind and be willing to be a lowly creature (a stupid human)?
If you were Sousuke, could you leave the toy ship behind and take your partner out of the dark tunnel to a living pool?

"What you can't take away can't be thrown away, let the heavy rain erode it!" Can you?

If there is a world, it's not worth it to be cloudy.
will you fly away?
Will you be madly in love?

If there is an embrace, brave no matter the cost.
will you stay?
Are you breathless?

We used to run wild, dance, talk greedily;
with the cold wet debilitating city debilitating heart.
Corrupted indomitable childishness, free-spirited optimism.
We became unable to move an inch.

However, do you remember?
There is no room for silence on the edge, either here or somewhere.

    Japanese neuropathy Hayao Miyazaki got goosebumps after watching it. As long as everyone starts to like a director, I usually don't like it. . .

    Ponyo is also too terrifying, some of the shapes are slightly clam, so scared that I can't speak. Makes me reconfirm that Ghibli is a cult film company with the uncanny valley and intensive phobia as its selling points. I really like Po Niu's dad, a dead house magician, and his style also has a Romani feel.

Ponyo quotes

  • Lisa: So what's your Mother like, then?

    Ponyo: She's big and beautiful, but she can be very scary!

    Sosuke: Just like my Mom.

  • Sosuke: Look at her. Isn't she pretty?

    Kumiko: That's the most boring goldfish I've ever seen in my entire life!
