First Ghibli Movie *SPIRITED AWAY* Reaction!

[@JessAndTess]

What is the best Studio Ghibli movie? We need to know what's next!

[@asterogasms8123]

Grave of the Fireflies truly one of d best. If u wanna watch it, please watch it in original Japanese language dub.

[@JessAndTess]

Tess said the same thing about the original Japanese.

[@Seita-m1k]

I agree grave of the fireflies next pls...

[@roai8392]

princess mononoke please!

[@Snare3601]

Castle in the Sky. It's much more linear compared to the other Ghibli movies, and Jess might like it as it has strong Indianna Jones vibes

[@zachariahsalinas7071]

Not just any kind of water spirit. It's a river spirit. In many Asian myths, rivers are represented as dragons.

[@oluf999]

The train ride is the best part. That calmness after all that has happened is soothing.

[@JessAndTess]

Very beautiful!

[@cree_VI]

This movie also shows how much Chihiro grew up, how independent she became. No face grows up of others' greed. It's one of my favorite movies. Please check When Marnie was here, it's really underrated one of the last Ghibli's movies.

[@JessAndTess]

Adding it to the list! Thanks!

[@trinitybirtcil6696]

Princess mononoke is probably more his speed. I definitely recomend

[@JessAndTess]

Tess thinks so too!

[@nikot.9920]

I'm so old I remember watching this on VHS when I was a kid. It's one of my favorites.

[@JessAndTess]

Came out 20+ years ago!

[@nikot.9920]

@@JessAndTess Yep I'm old lol

[@JessAndTess]

We hear that...

[@かなもり-m3f]

私も😂誕生日プレゼントでした。

[@rosso757510]

This land is the world of spirits and gods. Chihiro's parents were punished for their immoral behavior and were turned into pigs.

[@Fruktig_Varukorg]

The name Ghibli comes from an Italian airplane, as Hayao Miazaki is a big aviation fan

[@JessAndTess]

Thanks!

[@MM-ou2uo]

It was very fun to watch your reaction ! Btw, what tiny black creatures ate is konpeito, Japanese sugar candy. I’ve tried once but it was so sweet and good.

[@JessAndTess]

Looks like cereal marshmallows!

[@EChacon]

When Sen (Chihiro) and the rest of the Bath House Spirits pull the Bicycle and the trash from the Stink Spirit which turns out to be an injured river god, it was based on an actual real life experience by Hayao Miyazaki. Miyazaki and 10 other people had to pull out a bicycle from a local river that was polluted and once the bicycle and trash were removed, the river eventually became clean again and the fish returned as well. Hopefully you get to react to _Kiki’s Delivery Service_ along with _My Neighbor Totoro, Howl’s Moving Castle,_ and _The Boy and the Heron_ but be careful because Studio Ghibli has been notorious on taking down video reactions to their movies due to international copyright, in fact it’s one of the main reasons why there aren’t many reactors doing reactions to the Studio Ghibli films because of copyright, yet surprisingly I still see 1-2 channels specifically Suzy Lu who uploaded reactions to the Studio Ghibli and their reactions weren’t taken down.

[@JessAndTess]

It was very difficult to get this video past the automated copyright checks, something to consider if we do additional Ghibli movies. But Tess will be wanting more Ghibli movies for sure.

[@asterogasms8123]

OMG Grave of the Fireflies next please! A tearjerker one.

[@JessAndTess]

Even the title sounds sad!

[@asterogasms8123]

@@JessAndTess yesss, it made me cry for an hour :(

[@juneseghni]

@@JessAndTess it's actually a really serious piece based on real life people so don't approach it as purely entertainment or you'll be disappointed/upset

[@asterogasms8123]

@@juneseghni I agree, I hope they watch it next...

[@Nixxsixx420]

Awesome reaction guys spirited away is my absolute favorite movie such beautiful art and a wonderful story

[@JessAndTess]

Appreciate that! Thank you!

[@mikebrown7799]

Guys, be careful posting films from this studio. "VKunia" had her first channel taken down by KZbin after receiving consecutive strikes at one time from Studio Ghibli. While it was about 3 years ago, I don't think their policies have changed. Just an FYI.😉

[@JessAndTess]

Makes sense... We had to upload and re-edit this 10 times before it got past the copyright checks.

[@EChacon]

Depends on the reaction channel and the content they react (although that is subjective and another story) but I agree Studio Ghibli have been notorious on taking down clips and reactions of anything related to Ghibli for international copyright, hence why not to many reactors have reacted to the films of Studio Ghibli (despite being fans of their films). The only other reaction channels that were able to react to the films of Studio Ghibli with no issues are LIPPSSMACKER, WorkingTitleReacts, Reel-Time, 3 Katanas/Quirky Quota (who so far only did _Spirited Away),_ Cinema Therapy and Suzy Lu as those channels especially the latter channel still having the reactions still up and not copyright claimed by Studio Ghibli. I remember Stephanie Best also did reacted to some Studio Ghibli films such as _Spirited Away_ and _Princess Mononoke_ on her channel back in 2020/2021 but those reactions were taken down 2-3 years later in 2022/2023.

[@tacenda3250]

Love the video! The best Ghibli movie is My Neighbor Totoro. I hightly reccomend it though be SURE to watch the FOX dub

[@JessAndTess]

They make different dubs for these?

[@tacenda3250]

@@JessAndTess Fox dubbed a bunch of Ghibli movies in the 90s. When Disney bought Fox, they redubbed some of them for some reason.

[@Sarah00328]

Howl's moving castle react please. 🙏

[@tanelviil9149]

Ok time to react to: SIN CITY 2005 WARRIOR 2011 THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO 2011 LAW ABIDING CITIZEN 2009

[@JessAndTess]

The only one that we've seen is Sin City. Thanks for the suggestions!

[@スモーク999]

森羅万象全てに神が宿るって事理解できるかな？ iPhoneにもXPERIAにも神は宿るし、使い古された歯ブラシにだって神は宿る しかも良い神も悪い神もいるし、強い神も弱い神もいる この宗教観を持つのが日本人

[@kusanagi-kkk]

さすがにiPhoneやXPERIAにも神は宿るってのは違和感ある。

[@Riswlacoste]

せめてお米の一粒とかトイレとか言って欲しかったかも😂

[@zamhobby9662]

Watch the Grave of Fireflies next. It will be fun reaction....

[@Riswlacoste]

I have an advice for u two guys If u wanna get more viewers I recommend u to watch all of Japanese anime with Eng subs so that u could get more Japanese viewers. (I guess every single video would reach around 50k views easily hahaha) (here ppl hardly understand Eng and they tend not to watch videos with only Eng that’s why I’m telling u😢) And there’s one more reason. we’re proud of our VA so if u guys could enjoy it with Japanese we’d be so happy :)) oh and as u were wondering, in Japan we pronounce the studio’s name like “zibli” not “ghibli” but we really don’t mind either way for real (I didn’t get anything when my bf said ghibli and I was like “wtf r u talking abt” tho😂) anyway pls just enjoy our anime and movies !!

[@Sprite_525]

20:18 this might be the funniest react-edit I’ve ever seen, great taste in comedy 😆

[@JessAndTess]

🤣🤣 That's Jess favorite movie lol

[@user-ds2lm8uz6s]

I recommend vampire hunter d bloodlust 2000 and ninja scroll 1993 It’s a good movie and have beautiful Art anime You can watch both movie in dub it’s ok and if you want dark anime I recommend Berserk: Ougon Jidai-hen I - Haou no Tamago 2012 There is three part of the movie. This anime really popular among anime fan And please watch this one in Sub It’s a lot better

[@Seita-m1k]

Hi new subs here! Btw suggestion for next Ghibli movie is Grave of the Fireflies it's good and emotional depressing movie 👍🏻

[@JessAndTess]

Yikes lol. Tess loves it, not sure how Jess would react to "depressing" lol

[@Seita-m1k]

@@JessAndTess I hope you guys give it a try, it's based on a true story tho which makes it more heartbreaking.

[@bijbuzz8320]

My neighbour totoro next please.

[@JessAndTess]

It's on our list!

[@gacktist00]

actually it sounds jeebree in Japanese😂 not g like 'go' but g like 'Gigi' Hadid

[@gacktist00]

also I think you don't have to understand everything about this movie. when we were child, we don't understand many things but still get along like Chihiro. I think that's the charm of this movie. back to the kid's eyes❤ I saw the Totoro in the theater, and children just accepted everything and enjoyed it! also the last part remind me of the Hades and Orpheus, Eurydike's story.😊 great reaction!

[@kellyramirez7465]

Studio Ghibli has great dubbing

[@JessAndTess]

Yeah! It fit really well!

[@stormshadow101]

Your name good anime movie also

[@laurainathunderstorm]

I don't know if it's just me but I definitely found Chihiro's parents less likeable in the dub. Ofc they make the same mistake in both but something feels different about their intonations and stuff.

[@peaceice8755]

This is an anime and try to be more fun and imaginative not like this boring and too serious omg
