How does Chihiro end up in the theme park?
Chihiro rescued his parents, helped Master Haku find his name, at the end, Chihiro learned to be strong, how to love and grow up.

Describe her relationship to Master Haku.
As a child, Master Haku saved her and Chihiro retrieved the real name for him.

What is the secret of Yubaba (see below)?
In fact that they are the same person, but their personality has two sides.
On behalf of the personality of the light and darkness.

Write a summary/setup of SPIRITED AWAY.
Finally, Chihiro finally independent. No matter what things have to rely on their own. This is also the rules of the game in our real life. Chihiro has been reborn, know how to appreciate, care, thinking for others to do something.

housands of miles is the first in history and the only one to get the three major European film festival works of the Golden Bear in Berlin. Its charm is not only the film produced well, behind the fascinating story also contains a lot of philosophy of life.

        In the supernatural town, those who do not work, lazy people, have to become a pig to eat. Thousands of parents because of greedy, without permission to touch the food, and was punished into a pig. People can not work, otherwise only know how to eat and drink, and what is the difference between pigs.

        It is important to work hard. In order to get a job, the delicate Chihiro courage to cross the risk to find the soup mother-in-law, not her coercion is not confused by the clever words, both fear and firm demands, and finally get a job. In the work process diligent efforts, strong and kind, and ultimately get everyone's respect.

        Do not forget yourself. White said: forget their own name, will forget their own past. This philosophy is very alert people. No matter what kind of mix, where in the position, how much glory harvest, nor can he pretend to be empty or empty. Forget their original look, no heart, but there is no foundation of the floating do not know where to go.

        Although it is anime, the film's whole tone is still very serious, one by one through the illusory world to explain the truth, perhaps more suitable for adult viewing.

I really love the animation made by Hayao Miyazaki. Hayao Miyazaki’s animation always reveal some real issue. Just like Chihiro pull a lot of trash out of river god’s body, we can see how human treat their environment. Characters, Yubaba and Zaneba, are also interested me. They have same appearance but different character.

The relationship between Haku and Chihiro is also interesting, because they have familiar situation. Haku protect Chihiro at begin. And then Chihiro save Haku’s live. They both help each other to remember their name. And Haku have saved Chihiro when she was child. That’s why they feel familiar with each other.
At the end, Chihiro successfully save her parents and go back to their world.

I really love this movie, I have watch this movie more than 5 times. But I still don’t know the meaning of the the black people on the train.

Between the country village and the theme park there is a long dark tunnel, a mysterious river, and an abandoned empty station, making a kind of boarder. All these details suggest that the theme park is completely different place from the world where Chihiro has been lived until now. In fact, everything is changed in the theme park; Chihiro’s parents are transformed to pigs, Chihiro loses her name and her clothes including her shoes. Chihiro is hired by Yubaba and starts to work for her in Yubaba’s bathhouse.

Yubaba is a master of the bathhouse. Her living space is on the top floor of the bathhouse full of antique crafts embellished with gold and colorful gemstones. It looks glamorous and splendid but it gives an impression of extravagance and greed. She has a baby. She loves her baby so much that she never let him out from his room decorated with the best quality antique furniture and all sorts of luxuries. Everything in the bathhouse goes for Yubaba’s fortune and possessions. Yubaba is a queen of the bathhouse with the great fortune and the unlimited power.

On the other hand, Chihiro’s mission is far from making money because only she wants is to go back home with her parents and protects Haku. Chihiro works hard and runs a risk not for herself, but for her parents and Haku. 10-year-old girl fully understands what love is and her love enables her to remember Haku’s forgotten name and save her parents by distinguishing them from other pigs.

1. How does Chihiro end up in the theme park?

On the way to their new house, Chihiro and her parent found strange tunnel in a forest. While looking around the inside of the tunnel, they found the old theme park.

2. Describe her relationship to Master Haku.

When Chihiro was young, she fell into a river. At that time, someone save her in a deep water. He is Haku, spirit of the river.

3. What is the secret of Yubaba?

Is there secret of Yubaba which is not revealed directly in the movie? She makes real human pig, loves her kid, and made Haku, former spirit of a river, her retainer.

4. Write a summary / setup of SPRITED AWAY/

After her parents became pigs, Chihiro began to work in Yubaba’s bath and tried to find the way how to get back her parents. Although the work was not easy, Chihiro handled complicated problems well and found out the secret how to rescue her mother and father with Haku’s help.

How does Chihiro end up in the theme park?
She took the Yubaba's final test and she passed. Her parents came back and they went back to the car through the tunnel.

Describe her relationship to Master Haku.
Master Haku was the good of Kohaku river. Chihiro and he had relationship when she was a child. When she drowned in Kohaku river, he saved her. She remembered him, and he got his true name.

What is the secret of Yubaba (see below)?
I think the secret of Yubaba is Bou and Zeniba. Bou is her son and she is soft on him. He is everything to her. Also, Zeniba is her twin sister. Yubaba thinks of nothing but making money. Zeniba is kind and lives in a simple way. They are opposite. I think Yubaba feels a sense of inferiority because Zeniba lives happily with less desires.

Write a summary/setup
Chihiro and her parents got lost and arrived the strange world. Suddenly, her parents became pigs and she worked hard and met many of kind person. She did her best to make her parents back to the original.
