On this episode, join Kate, Ed, Dennis, Diana, and Sam as they discuss the Spirited Away stage play adaptation that was a limited run in North American theaters. Thanks to GKIDS for bringing this over during the 2023 Ghibli Fest, and here's hoping that they bring more over. Note: there will not be a plot summary for this as Spirited Away was covered in depth on a previous episode.
