Episode 128- Princess Mononoke (1997)

In the 14th century, the harmony that humans, animals and gods have enjoyed begins to crumble. The protagonist, young Ashitaka - infected by an animal attack, seeks a cure from the deer-like god Shishigami. In his travels, he sees humans ravaging the earth, bringing down the wrath of wolf god Moro and his human companion Princess Mononoke. Hiskattempts to broker peace between her and the humans brings only conflict.

 

There are very few definitive movies that encompass the field of anime that set standards - Miyazaki's "Princess Mononoke" is for sure one of them. Jack has chosen a stellar film for the boys to discuss today.  The voice casting is on point, the action, the story, moral lessons and connection to Japanese mythology is all through the roof.  Join us for a deep dive into this brilliant film from 1997 and be sure to pay tribute to the Spirit of the Forest.
