For the scene where San reacts to Ashitaka calling her beautiful, was meant to coincide with how she saw herself. Since she considers herself an "animal", whenever she saw her face, she only ever saw the face of the enemy, and with her hatred of humans, she was probably disgusted by what she saw. Likewise, the other animals and gods probably didn't find her humanity to be appealing either (the mother wolf even comments that she's ugly at one point), so she likely always saw herself as repulsive and ugly. Not just by the animals, but by the other humans as well. So to suddenly be called beautiful by Ashitaka was most likely the first time anyone had called her beautiful. It shocked her and she didn't know how to feel or react about the fact that someone, human or animal, could see her as anything other than ugly.

Ashitaka didn't leave bc he didn't want to die, he left bc he was forced too by the elder lady of the town.

Thing to keep in mind: in the Japanese dub, Ashitaka's "sister" is actually his fiancee. It was a translation error which made her his sister in the English dub. The crystal dagger was essentially a proposal ring, which is why Ashitaka gives it to San.

<b>Me every time he says Atakashi</b> : A-shi-ta-ka!<br><br>Also, Princess Mononoke's name is San. A mononoke is a word for a vengeful spirit in Japanese folklore.<br><br><br>Fun fact, the art style of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was inspired by this movie.

"If left unchecked, the wound will eventually fill him with rage and hate, and even end up killing him". I see. So the dude's got rabies.

okay i heavily disagree with the “unnecessary love interest” part. ashitaka called her beautiful because she is human and her soul is pure. he didn’t mean that she’s physically attractive, and san knows this. san saw what he saw in her and was revolted but also charmed. this isn’t a physical attraction...this is a soul attraction.

I will always remember that scene where the dude's arms and head get ripped off by the arrows. That was a watershed moment in my childhood.

You should do Princess Nausicca of the Valley of the Wind it's an extremely emotional movie with a great message <br>And it was also the 1st Studio Ghibli movie I ever saw so I might be a bit bias
