Haven't seen the movie but if you told me the trailer was an AI recreation of Spirited Away I would have believed it.

I'd definitely recommend seeing it. It's really nothing like Spirited Away outside of both having a kid going into another world. The themes have some crossover but are not really the same.

Ok cool! I was looking forward to it anyhow, the animation quality alone looks amazing.

It truly is. Smoother animation and so much detail.
