So I just finished the movie and it was a copy of spirited away but I wouldn't call it a ripoff because there's a few different plot points and themes, like accepting your role in society and that everyone is important. Its not that bad just decent. I thought the characters were cute especially the squirrel rat thing. It gets better in the 2nd half. The first half is trying way too hard to be spirited away. The parts that are different I liked. Also I really liked the animation and art style. I liked how the characters grow and changed. The plot is prettyweird and confusing probably because they were trying to copy spirited away but be different at the same time. I still liked the movie. If you like cute animes I think you'll like it.
