Ada ilustrasi desa Matsugo, bus stop, rumah tua Satsuki. I think, Totoro kurang dapat porsi 😅 makanya jd pengen nonton animasinya. Yah, buku dan adaptasinya bisa saling melengkapi. Dan saya msh blm bisa menginterpretasikan dg tepat, apakah Totoro dll menyimbolkan harapan, ketakutan, atau apa. Yg jelas dia muncul ketika Satsuki dan Mei sedih, kesepian atau putus asa.

Only one young girl, rather than two sisters, is depicted in several of Miyazaki's initial conceptual watercolor paintings, as well as on the theatrical release poster and on later home-video releases. According to Miyazaki; "If she was a little girl who plays around in the yard, she wouldn't be meeting her father at a bus stop, so we had to come up with two girls instead. And that was difficult." [6] :11 Miyazaki said the film's opening sequence was not storyboarded; "The sequence was determined through permutations and combinations determined by the time sheets. Each element was made individually and combined in the time sheets..." [6] :27 The ending sequence depicts the mother's return home and the signs of her return to good health by playing with Satsuki and Mei outside. [6] :149 Wiegand, Chris (March 30, 2023).
