The Secret World of Arrietty (2010)

The Secret World of Arrietty (2010)

This is one of those anime where there are two options for English subtitles.  One matches the English audio, and the other, I assume, is the literal Japanese translation.  I like watching with English audio and translated subtitles on at the same time to see just how far off base they got with the dub.

Every once in a while there’s a perfect match where they actually say the same thing; but most of the time everything is reworded, and occasionally there’s a completely different conversation going on from one to the other.

Anyway, I’m hoping the next Ghibli film I pop in has a completely original story instead of being “inspired by” or “based on” something else.
