When I was a kid, I saw this cartoon and I never forgot it. It was called My Neighbor Totoro, it is a Japanese Anime film, back then Japanese Animes were famous. I don’t know if you know him, but I really loved him. ![]()

The Setting: 1958, Rural Japan
The Characters:
Satsuki — the older sister
Mei — the youngest sister
Totoro — the Keeper of the Forest
The catbus
Soot Spirits — small house spirits seen when moving from light to dark places, but they leave when the girls become comfortable in their new house and laugh with their father. They look like dust bunnies with eyes, so cute!
One rainy night while waiting for their father’s bus to arrive at the bus stop, Mei was at Satsuki’s back, asleep, Totoro appeared beside them with only a large leaf covering his head, this is the first time Satsuki actually meets Totoro, she gives him an umbrella and he loves it, in turn he gives them something wrapped in leaves, which turned out to be seeds and some nuts, and then he boards the Catbus. That is my fave part, check out the video. I couldn’t find one in English, I think the one is in French, but you get what they’re saying.
I wish I could find a DVD of this somewhere because I’d want to watch it again and maybe let my kids watch it too.![]()
Anyway, here’s the theme song, I don’t know Japanese, maybe I should ask my dad to translate
, but the tune is catchy and I can’t get the chorus out of my head. LOL. ![]()
Thank You for gracing me with your presence!
