Many people think that the film's main idea is peace or environmental protection, showing the profound contradiction between nature and human beings. But I don't see it that way. To explore the main idea of a work, it is best to start from the content of the work itself; The theme of princess mononoke lies in the film's lines. The real theme of princess mononoke is to explore the meaning of life, as its main character ashitaka has repeatedly shouted: "live."
Although in various behind-the-scenes documentary hayao miyazaki stressed several times, he will not deliberately in the creative process to cater to the tastes of the audience or use a common story, every one of his works are like to "behind closed doors, go out to match the" this sentence for example, conforms to the people in the story of several thousand years experience summed up in the traditional rhythm. The storyline of princess mononoke fits the traditional western hero motif. It can be said that this work depicts an epic heroic journey with great, deep and delicate brushstrokes.
