What is My Neighbor Totoro based on?

The famous animation master Hayao Miyazaki has produced many classic animations, from "Castle in the Sky" to "Howl's Moving Castle", each set is very popular. Although one of the works has been released for a long time, its protagonist has become the icon of the series and continues to release high-quality products. It is "My Neighbor Totoro". However, a chilling rumor has recently spread on the Internet - "My Neighbor Totoro" is actually adapted from a child murder case! Totoro's true identity turns out to be the God of Death in the underworld, causing the entire story to instantly change from a heartwarming fairy tale to a chilling horror story.

Totoro (1988, translated as My Neighbor Totoro in Chinese) is the masterpiece of director Hayao Miyazaki and one of the earliest Japanese cartoons I came into contact with.

Because of my immense love for Totoro (to the point of madness), for me who likes Totoro so much, the idea that Totoro is the God of Death is undoubtedly a huge blow to me!

The incident started with a post in February this year (sorry, I only found out about it recently). It was reported on the Internet that the two sisters who appeared in the cartoon had no shadows in some scenes. According to the theory, it was rumored that the two sisters had actually passed away long ago. It was precisely because of this that their mother became ill and their father chose to move to a mountain village far away from the city; then there were rumors that Totoro means the god of death in a certain country's language. Only dead people can see it, which further strengthens the theory that the two sisters are dead. At this time, someone jumped out and said: The sister is not dead, the sister Xiaomi drowned when she disappeared on the way, and only the sister is a ghost! The most outrageous statement is that no one in the entire village is alive except his father! In this way, wouldn’t My Neighbor Totoro become a movie not suitable for children? !

Online Japanese translation information

The full text is as follows...

My Neighbor Totoro is the God of Death and said that the two sisters are dead in the story?

My Neighbor Totoro is actually the God of Death!! The shadow of my sister disappeared on the way!! Wait

This theory started to spread around February 2007

There are actually many characters in the animated My Neighbor Totoro Setting and story

I sorted out the Japanese information a little bit

I roughly translated it

Whether it is a coincidence or true depends on the individual< /p>

 

There are many versions speculated by everyone

One of them is that the two sisters actually died in the middle of the story

Then there is the father I'm imagining what the story would be like if the two sisters were alive

And the novel my father wrote in the animation is the original manuscript of this "My Neighbor Totoro"

 

First of all, Totoro is actually the god of death, the messenger of the underworld

People who meet Totoro are about to die or are about to die

Then in the story, the blueprint of Qikokuyama Hospital where the mother is admitted is

The Hachikuniyama Hospital actually exists

If you check it on the Internet, you will find that this hospital mainly treats terminally ill and mentally ill patients

During the story, my sister Xiaomei’s slippers were found in the pond when she disappeared

In fact, my sister had already drowned in the pond at that time

Sister Gao Yue saw her sister's slippers

Because she didn't dare to face the reality

, she lied "This is not Xiaomei..."

 

< p> And after the scene of the slippers in the pool

The two sisters appeared without a shadow

Then they came to find Xiaomei The place where I first met Totoro

 "Please...let me see Totoro"

 

 "My Neighbor Totoro, Xiaomei is lost

I couldn’t find it even after looking for it

Please help me find Xiaomei!! Now...he must be crying somewhere...

What should I do?"

 

 "It turns out that no one can see..."

 

 After this series of lines, my sister Satsuki opened the gate to the underworld by herself< /p>

And the Totoro bus specially used to carry souls took my sister Satsuki to her sister's place

And the last scene where my mother was in the hospital

"Now, on that tree, I seem to feel that Satsuki and Xiaomei are laughing there."

I wonder why only my mother seemed to see the two of them

Why were the two nearby but not there? Meeting my mother

But there was corn with a message?

In fact, both of them had died at that time

There is a saying that it is the Japanese word for corn Homophony

It happens to be very similar to "killing children"

●After the scene of Xiaomei's disappearance, Xiaomei's shadow disappeared

●In the last scene, all the members become young. In fact, it is not the story after the incident, but the scene of life is made to look like a happy ending

Just

●The entire My Neighbor Totoro story The stage of the story is Tokorozawa in Saitama Prefecture, Japan

In Tokorozawa in the 1960s, a pair of sisters were tortured and murdered in the Sayama Incident, and My Neighbor Totoro is based on this Sayama Incident< /p>

This book

The names of the two sisters

Sister Satuki = May in Japanese

Sister Mei = May = May in English

(You can find it in both dictionaries)

And the Sayama incident happened on May 1st

First of all, my sister disappeared. The sister was witnessed frantically looking for her sister

The next day, her sister was found stabbed 16 times in the forest

The sister was so shocked that she wrote a record to the police.

He said a lot of unintelligible words such as "cat monsters", "saw a big raccoon cat monster", etc.

And the mother had died of illness and it was a single-parent family, etc.< /p>

There are many similarities with the story of Totoro

When this statement was first spread

I heard that someone seemed to be fighting I called Jibrin to inquire

The Jibrin staff just admitted with a smile

But recently, as soon as the news spread

< p> Giblin received a lot of inquiries.

"Is Totoro the God of Death?" "Why did Mei have no shadow at the end?" etc.

So Giblin is on the blog It was announced above

The reason why there is no shadow is because we judged that there is no need for shadow in the painting of this place

That’s why we didn’t paint it
