The Raw Deal
I looked up at the television, and couldn't believe what I saw.

It was a huge animal, walking through the snowy forest. It had legs like tree trunks, a powerful-looking snout, fangs like kitchen knives, bared right at me. Its powerful, bright orange eyes burned all through me. Fierce, sharp claws laid waste to a tree, like it was a scratching post. It was a brilliant orange and white colour, with these daring black stripes running all around its body.

And man, what this creature could do! I watched it chase down a huge moose-like thing and wrestle it to the ground! His terrific roar shook the air, even in the living room!

Questions have arisen about how it's possible that the Na'vi, the dominant indigenous species of Pandora, fourth moon of the gas giant Polyphemus, in orbit around Alpha Centauri, nearly 4 light-years from Earth, have features very similar to humans. Though they have evolved to be larger and lither, to cope with Pandora's lower gravity and the treacherous ecosystem, they have been described as a visual mix between humans, standing erect and with similar facial and anatomical structure, and lions, with a flat, catlike snout and long, tufted tail (that has a questionable use in maintaining balance). It is especially puzzling,

This is just a little wallpaper I made in a Photoshop class on some long-gone summer's day...

We had to make a wallpaper, and Howl's Moving Castle was coming out in about a month, so I just threw this little thing together. I do so admire Miyazaki...

I know he's made more than four movies, but the other movies had Heroes in them (Princess Mononoke, Porco Rosso, and so on). Maybe I'll make a "Heroes of Hayao Miyazaki" wallpaper someday...

It was one of Miyazaki's earliest films. It even predates the establishment of Studio Ghibli. It's one of my favourite Miyazaki films! :D

This predated Howl's Moving Castle, and you can find Princess Mononoke on this submission: [link]

Time well spent, I assure you. I'm a fan of Miyazaki-dono's movies. They are without any shadow of a doubt magical in the way they are done. Sadly, I have yet to see Howl's Moving Castle to this day... but I'm planning to fix that this weekend. Remarkable work on this project.

Wa-hey! It doesn't include Sophie so I can like it. All these charectors were lovely, really, there isn't much else to say about them.

Incidently I hold nothing against Sophie in the book, in fact she's one of my favourite fictional charectors of all time but the HMC movie was essentially my favourite book put through a mangle thus I hold a grude.

WAIT.

San (Princess Mononoke) was VERY much a heroine! Miyazaki has a heroine in every one of his movies!

I couldn't fit everyone in there. Besides, I think the movie was more about Ashitaka than San.
