princess mononoke is really amazing because it does such a great job of showing two sides and neither of them are wholly right or wrong like there’s the environmental themes but the forest spirits and san aren’t idealized and even though the people of irontown are doing bad things you can see that they’re good people and laDY EBOSHI ESPECIALLY is so ruthless but she helps so many people, the women and the lepers, and then there’s the deer god bringing both life and death and i love how none of it is presented as black and white and ahhhh u//////u

The Forest Spirit
Princess Mononoke
Katsucon 2013
One of my favorite costumes from the weekend - this is such a clever interpretation the Forest Spirit! This lady added lots of neat touches, like kodama peeping out from the headdress and the sprouts coming out of her shoes.HOW DOES THIS HAVE ONLY 28 NOTES

This is how great Princess Mononoke is. It is so great that I couldn’t contain all my fangirl feels into just one post.
Because while San is awesome, so is Lady Eboshi.
Look at her. Just Look.
She is in charge of the richest Iron town in the country. She took in brothel girls and gave them a safe place to live and work and be happy. She took in LEPERS and gave them a purpose and a sanctuary. She’s so bad ass that war lords don’t stand a chance. GODS don’t stand a chance. She personally kills not one, but TWO mother fucking GODS in this movie. And in the end, she sees reason. She’s not ambitious to the point of insanity. She just wants what is best for the people she’s in charge of.
She’s snarky and awesome, and designs guns, and kicks ass AND empowers OTHER women as well. She’s caring too, empathetic. She’s kind of the villain of the movie, and yet she’s not a villain at all. While San is all feral and nature and wild, Eboshi is humanity and civilization embodied. Not evil. Not good. Complex and wonderful, empowered and powerful.

Western version of the Princess Mononoke characters.
San, Lady Eboshi, Ashitaka, Yakul, and the Forest Spirit.
Here are all of the character designs done for class! The assignment was to take a story and redesign the characters, changing the time period and style. I still have some more to do with the project even though class is over. Stay tuned :)
I look forward to more of these! <3
