Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi

---

Chihiro!

Chihiro,

we're almost there.

This really is the middle of nowhere.

I'll have to shop in the next town.

It'll be great, once we get used to it.

Look, there's the school.

That's your new school, Chihiro.

It doesn't look so bad.

I liked my old school...

Mommy...

My flowers died.

No wonder, the way you clung to them.

A little water when we get there and they'll perk right up.

My very first bouquet is farewell flowers, how sad.

What about that rose you got for your birthday?

One rose isn't a bouquet.

You dropped your card.

I'm opening the window.

C'mon now, behave yourself.

It's a big day for all of us.

Hey... Did I take the wrong turn?

I don't get it.

That must be it, look.

It must be that blue one over there.

That's it!

I must've missed the turn-off.

I bet this road'll get us there.

This is always how you get us lost.

Just a little farther, OK?

What are those little houses?

They're shrines. People pray to them.

Daddy, are we lost?

We're fine, we've got 4-wheel drive.

Sit down, Chihiro.

You're going to kill us!

A tunnel?

What's this strange building?

Must be the entrance.

Honey...

Let's go back, honey.

Chihiro.

No...

It's just plaster.

This building's pretty new.

The wind's going in.

What is it?

Let's have a look!

There's a way through.

It's creepy! Daddy, let's go back!

No need to be scared.

Just a little farther, OK?

The moving van will get there before us.

So, let 'em, they've got the keys.

Let the movers move us!

I know, but...

No! I won't go!

Daddy, let's go back!

Nothing to be scared of.

I won't go!

Chihiro, you wait in the car.

Mommy!

Wait!

Watch your step.

You'll make me trip, Chihiro, clinging like that.

Where are we?

Say, do you hear that?

It's a train!

Maybe we're near the station.

Let's go and find out.

What are those houses doing here?

I knew it.

This must be an abandoned theme park.

They built so many in the early '90s, but

they all went down with the economy.

This must be one of 'em.

What! No!

Let's go back, Daddy!

C'mon!

Mommy, that building is moaning.

It's just the wind.

What a lovely spot!

We should've brought our lunch with us.

They were making a river.

Hey, you smell that?

See, it smells great.

You're right!

Maybe they're still open.

Hurry up, Chihiro.

Wait for me!

This way!

Can you believe it, they're all restaurants.

Where is everybody?

Over there!

Hey, hey!

In here, here!

How amazing!

Hello, anybody here?

Come in, Chihiro, it looks delicious.

Hello!

Don't worry. We can pay them when they get back.

You're right!

That one looks great...

I wonder what this is called?

Delicious! Chihiro, taste it.

I don't want to!

Let's go! They're gonna be mad at us.

Don't worry, you've got Daddy here.

I've got credit cards and cash.

Take some, Chihiro. It's so tender.

Mustard.

Thank you.

Mommy!

Daddy!

Weird...

There's a train!

You're not allowed here! Go back!

Wha...?

It's almost night!

Leave before it gets dark!

They're lighting the lamps. Go!

I'll distract them.

Get back across the river!

What's his problem?

Daddy!

Daddy, let's go home!

Let's go, Daddy!

Daddy!

Mommy!

Mommy!

It's water!

This can't be...

I'm dreaming, dreaming!

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!

Wake up...

It's just a dream! A dream!

Go away! Disappear!

Disappear!

I can see through!

It's a dream, it's got to be!

Don't be afraid, I'm a friend.

No, no, no!

Open your mouth and eat this!

Unless you eat something from

this world, you'll vanish.

No!

Don't worry.

It won't turn you into a pig.

Chew it and swallow.

Good girl, you're fine.

See for yourself.

I'm back again...

You see?

Now come!

What about my mom and dad? They

didn't really turn into pigs, did they?

You can't see them now, but you will.

Quiet!

It's looking for you.

There's no time! Let's run!

I... I can't stand! Oh, no!

My legs don't work.

Calm down. Take a deep breath.

In the name of the wind and

the water within thee...

Unbind her!

Get up!

Hold your breath while we're on the bridge.

Even a tiny breath will break the spell,

and the attendants will see you.

I'm scared.

Be calm!

Welcome!

Always nice to see you!

Welcome, welcome!

I'm back from my task.

Welcome back, sir.

A deep breath...

And hold...

Welcome back!

We missed you!

Hang on, we're almost...

Master Haku!

Where have you...

Wha...

A human?

Run!

What...

Master Haku, Master Haku!

Chase after it!

A human intruder!

I smell humans!

The stench of humans!

They know you're here.

I'm sorry, I took a breath.

No, Chihiro, you did very well.

Listen and I'll tell you what to do.

Stay here, and they'll find you.

I'll distract them.

In the meantime, you escape.

No, don't go!

Stay with me, please!

You have no choice, if you want to survive here.

And save your parents, too.

So they did turn into pigs...

I wasn't dreaming...

Be still...

When things quiet down, go out by the back gate.

Take the stairs, all the way down.

Until you reach the boiler room,

where they stoke the fires.

Kamaji's there, so look for him.

Kamaji?

Ask him for work.

Even if he refuses, insist!

If you don't work, Yubaba will

turn you into an animal.

Yubaba?

You'll see. She's the sorceress who rules our world.

Kamaji will turn you away, trick you into you

leaving, but keep on asking him for work.

It'll be hard work, but it will give you a chance.

Then even Yubaba can't harm you.
