@samenrensfan11 .....she IS a fish, the daughter of some kind of king of the sea, plus she's magical... and, no, in the film she's running on the top of a giant fish.
ATTENTION GHIBLI FANS: DO NOT BUY THE NEW BLUE RAY VERSIONS OF THE MOVIE, THEY RE-DUBBED THEM AND IT JUST SOUNDS WRONG!!! KEEP THE TRADITION STRONG, DONT BUY THE FAKES!!!!<3
@haosshamanqueen No...... they don't. I've lived there for 6 years. I saw a few people point like that-but they got in trouble. Normally they point with their whole hand. It's probably because of what it means in other places.....
@sakura48anime The Japanese DO point with their middle fingers, though not exclusively or universally. I saw it often enough while living there, in media and in person. Younger people, or those with more exposure to Western cultures, might use the index finger more often for pointing. But in some cases, as when using chopsticks or in particularly emotional or dramatic moments, you'll see the middle finger used.
@nippelfreak Uhm. Everyone else in the world translated this into their own language.. Miyazaki's films are in many different languages. That includes the songs too.
I generally try to watch an anime in english if i can, but if the dub is dire then i'll watch subs, not out of lazyness, more I find that some japanese voices for characters, especially the voices for the little girls can be rather grating. the Japanese voice for Mei from Tororo for example...

The rap one just isn't RIGHT! You look at the film, use the scene this pictures taken from, and add this in instead?
...
Yeah, I didn't think so.
