Customer Reviews
Superficial
The episode on “Laputa castle in the sky” was very ordinary with an overlong plot retell with too much chitchat interspersed. The critical comments on the film, whether praise or criticism were not particularly thoughtful or informative.
Also the man struggled with pronunciation thinking that being “rubbish with names” was an excuse, along with both mispronouncing “Totoro”
I wouldn’t try another episode; the “Ghibliotheque” podcast is of much higher standard.
