I watched this movie yesterday. Honestly I hadn't interest about this movie at all.
Because this is one of the oldest Japanese fairy tales. I too knew a summary of story of Kaguya-hime.

But in the end of this movie, I realized that I shed tears for this ancient fairy tale written in a 1000 years ago.
I didn't know that this story is so deep.
I thought a conclusion of this movie has same vibe of Mononoke-hime.
I mean, I felt that these movies were synchronizing the end of movie as a show and the end of fantasy.

Unfortunately this movie wasn't monstrous box office unlike Miyazaki movies.
I think theme song and promotion of this movie were not good, after all.
And of course art of this movie is too avant-garde, in a sense.
But the making term and budget of this movie was enormous.
This means there is a worth to watch this, I think. (not sarcasm)

For now, I watched just once but this is one of the top 3 of Ghibli movies undoubtedly.
