It is quite satisfying upon repeat viewings as well, in part due to the complexity of the storytelling. The artwork is incredible. This is also the only anime I have ever seen where they attempted to draw a realistically beautiful old woman. Many times old women, if they appear at all, are withered hags, or cute and comical. Whereas Chiyoko can be cute, even in her aged incarnation, and is occasionally funny, she is also portrayed with a calm elegance befitting a movie star from a bye-gone era. Yes, I loved this movie.
