Phobophilia posted:It's best to think of them as part of a greater, amoral ecology. This is basically one environmentalist parable. You want to avoid perturbing environments willy-nilly, just in case you knock out some keystone or producer species. Yes, some are dangerous, but you should only kill them at a last resort. My favorite thing about Mushishi is how this naturalism is metaphorically tied to the show's human relationships. Like, in ep 2 you can tell how Ginko is holding back on suggesting that the man and his child move back in with the village. Art and music porn aside, there is something compelling about the show's willingness to forego any kind of proselytization; I love how characters might only move inches in each story but still come out feeling fully fleshed out and making life altering decisions. It's good to have this show back
