3. Spirited Away
 Ten-year old Chihiro and her parents are moving when her father takes a wrong turn. Her father thinks they've found an abandoned
amusement park and insists on exploring. Chihiro finds an exquisite bathhouse. Suddenly a boy orders her to cross the river before
dark. Spirits begin haunting the park, and when Chihiro returns to her parents, they have become pigs. Chihiro runs to the river, but it
has flooded and is impossible to cross. The boy, whose name is Haku, finds her and says he has known her since she was little. He
tells her to ask for a job from the bathhouse's boiler-man, Kamaji. Kamaji and the worker Lin send Chihiro to the witch Yubaba, who
runs the bathhouse. Yubaba gives Chihiro a job but steals her name. She is renamed Sen, the first character of her name.Haku
shows Sen her parents' pigpen. Among her belongings, she finds a goodbye card addressed to Chihiro. Sen realizes that
she has already forgotten her name. Haku warns her that Yubaba controls people by taking their names. If she forgets hers
like he has forgotten his, then she cannot leave the spirit world.At work, Sen invites a silent masked creature inside. A stink
spirit arrives and is Sen's first customer. She discovers he is the spirit of a polluted river. In gratitude for cleaning him, he
gifts Sen with a magic emetic dumpling. Secretly, the masked creature tempts a worker with gold, then swallows him.
Publically, the creature demands food and begins tipping extravagantly.The next morning, Sen sees paper shikigami
attacking a dragon. She recognizes the dragon as Haku transformed. When Haku crashes into Yubaba's penthouse, she
runs upstairs. As she passes the masked creature, he offers her a heap of gold, but she refuses it.When Sen reaches
Haku, a shikigami that stowed away on her back transforms into Zeniba, Yubaba's identical twin sister. Zeniba turns
Yubaba's baby son Boh into a mouse and creates a decoy baby. Haku has stolen a magic gold seal from her, and she warns
that it carries a deadly curse. Haku dives to the boiler room with Sen and Boh on his back. As they fall, Sen has a memory of
being underwater. She feeds Haku part of the dumpling, and he vomits up the seal and a black slug that Sen crushes. She
resolves to return the seal and apologize for Haku.Before she leaves, she confronts the masked creature, who is a monster
named No-Face. No-Face has become disgustingly obese, so Sen feeds him the rest of the dumpling. He begins vomiting
and angrily chases Sen out of the bathhouse. As he vomits, he returns to a normal size and a gentle demeanor.While
Sen, No-Face, and Boh travel to Zeniba, Yubaba is furious at the damage caused by No-Face. She blames Sen for inviting
him in and orders that her parents be slaughtered. Haku prods her into realizing that her baby is missing. He proposes to
return Boh in exchange for Yubaba freeing Sen and her parents. Sen, No-Face, and Boh arrive at Zeniba's house. Zeniba
reveals that Sen's love for Haku broke her curse. The black slug was how Yubaba controlled him. Haku arrives. As he flies
her and Boh back to the bathhouse, Sen has another memory of being underwater: When she was little, she fell in the
Kohaku River but was washed safely ashore. She realizes that Haku is the spirit of the Kohaku River and tells him his
name.To break the curse on her parents, Sen must recognize them from among a group of pigs. She correctly discerns that
her parents are not there. Haku takes her to the riverbed, which is dry once more. He says that he can't come with her, and

4. Alice in wonderland
 Troubled by a strange recurring dream and mourning the loss of her beloved father, nineteen-year-old Alice Kingsleigh attends a garden
party at Lord Ascot's estate, where she is confronted by an unwanted marriage proposal and the stifling expectations of the society in
which she lives. Unsure of how to reply, and increasingly confused, she runs away to chase after a rabbit in a blue waistcoat, and
accidentally falls into a large rabbit hole. She is transported to a world called Wonderland, where she is greeted by the White Rabbit, the
Dormouse, the Dodo, and Tweedledum and Tweedledee. They argue over her identity as "the right Alice", who it is foretold will slay the
Red Queen's Jabberwocky on the Frabjous Day and restore the White Queen to power. The group is then ambushed by the
Bandersnatch and a group of playing-card soldiers led by the Knave of Hearts. Alice escapes and flees into the woods.The Knave informs
the Red Queen that Alice has returned and threatens her reign, and the soldiers are ordered to find Alice immediately. Meanwhile, the
wandering Alice encounters the Cheshire Cat, who takes her to the March Hare and the Hatter. On the way to the White Queen's castle,
Hatter relates the terror of the Red Queen's reign, and comments that Alice is not the same as she once was. The Hatter helps Alice
avoid capture by allowing himself to be seized instead. Later, Alice is found by Bayard the Bloodhound, who wishes to take her to the
White Queen, but Alice insists upon helping the Hatter, so they go to the Red Queen's castle.The Red Queen is unaware of Alice's true
identity and therefore welcomes her as a guest. Alice learns that the Vorpal Sword (the only weapon capable of killing the Jabberwocky)
is locked away in a case inside the Bandersnatch's den. The Knave crudely attempts to seduce Alice, but she rebuffs him. She later
manages to retrieve the sword and befriend the Backhander. The Knave finds her with the sword and attempts to arrest her. Alice
escapes on the back of the Bandersnatch and delivers the sword to the White Queen. The Cheshire Cat saves the Hatter from execution,
and the Hatter calls for rebellion against the Red Queen. The rebellion is quickly put down by the Jubjub bird. The resistance flees to the
White Queen's castle, and both armies prepare for battle. Alice remains unsure about the expectation for her to champion the White
Queen, and meets with Absolem the Caterpillar. He reminds Alice of her past visit to Under land (which she mistakenly called
"Wonderland" at the time) thirteen years earlier, and helps give her the courage to fight the Jabberwocky and accomplish "What she must
to do", while he becomes a pupa.When the Frabjous Day arrives, both the White and Red Queens gather their armies on a chessboard-
like battlefield and send forth their chosen champions (armor-clad Alice and the Jabberwocky respectively) to decide the fate of
Underland. Encouraging herself with the words of her late father, Alice manages to kill the Jabberwocky. The White Queen then banishes
the Red Queen and the Knave to the Outlands, and gives Alice a vial of the Jabberwocky's blood, which will take her home. The Hatter
suggests that she could stay in Underland, but she decides that she must go back and promises that she will return.Alice returns home,
where she stands up to her family and pledges to live life on her own terms. Impressed, Lord Ascot takes her in as his apprentice, with the
idea of establishing oceanic trade routes to China. As the story closes, Alice prepares to set off on a trading ship. Absolem, now a
butterfly, lands on her shoulder. Alice recognizes him and greets him before he flutters away.
