wishes, whereas Reality occurs when it happens according to 'Nature's Will,' regardless of
your wishes.
2. Why does it seem hard to expect a good reality in some situations?

Because you can't control everything in the world. Everything has its own set of distinctions.

anticipate a good reality is due to these factors.

POST TEST
Hayao Miyazaki wrote and directed the 2004 Japanese animated fantasy film Howl's Moving Castle.
The film is based in part on Diana Wynne Jones' 1986 novel of the same name. Toshio Suzuki directed the
film, which was produced by Toho and distributed by Studio Ghibli. Chieko Baisho and Takuya Kimura
appeared in the Japanese voice cast, while Jean Simmons, Emily Mortimer, Lauren Bacall, Christian Bale,
Josh Hutcherson, and Billy Crystal starred in the English dub version. Sophie Hatter, Wizard Howl, The
Witch of the Waste, Calcifer, Michael, Miss Angorian, Lettie and Martha Hatter, The King, Percival, Fanny
Hatter, The Scarecrow, and Mrs. Pentstemmon are the characters in the anime adaptation and novel.
The story takes place in a fictional kingdom where magic and early twentieth-century technology
coexist, against the backdrop of a war with another kingdom. It tells the story of Sophie, a young, content
milliner who is cursed by a witch who enters her shop and turns her into an old woman. She meets a wizard
named Howl and becomes engrossed in his opposition to fighting for the king. The literary adaptation itself
is spectacular, with the graphics and colors capturing the attention of all moviegoers. Although the story was
adequately adapted, there were a few notable differences in the film. Characters in the original novel appear
to be aware that they are living in a fairy tale and believe that the traditional tropes that have been applied to
them, such as the youngest child being the most successful, are true and unchangeable.
Furthermore, the Witch of the Waste is depicted as exceedingly lovely and exquisite in the original
tale, having been kept forever youthful thanks to a deal with a fire demon. However, she was portrayed as a
hag in the anime adaption, which was modeled on Ursula from Disney's The Little Mermaid, and which was
accentuated when she performed a spell. While most references to other popular works of fantasy were
removed from the anime adaptation, one running gag from the novel was retained: several characters make
references to The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz. There's a nasty witch, appropriately named "Witch of the
Waste," a scarecrow, a dog, and even a wizard, the title character, who has a similar origin to Baum's
Wizard in the novel.
Finally, the two main characters in the magical realm, Wizard Howl and the Witch of the Waste, are
engaged in a fundamentally good vs evil conflict. The theme of this work also goes to show that being good
or evil is a choice, as it is repeatedly questioned whether Howl, who has always been on the good side, has
now turned evil. The motif also emphasizes that if the right path is taken, good will triumph.
