It's been years, but Starlight Angel is my favorite too! I last watched it not long after going to Disney World and checking out the Magic Kingdom and Epcot, and there are so many little parallels! Cinderella's castle in the background, the Electric Light Parade, Space Mountain, and probably other things I'm forgetting. Also fond of Koji Morimoto's short, Franken Gears I think it was called? And Chicken Man and Red Neck, the tribute to Fantasia's Night on Bald Mountain. I really oughtta rewatch it soon.

I actually specifically mentioned how alike Night on Bald Mountain that short was in my original review! It was probably my third favorite. It was so ominous. There's a lot good here, I really enjoy it. I've watched it probably 4 or 5 times and put on Starlight Angel on its own just to hear that song! So good. I'd love to know if the parallels were intentional or if they were building off of Nara Dreamland, which I'm sure you know all about and oh man, I would have loved to go there!
