Mononoke

Mononoke primarily evokes a strong sense of Fear, Anxiety, and Disturbing unease, stemming from its horror genre elements and the unsettling nature of the evil spirits. The investigative plot drives significant Curiosity and Anticipation as the Medicine Seller uncovers the truth behind each Mononoke. The unique, stylized animation and supernatural themes also contribute to a sense of Awe and Surprise. Underlying the horror are moments of Empathy and Sadness as the tragic origins of the spirits are revealed, often leading to a melancholic atmosphere.
