Prior to arriving at the main menu, Disc 1 opens with trailers for the other titles that appeared in Disney's first wave of Studio Ghibli releases: Castle in the Sky and Kiki's Delivery Service. Other trailers are accessible on the sneak peaks menu, including the theatrical trailer for Pixar's Finding Nemo, which was upcoming at the time of this disc's release. However, all of these trailers are now out of date. Haku finds Chihiro and leads her toward the bathhouse. She sees several animals and creatures visiting the bathhouse, as well as No-Face ( 顔無し, Kaonashi ), a masked spirit. Haku instructs her to ask for a job from the bathhouse's boiler-man, Kamaji, a yōkai commanding the susuwatari. Kamaji says that he already has enough susuwatari to help him. After Chihiro tries to help but inadvertently causes some disruption, Kamaji asks a worker named Lin to send Chihiro to Yubaba, the witch who runs the bathhouse.

The extra features are spread across both discs. On Disc 1, when you play the movie, a one-minute introduction by John Lasseter plays automatically in front of it and regrettably cannot be skipped. In my grandparents' time, it was believed that kami existed everywhere– in trees, rivers, insects, wells, anything. My generation does not believe this, but I like the idea that we should all treasure everything because spirits might exist there, and we should treasure everything because there is a kind of life to everything. [8] Chihiro's parents turning into pigs symbolizes how some humans become greedy. At the very moment Chihiro says there is something odd about this town, her parents turn into pigs. There were people that "turned into pigs" during Japan's bubble economy ( consumer society) of the 1980s, and these people still haven't realized they've become pigs. Once someone becomes a pig, they don't return to being human but instead gradually start to have the "body and soul of a pig". These people are the ones saying, "We are in a recession and don't have enough to eat." This doesn't just apply to the fantasy world. Perhaps this isn't a coincidence and the food is actually (an analogy for) "a trap to catch lost humans". [42]Turan, Kenneth (20 September 2002). "Under the Spell of 'Spirited Away' ".

In Spirited Away, two major instances of allusions to environmental issues have been noted. Pam Coats, for example, a Vice President of Walt Disney Feature Animation, describes Chihiro dealing with the "stink spirit", who, it turns out, is actually a river spirit but is so corrupted with filth that one couldn't tell what it was at first glance. It only became clean again when Chihiro pulled out a huge amount of trash, including car tires, garbage, and a bicycle. This alludes to human pollution of the environment, and how people can carelessly toss away things without thinking of the consequences and of where the trash will go.

The closing song, "Always With Me" ( いつも何度でも, "Itsumo Nando Demo ", lit. 'Always, No Matter How Many Times') was written and performed by Youmi Kimura, a composer and lyre-player from Osaka. [29] The lyrics were written by Kimura's friend Wakako Kaku. The song was intended to be used for Rin the Chimney Painter ( 煙突描きのリン, Entotsu-kaki no Rin), a different Miyazaki film which was never released. [29] In the special features of the Japanese DVD, Hayao Miyazaki explains how the song in fact inspired him to create Spirited Away. [29] The song itself would be recognized as Gold at the 43rd Japan Record Awards.
