aww this looked so much funnier when I thought the flap over the face was a beak, the face was a malformed turkey wattle, and the ear a mostly lidded eye. Looks like such a derpy bird that way, but nooo it has to be a human face!
Imo comparing it to a Disney movie is even a bit disrespectful to that masterpiece of animated cinema. I do get what you mean. But it just has so much more heart.
I think Eboshi is actually evil, but she's charismatically evil so it comes off different.
She allows her own people to be bombed, she abandons the wounded from her caravan, and she's effectively tricked the lepers into working to death for her. She could have given up on the forest spirit many times, but left irontown under siege so she could have a chance at killing a god.
She only cares about her people so long as they're empowering her. She listened to Ashitaka talk balance but the minute he went to enforce it, she tried to kill him.
Every time she apologizes and says she will do better, and people forgive her, but she doesn't actually change her ways.
I think this is why Ashitaka ultimately stays in the town - To basically keep her on the path and to her word. (I don't recall if he literally says that)
Sure, but you won't get guys at a bar trying to lure you onto pissing in their mouth or exchange Cleveland steamers. But most women have had a guy go straight to "nice toes"
