Miyazaki admitted to having a fascination with pigs and confided that often in sketches he portrays himself as a pig.

Miyazaki's films have often ranged wide for their inspiration, but here he seems to have raided the folklore of nearly every culture in the northern hemisphere and compressed what he found into a Japanese mold.
Chihiro's encounter with a river god early in her bathhouse career is the first obvious example of this, but it later becomes apparent that people and the natural world around them have lifelong relationships as important as those between humans.
Miyazaki's film, on the other hand, has the advantage of fewer characters and less interference from dollar-driven studio executives, so it achieves an exquisite balance between epic action and touching emotional moments.
