Ponyo falls in love with Sosuke. Sosuke also falls in love with Ponyo. "I'll protect you," he says. However, Ponyo is taken back to the sea by her father, Fujimoto, who once renounced his humanity and became a resident of the sea. "I want to be human!" Ponyo steals her father's magic with the help of her sisters and sets out for the human world again, where Sosuke lives. The water of life, which has dangerous power, is scattered. The sea swells, a storm rages, and her sisters transform into giant fish and rush to the cliff where Sosuke lives as a tsunami. The chaos in the sea engulfs the town where Sosuke and the others live, swallowing it whole and sinking it into the sea. A story of a boy and a girl, love and responsibility, the sea and life. In an age of neurosis and anxiety, Hayao Miyazaki fearlessly depicts a story of a mother and child.
