A name coincidence or a deeper connection? There is likely a piece of information that undermines this train of thought. I await your responses that debunk this theory!

For me, illustrative quality of the spirit world is the highlight of Korra Book 2 trailer. I think the “real world” animation — especially the work on the bike chase — is detailed, fluid, and as kinetic as ever, but man, these above frames are on a whole other level of artistry.
The spirit designs have had a Miyazaki/Spirited Away quality to them. The scenes featuring Wan feel distinct — more storybook, emulating ancient Eastern artwork. My mind jumped to the animation of Isao Takahata (Grave of the Fireflies) and Shoujirou Nishimi (Tekkonkinkreet).
What do they recall for you? Where do they take your imagination?
