Our take
Mononoke the Movie: The Phantom in the Rain is a stylised Edo horror set in the women's quarters. You get apparitions, palace rivalry, a death in the household, and some flirting. No real swearing. Fine for 13+ who can handle spirit horror. Sensitive kids will find the palace ugly
Story (may spoil tone)
In the chambers of the Edo harem, two newcomers uncover political intrigue, rivalry and a vengeful spirit only one traveling medicine seller can vanquish.
