[Opinions] Re: Thea
in reply to a message by Grazz
I was actually just about to post about this! I'm in the minority, but the first association, for me, is the deuteragonist of 'Shuna's Journey,' Miyazaki's watercolor-illustrated graphic novel that played a significant role in the production of 'Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind,' 'Princess Mononoke,' and 'Tales from Earthsea.'In the story, Thea is a teenage girl enslaved by a wealthy market town with her little sister; Shuna, the protagonist, fights for their freedom. Thea is shown to be highly intelligent, a hard worker, and a compassionate soul. She's one of my favorite book characters, but it's hard to talk about her without spoiling the story. So, for the reader's sake, I will not say any more.
