Last night I had a dream, bordering on a nightmare, about this episode. In fact, from time to time I have the same dream which proves that this episode of TOTU is very memorable, to me anyway. In particular the scene at the end where the boy is far out at sea on top of the turtle. For some reason this has disturbed me from the time I first saw it as a child. I think it's the vulnerability of it all. Everyone has their weak spots in their psyche and I think that's what helped make TOTU so successful. It almost becomes personal. It affected everyone at one point or another within their 112 episodes. Although this episode troubled me, and still does to a point, I think it's one of TOTU's best!
