The clever design, subtle enough that you might miss it at first glance but distinctive enough that you’ll always notice it after, is the work of Chinese artist Huang Hai. His take on Totoro has been drawing praise both in China and Japan, and is so artistic that one commenter sees parallels with The Ball, one of the works of 18th/19th century Swiss/French painter Felix Vallotton.
也许吧，但是更有说服力的解释是，这些深色部分是龙猫让人超想拥抱的大肚子上的几簇灰毛。
尽管有些观众将《龙猫》和《爱丽丝梦游仙境》相比，但据说这部电影的灵感源自导演宫崎骏本人的成长经历。
海报的设计是如此微妙，看第一眼时可能会忽略其中暗藏的玄机，但它又是如此独特，所以最后你总会发现。这款设计巧妙的海报出自中国艺术家黄海之手。他的这一作品在中国和日本都大获赞赏，一位评论者甚至认为这幅海报的艺术价值和18-19世纪的瑞士/法国画家菲利克斯·瓦洛东的油画《球》持平。
But then, as your eyes follow in the direction of Mei’s outstretched hand, you notice a few darker patches. Are these metaphors for the sadness and hardships that are also part of growing up? Shadow cast by clouds, further reinforcing the atmosphere of watching the scene from above?
但是，顺着小梅伸手的方向看去，你会注意到有几块地方颜色较深。这是不是对成长过程中悲伤和苦难的一种隐喻呢?如果这是云朵投下的影子，是否为了加深俯视的感觉呢?
如上所述，《龙猫》是在中国影院正式上映的第一部吉卜力电影，如果票房不错，我们很可能会看到吉卜力的其他电影(除了《龙猫》还有20部)在国内上映。但愿也有同样美丽的海报。
As mentioned above, "My Neighbor Totoro" is the first Ghibli film to have a theatrical release in China, but if it does well at the box office, we can probably expect to see some of the studio’s 20 other films get a similar treatment, and hopefully similarly beautiful posters.
在电影中，姐姐小月和妹妹小梅去医院看望了生病的母亲，而宫崎骏年幼时母亲也曾因患上脊柱结核而卧床不起。
对于国内的70后、80后和90后来说，《龙猫》承载了童年的回忆，因而具有特别的意义。据说，这部电影的灵感源于宫崎骏本人的成长经历。
网友QY之下月于：看的第一部宫崎骏的作品就是《龙猫》。我记得当时是全班一起看的，提到它就回想起那个晚上，真的是过去很久很久了，那时候那种大家一起看电影的感觉真好，欠它一张电影票，今天还上。
永远的龙猫，永远的宫崎骏，永远的童年经典。
Perhaps, but the more likely explanation is that they’re the gray tufts of fur on Totoro’s eminently huggable tummy.
smack dab: 不偏不倚地，恰好
宫崎骏的母亲是一个自由思想家，鼓励儿子们要对事情持有怀疑态度，她勇敢、充满活力和自由自主，所以这也成为了宫崎骏笔下大多数主角所具有的特质。
《龙猫》受人喜爱还因为该片的“纯真”——影片中没有坏人，也没有打斗场面。手绘的乡村田园景色重点是要唤起人们对大自然的爱。
网友祝融烛龙烛九阴：《龙猫》这张海报让我回到了小时候某个夏天，在电视机面前盯着屏幕上的龙猫，旁边电风扇吹出来的风像是现在还能感受得到。
这款朴素淡雅的中国版海报将宫崎骏的名字显眼地放在海报的正中央，海报上小月跟着小梅穿越一片高高的“草丛”。海报采取了从高空往下看的视角，小小的人儿在广袤美丽的世界中徜徉，无限元宝网页游戏私服，用优雅的方式让人们意识到她们是如此的年轻和充满潜力。
黄海的海报让国内的宫崎骏粉丝们沸腾了：

In the film, sisters Satsuki and Mei visit their ailing mother in hospital, echoing a young Mr Miyazaki who watched his mother recover from a severe case of spinal tuberculosis.
tuft[tft]: n. 一簇
My Neighbour Totoro is also often celebrated for its "innocence" - there are no villains or fight scenes - and its hand-drawn scenes of idyllic country fields, placing a strong emphasis on cultivating an appreciation for nature.
While some viewers draw parallels with Alice in Wonderland, the film was said to have been inspired by director Hayao Miyazaki's own experiences growing up.
The Chinese poster, with Miyazaki’s name displayed proudly smack dab in the center, is beautifully understated in its aesthetics, showing Satsuki following Mei through what appears to be a field of tall grass. The perspective, gazing down on the girls from far above, elegantly reminds us of how young and full of potential they are by drawing the characters as such small representations, with so much of the wide, wonderful world waiting in front of them.
