The only exception to this rule is Tonari no Totoro. Everyone knows what movie that means in any language.

Yea but then I‘d just call it Totoro because everyone will still get it. Same with Mononoke.

Agreed, but it frustratingly makes the series Mononoke more difficult to talk about, because you always have to say “mononoke, not princess”

Good series btw

If you seriously asking this, it translates to ‘My Neighbor Totoro’ in english

Mononoke Hime seems pretty obvious.
