I wasn’t able to come across a closely related video, apart from the one we viewed in class. But this video is partly accurate in showing the moments leading up to Manago being revealed as a demon, then having to suffer the consequences. She still tried to convince people that she was not evil.
The only difference really, is in “Bewitched” there was no one vouching for Manago or Maroya to be forgiven. And Manago definitely was not asking for forgiveness. She continued on, unabashedly, with her evil. “What manner of grudge are you holding against me, asking others to put me out of the way? If you persist in trying to eliminate me, I shall be forced to be cruel not only to you but also to all the people of this community. Be happy over my undeviating love for you. And never, never transfer your love to another woman.” As if she were not a demon.
Deception was a major theme in “Bewitched” as well as in the story I chose to connect it to, “Barrel Maker Brim Full of Love”.
———————————————–
“He is not one of us”, Manago will never be a real human, thereby resulting in her constantly having to adapt to different forms so that she can blend in and not be noticed. But really, it puts people on alert and eventually will cause a stirrup. Then some type of destruction will take place. As in the video all the animals gathered around to hear the judgement of Kuvo, for being the one that was supposed to assassinate Simba, and take over the throne, the judgement was one the other animals obviously agreed with (except for one) and ran him out of the village.
& in the story..
While they were visiting Mount Yoshino.
“Manago and Maroya deliberately turned their backs on him and pretended not to have seen him standing there. But the old man had already recognized them. ‘You devils!’ He grumbled. ‘Again you are bewitching and deceiving human beings. How can you assume that shape and form before my very eyes!'”
She had bewitched someone before, this time she was caught and revealed during her attempt to bewitch Toyo-o. Which lead to her death.
