Eboshi Gozen Reviews

Anime: Princess Mononoke

Despite being the major antagonist of Princess Mononoke, Lady Eboshi isn’t an evil person.

She’s arrogant, outspoken, and sometimes brutal, but she’s only trying to protect her clan.


Nonetheless, her authoritarianism comes out as the movie progresses, proving her allegiance to steel over nature and cementing herself as a martyr towards human progression – even if it means sacrificing the environment.

Eboshi is a complex and interesting character with a great vocal performance, not to mention some shocking scenes.
