Propaganda under the cut.
Lady Eboshi:
She relentlenssy fights the wolves (including San who is wolfgender) and destroys nature, to maintain the activity of her mine. But she does not do it for greed. She does it to protect sex workers and lepers. To protect marginalized people. She may be an "antagonist" (if they were an antagonist in the movie) but she's not a bad person, just a good person that destroys nature (like so many IRL humans).
Listen. She was good to her village people, especially the women. Took care of leprosy patients when no one else would. Very empowering girlboss. I hate her very much. She wanted to destroy the mountain and the forests for resources and caused great harm to the nature spirits, animals, and animal gods that lived there. Fuck her. Morally gray but I'd fight her to the death. With regret
Princess Azula:
homegirl was only 14 and scarier than her dad but let's be fr, her mum saw her as a monster back when she was a kid bc no one taught her how to be gentle. she was ozai's golden child born and raised to be his puppet. sure she's not a good person nor did she do good things but c'mon she was never given the chance or space to be good. the amount of unexplored potential in her is astronomical. also her lines are just iconic
She tries to kill people with lightning, and is controlling/manipulative of her friends and Zuko. However, she is very cool, so I think this should be allowed.
honestly what do you even say about azula that *hasn't* been said. she's a psychologically fascinating villain, evil yet so complicated and interesting to watch, she's so intriguing and well written. her immoralness mixed with seeing her Feel made her so so interesting to watch. she's an excellent cautionary tale and just a wonderful antagonist. definitely one of the most memorable parts of the show for me
She has never ONCE genuinely apologized for anything in her entire life. Everything she did was on purpose and with the direct intention of furthering her own goals and fucking everybody else over. Firelord of my heart.

I can't tell how much I want to scream when I saw Soulframe's gameplay during Tennocon 2023. I heard it was inspired by Princess Mononoke and I immediately notices the resemblance of themes or inspiration parallels between the game and the movie.
protag's arm being replaced or cursed and both of them are exiled from their community
Lady Eboshi and Lady Deora
Torment Stag's form is similar to the Forest Spirit turning into the Nightwalker
There are more obvious references like the protag has a wolf mount just like San, how the use of metalworking or iron corrupts the land, etc. I also see TVTropes have already been put out for Soulframe but I haven't seen anyone mentioning Princess Mononoke being part of the reference or inspiration.
