Is there an industry term for the movie format in which the protagonist walks into another world and tries to escape, only to discover that the other world is actively fighting back and is keen on making them a permanent resident? I became a fan of a certain character from Spirited Away six months before I watched it for real, and I just finished watching The Cat Returns. Both of those movies follow this fish-out-of-water story dynamic, and I must say that it's one of my favorite genres!
it’s called the amazing digital circus pilot
(ok but fr i don’t really know if that type of movie has a name)
