So, this question is mostly just for readers of the novel, since it's not really relevant to the movie. Howl is from Wales and all, but is he from some version of Wales in the future?

Cars (or "carriages without horses", as Sophie put it XD), video games, television... all of these made an appearance when Howl, Michael, and Sophie traveled to Megan's house. Is Ingary just really behind the times, or is Howl's hometown existing in the future? Is there any explanation for this? Am I reading too much into things? Are the people of Wales just really savvy in the novel's world?

I found this a bit confusing, so I thought I'd ask if anyone knows what's going on with it.

i was shocked when HOWL's niece wanted to have a new video game... i think HOWL travels time too.. that was a mystery to me. the twists in the story was a bit confusing.

when i read of it too i was really shocked. dont worry... we share the same feelings. the writer didnt explain that part. so i guess its up to us readers to analize things in our own ways...

Magic and Technology don't really work together; so when it comes to creating alternate worlds, you pick advancement through technology or magic.
