The ending with thousands of butterflies (likely hundreds of thousands or more) reminds me of a scene out of Mushi-shi or the tree spirits in Mononoke Hime. the episode is called Pretense of Spring. The scene itself is around 18:08. Easily a favorite scene from the movie, haha. I'd be interested in seeing if there's any research into the specifics of what happens to the body of the caterpillar during its final shedding.
