I feel such a nerd watching this animes but I so completely love the work of Myazaki and Studio Ghibli. I don't think I will ever stop loving and watching it, every story is so unique and the drawings are amazing! I'm going to leave you with some of the films I've seen this week and also some of my favorite ones.
So this week I've watched 3, get a life, right? The first one was Kiki's Delivery Service. It's a story about a 13 year old girl who is going to initiate her life as a witch spending 1 year away from home. Totally loved it and think her cat is so so cute. I wish I had one myself...
My Neighbor Totoro. The story of 2 little girls that have their mom in the hospital and just moved to a country house with their father. The fun begins when they discover that the house and the woods surrounding it have some magical creatures. In my opinion it wasn't as good as Kiki's but so worth seeing and Totoro is really funny.
Ponyo. This is a story based on the Little mermaid original tale. Ponyo is a fish that wants to be a human. That becomes possible when she meets her friend Sasuke, a boy who is going to help her through a number of adventures. I liked it very much specially because Sasuke and Ponyo are always so cute to each other...
Howl's Moving Castle (I watched this one a while ago, definitely my favorite one so far, liked it so much that bought the DVD.) A story about a girl that is cast a spell and ends up being old. Sophie then goes to The Land of Nothing to find Howl and his moving castle so she can be a young girl again. Needless to say she has a number of adventures and ends up falling in love with Howl. Seriously you got to watch it, the story is so lovely...
There are a number of other ones worth watching as well (Spirited away, Princess Mononoki....) if you have the time and like animation go for it you wont regret it.

I've heard so many positive things about Myazakis animes and really need to take the time to see them. I remember being totally obsessed with japanese animes when I was ten, so it's kind of nostalgia for me :D Thank you for sharing! it was nice to be reminded of this.
ReplyDeleteSpirited Away is my favorite! I also like Totoro and have never seen Kiki's Delivery Service, but I would like to! Howl's moving castle sounds cool, too :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great animated movie. I have seen it several times with my kids.
