Why? Why not? So give your personal ranking the Ghibli films you’ve seen.

Here’s mine, From most liked to least. Fluctuations are subject go change depending on mood, or course.

Porco Rosso
Whisper of the Heart
Kiki’s Delivery Service
The Cat Returns
Spirited Away
Grave of Fireflies
Laputa: Castle in The Sky
Pom Poko
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Winds
Howl’s Moving Castle
Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea
Princess Mononoke (but I’ve only seen the dub so…)
Tales from Earthsea

I’ve always had an interest in planes so I guess it’s not surprising that some of my enjoyment of Porco Rosso is just the machines themselves.

#2

Spirited Away
Kiki’s delivery service

Unforunetly that’s all I’ve seen by Ghibli. Spirited away was one of the best films I’ve ever seen so I hope to see more soon. :stuck_out_tongue: Specifcally Ponyo and Howl’s moving castle. :wink:

Spirited Away
Howl’s Moving Castle
Princess Mononoke
Grave of the Fireflies (only because of its profoundness, I can’t bear to watch it again because it’s too heartbreaking)
Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea
Tales of Earthsea

I want to watch Kiki, Totoro and Laputa next. :smiley:

  1. Howl’s Moving Castle
  2. Spirited Away
  3. Kiki’s Delivery Service
  4. Porco Rosso
  5. My Neighbour Totoro
  6. Princess Mononoke

For me, Howl’s Moving Castle and Spirited Away are the ones that really shine. As much as I dislike Billy Crystal, I really do like him in the dub of Howl’s Moving Castle as Calcifer. Aside from that one, I prefer watching them in Japanese with the subtitles. It just doesn’t feel right to hear the characters speaking English.
