i'm obsessed with all of them but there's something about kiki's delivery service that just hits me

[aminagrcic]

For me it's all the movies, but Howl's Moving Castle is what has the most "dreamy" vibes

[ikaro]

Even tho Whisper of the Heart doesn't have any fantastical elements outside Shizuku's book, it's the one that makes me feel the more dreamy. There's something about her everyday life, her cute little romance and her journey to write her book that feels so magical to me without having any magical aspect really. I think it's a really underrated ghibli movie, the majority of people think it's boring because it's not a fantasy one, but I think it's one of the best ever made cause it doesn't need those magical elements to feel dreamy

I like ghibli Movies because there is no Social Media, no Phones... They are all living in the Moment

One of the ideas Princess Mononoke expresses is that nothing is 100% bad or 100% good, it was my first movie and I can't describe my feelings when I watch this movie.

[jademorris]

Howl's moving castle has always stood out to me. I've always oddly identified with howl he's dramatic, overly emotional, cowardly but he's always trying to do his best for others and still has a very good heart :)

For me Ghibli movies are a form of escape from my busy city. Its like everything is slowing down and that I can reconnect with my inner child again. When I watch them I imagine my futur home, surrounding by grass, trees, a little garden, sweet animals and children running around. This is why my favorite scene for sure is in my Neighbor's Totoro when the trees start to grow really fast in the garden

We all live inside a (Ghibli) dream...

[carolinerolama]

I’m right now rewatch a Ghibli movies and see them as old person it’s so different. I’m so amazed how deep and beautiful these cartoons. Especially I love how much attention is paid to nature, environment problems and relationships between girl and boy (not romance, but support and care as friends)🥺💖✨

I grew up watching spirited away and it never failed to make me cry to this day

[anachacon]

I love all Ghibli movies but Howl's Moving Castle just makes me feel something so magical and dreamy I cannot describe. Every element of this movie is perfectly placed to make us feel all the magic of the story, as well as every character and the imagery of the movie.

lady eboshi isn’t evil at all really, she’s only the antagonist of this very specific story because her goals go against the protagonists’. she’s the good guy of her own story and she doesn’t WANT to hurt anyone for the sake of doing so, she just wants what’s best for her people

[nenes]

great video and analysis!!! ghibli's magic "systems" are so open, unruled and unstructured (in a good way)...when you usually watch western fantasy films, fantasy aspects are normally very layered, categorized... take harry potter for example!! yet, ghibli's openness leaves room for wonder, for the viewer to put their own feelings and emotions and meanings to the mix... it's what makes them special :)

nausicaa of the valley of the wind is so underrated, it’s such a magical movie!

[evuxs]

My ultimate favorite is Kiki's delivery service, there's just something very close and personal to me in there, the experiences of Kiki remind me of things I cannot describe. The way she has to fly far away and create her life somewhere else for a long time, how Kiki tries her best to deliver the supplies, even though rain is pouring and she has other things to attend to. I especially loved the scene where Kiki helped granny bake the pie for the snobby grandkid, it just shows that she is different from the spoiled kids, that she cares and appreciates all the little things. Theres a scene where Kiki meets up with artist Ursula once again and takes a trip with her to regain her flying abilities, I think it was such a reliefing scene, becouse the atmosphere felt so warm, yet so surreal. I also love that the animation was made in a 1950's manner, the vintage elements are so ethereal. When Kiki was bored sitting and working at the bakery, all she had to do was watch the view from the window, and occasionally noticed people going by there, like the fancy lady who was a designer, as Kiki mentioned how she would want to be more like her. Also she was quiet on the scene where I noticed a girl with a big hat and flowy long summer dress, hopping on on a motorscooter and driving off with some boy. I don't know why but I really enjoy these things that happen outside of the main characters world, things that the viewer gets to see which are totally unrelated to the story itself, but more to portray something more that is happening behind the scenes, so there's all the room to reimagine the world how you want to see it. Anyways, I could write a whole book about each Ghibli movie, but I don't have the patience 'nor need to write all of that, as many people have ideas of their own :)

Loved what you said about not all female leads having to be strong...
I feel like that's being neglected these days and it's really important

[oliviabroussard]

The music in howls moving castle puts me in that dream state💜🎼

[luzperras]

Kiki’s Flying Delivery was my first film and the flying with the Soaring song is so iconic and dreamy to me! Flying, traveling, talking cat companion, cute bakery 🧁, I can go on why I find Kiki’s world so dreamy ⭐️

Spirited away really feels like a dream to me because I watched it when I was very young (I think I was 6 years old) and I never had saw anything like this animation before! And when I watched it, it was late at night, so I thought for a long time that I was dreaming! It was really weird when I realized it was a real movie!
