What do you think about Miyazaki and Ghibli? What are his best films?
I haven't seen that much, Spirited Away and Totoro, and didn't really care that much for them.
I loved Tale of Princess Kaguya, Whisper of the Heart and Grave of the Fireflies though.
Most of them are boring or insultingly bad
Sasuga of normalfag tier movies
Grave of the Fireflies is a movie that I legitimately will not watch again. I remember watching it as a kid and it made me really fucking sad. Haven't seen it since I was 8 and I don't plan on seeing it again. Weird thing is that I remember the plot really vividly despite having not seen it in so many years. That's how I know it was a good movie.
I respect him, but I’ve always preferred Takahata.
Seems weird no one on here ever talks about him or his films.
Nausica is fugging amazing, watch it immediately
I liked Mononoke well enough, and my friend considers Porco Rosso to be one of his all-time favourite movies period.
Miyazaki's my favourite director, probably. I think all his works are excellent but Totoro and Wind Rises are maybe my favourites. Ghibli as a studio is of course great, if only because it housed two of the best directors ever
Whisper of the Heart I don't care much for. It's just a bit too sentimental, which is probably due to the source material being a manga. As for my favorite Miyazaki, I'd probs have to go with Spirited Away.
I was gonna read the manga first, how is it?
