Studio Ghibli fans: who's your favorite Studio Ghibli character?

[smahala1991]

I would pick Kiki from Kiki's Delivery Service, because I can relate to her as I'm adulting and trying to find my place in the world.

Arrietty


She’s so interesting to know more about. Playing Zelda Minish Cap growing up I always wondered what it would be like to be the size of a human thumb and live with humans without knowing you’re there. The movie made it really interesting and and the art is gorgeous. She’s a pretty good character and I like her bravery. Too bad the ending sucked.

Look up Borrowers or the Littles. Arrietty is based on these.

[smahala1991]

@JohnQue74 Arrietty is actually in the borrowers

[JohnQue74]

Ah. Been awhile since I saw them. So it is a Borrower tale

[Citizenkirk]

I'm not familiar with the series, but am intrigued. Who do you recommend?

[smahala1991]

It's basically like Japanese Disney. I prefer Spirited Away or Kiki's Delivery Service, both are on HBO Max

[DizzyDesii]

@Citizenkirk Definitely watch Spirited Away, Ponyo and Grave of the Fireflies

[Citizenkirk]

@DizzyDesii are those like Pixie Fairies?

[DizzyDesii]

Spirited Away has different spirits/creatures that the girl meets while trying to save/reunite with her parents. Ponyo is like a kids version of Little Mermaid in my opinion. But it has a cool take on it. Grave of the Fireflies is like war-based and focuses on malnutrition. Very good sad film

[Citizenkirk]

@DizzyDesii the name sounds familiar. Does the girl have an eccentric uncle that she's visiting?

[DizzyDesii]

No spirited away is about losing her parents to a spell and trying to get them back. Ponyo is about a girl running away from home to live life on land. Grave of the fireflies is about orphans after the war. I think they lived with a mean aunt for a short but but can't remember. Its been years

[Citizenkirk]

@DizzyDesii I'll look them up

[Citizenkirk]

Thanks for MHG

[DizzyDesii]

Definitely Chihiro from Spirited Away. We both start off as scary but we become courageous soon enough

[Blonde401]

I have two ghibli tattoos! I’m a huge fan. Haku from spirited away is my favourite :)

[SnakeBoop]

Ah, I love Kiki's Delivery Service. Though I say Jijiis my favourite.

[msc545]

I am not a Studio Ghibli fan, and honestly have no idea what it is actually.

[Sum1Stpd]
