Hello guys. Have you ever heard of "Ghibli Films?" Ghibli Films or Studio Ghibli, Inc is a Japanese animation and studio that create and come up with best animated movies. The movies can be enjoyed by anyone , even someone who don't even like anime. They create such amazing movies. The background, the sounds, the character design and the plot. Ghibli also makes a good fantasy, mythology, legends and the movies are easy to understand. I love Ghibli Films. And some of my personal favorites are: Spirited Away, My Neigbor Totoro, Laputa: Castle in the Sky, Kiki's Delivery Service, Conan the Detective, Nautica and oh too many to mention. How about you, have you ever seen or watched a Ghibli Movies? Or if not yet, why not try to take peek at some of the said movies and let me/us know how'd you find the movie.

Did they make those animated japanese films!? I'm going to check them out. I always loved Spirited Away and Laputa! I think I have seen most of the animations. What I love about these animes is that it's realistic and it touches on very serious and touching subjects. Most animes that you see today are just weird, imitating other animes and they're not all that great with no real story. It's always those pointless animes that drag on onto like 50 volumes and you're just asking yourself, when will it end? I like animated films that are movies and you see the whole story unfold in one go of 2 hours. Who wants to watch something that drags on so that the company can make more money? Truly, Ghibli Films are the true animators that make such works of art. I always cried in those animations. hey make you laugh, cry and feel suspense, no other anime beats them. They've dated back years ago and they are still making I reckon the best japanese animations.

Yes, as far as i know the Ghibli Studio made the Spirited Away and Laputa.. and most of the popular animated films too. Yeah i totally agree with you. It's much much better to watch japanese anime especially the Ghibli Films rather than watching the series or by volumes. I hope that you will find time to watch the other movies and for sure you'll gonna enjoy it. Enjoy and happy watching :)

Thanks, I have seen few. They use to be on every night on my SBS channel here in Australia but then they stopped. There's a recent one called Ponyo I think and it looks pretty cute. I like how the movies dwell upon very serious and human issues but of course in a metaphorical or symbolic way like global warming but within a different and fantasy context. It's the school break for me so I'm planning to watch the rest.
