  • Any Studio Ghibli fans here? (the Japanese animation movie company)

    I've lived in Japan for a while, and studied the language a lot longer, but have never really indulged in Japanese anime or comics (manga). But I just watched "Castle in the Sky" (tenkuu no shiro) a bit ago and really enjoyed it. I've watched "Grave of the Fireflies" (hotaru no haka) years ago as well, which is really good, but a bit heart wrenching (it's about two children, a brother and his younger sister's, plight during World War 2, after losing their family in an air raid). These two films were made in 1986 and 88, respectively (their first 2 films), but they are still producing films. I think I now have to watch them all, I guess I'd might as well continue from the oldest to the present.

    Btw, here is the wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Ghibli), all the titles right their for your convenience for bootlegging, or I mean purchasing.

    It's the most famous of the animation studios, being Miyazaki's. Grave of the Fireflies is probably the saddest film ever.

      Grave of the Fireflies is real depressing.

        Yes Sir

        High production value and there's always a message in their movies.
