A plain young hatter named Sophie has her life changed when an evil witch transforms her into an old woman. Unable to face her family in such a condition, Sophie runs away in search of a way to become young again. Along the way, Sophie helps a turnip headed scarecrow, who repays her by leading her to the moving castle owned by the dreaded wizard Howl. There she befriends Howl's apprentice Markl, Howl's fire demon Calcifer, and eventually, Howl himself. Sophie then becomes the castle's cleaning lady in an effort to not only find the solution to her problem but to save Howl from his own terrible secrets as well.

    Ponyo is pretty good, nothing to much action packed, just a nice love story type comedy, Princess Mononoke is great, Spirited Away is one of my favorites and amazing too, My Neighbor Totoro is pretty good, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind is another one of my favorites.

    I like Howl's, it has some differences compared to the books but it's still a great watch.

    Agreed. Spirited Away is also my favorite. I've only watched 3 ghibli's movies : Totoro, Howl's, and Spirited Away. Haven't wathed ponyo yet but people keeps saying good things about this one so I'm gonna watch it this week. The Borrowers Arrietty seems nice, they are just airing it in japan but there's no other news about it :( .
