Whispers Of The Heart is one of my all time favorites... you should watch The Cat Returns as well, it is about the little cat statue in that movie, but nothing really else is related. |
yeah. all great movies. i love the ghibli stuff specifically for the drawing style. hate the sailormoon-kind of drawings.
but the thing that really shocked me about anime (ghibli in particular) is how profound the idea of the animation can go, how close to life things are depicted and how much emphasis is put on small details (like mimics, objects on tables, background objects, shadows). some of those animations have pretty much the same power and profoundness as, for instance, Forrest Gump or Bicentennial Man. And Grave of the Fireflies is .... well.... it makes you feel something special.. you can't put it in words.
