Overrated or Ghibli's masterpiece?

It's great but Mononoke Hime is Ghibli's greatest masterpiece

I find it hard to choose, they have very different themes

My fav's tied between the bitches castle in the sky and porco rosso, but I'm not sure if they're necessarily the best ones. Spirited away was definitely the most popular in the west. They all have pretty different themes.

Maybe a bit overrated but it's still my favourite movie by him. Things can become overrated for a reason.

Overrated for sure.

Excellent for sure, but the only reason it's considered anything more, is because even normies need their marginalized media too. And Ghibli provides exactly that, only it did it before most.

Difinitely one of my favorite works.

Anything from Nausicaa to Spirited Away is a masterpiece. There are no wrong answers from that period. Except Umi ga Kikoeru.

Absolutely over rated
The plot has no structure

good but overrated by western critics who have no familiarity with shintoism

best ghibli soundtrack by a mile

I can agree with that. I'd also say it has a lot do with the fact that they've not seen many anime films in general.
Still, a very solid film.

It's not Miyazaki's "magnum opus" if that's what you mean but it's still one of Ghibli's greatest works

>SHIT
Tales from Earthsea

*not Ghibli but still part of the canon

Kaguya is Takahata's weakest film, though still very good.
Nausicaa, Totoro, and Porco Rosso are Miyazaki's best films.
Omoide Poroporo and Grave of the Fireflies are the best anime films of all time.

>Things can be overrated for a reason
Do you know what overrated means?
If I understand right what you're saying, then this anime is overrated because it is the best one?

>Opinion disregarded. Lurk 100 years before posting.
Autism regarded. Go back to spamming loli threads on Sup Forums.

being the same tier as poppy hill is pretty damn shitty. Howl at least as pretty visuals and cat returns is fun, but feels like a direct to video.

It's a masterpiece.
And it's also overrated.
People love it to death likely because it's the first good anime movie they've seen.
But it's still a masterpiece.
