Kiki's Delivery Service
Laputa
Spirited Away
Laputa and Spirited Away.
Then I'm torn between Kiki and Porco Rosso.
Only Yesterday
The Tale of Princess Kaguya
My Neighbors the Yamadas
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
Nausicaa
I don't give a fuck if these are the most common answers. The acclaim for specific Ghibli movies is one of those things that the consensus is completely correct on.
Umi ga Kikoeru
Kaguya no Hime
Only Yesterday
1. Totoro
2. Mononoke
3. Nausica
undisputable
Kiki's Delivery Service
Porco Rosso
Third is either Princess Mononoke or Castle in the Sky
So Ghibli is a Maghreb Arabic word for a Mediterranean wind current that originates in Africa.
Do you think perhaps that Laputa is an homage then to Carthage given the origins of the word?
>Kiki
>Porco Rosso
>Only Yesterday
literally me
Rewatching it these days I don't know if Porco Rosso would be my favorite. But it's the first one I saw as a kid, and I just remember being blown away by it, and how serious some scenes felt. I had never seen an animated film tackle themes and atmosphere like that before and the feeling really stuck with me.
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
The Tale of Princess Kaguya
Ponyo is my favourite lol
Howl
Spirited Away

I forget that's one of the few I still haven't seen.
Give the manga a try too if you get the chance. They are both really good.

Is the movie an abridged take on the manga as a whole, or does the manga continue beyond it?
Manga continues beyond it. I think the film just adapted the first ~16 or so completed chapters available at the time. Miyazaki continued working on the manga for another decade when he wasn't directing.
Porco Rosso
Whisper of the Heart
Laputa: Castle in the Sky
Mentioning Kiki as well because it's tied with Laputa and fuck you.
Princess Mononoke
Porco Rosso
My Neighbors the Yamadas
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind would take the place of My Neighbors the Yamadas IF it was made by Studio Ghibli.
