07.02.22 | 1 and 2 are practically tied. |
DaveyMonsoon
07.02.22 | Mononoke is 1 for me, though Spirited might not be too far behind. Totoro and Howl should be higher imo. Interesting placement for Wind Rises too. |
Gyromania
07.02.22 | Ponyo is way too low. Haven't seen 1, princess mononoke is good but vastly overrated. Kiki at 7 is nice, that's such a good coming-of-age film |
foxblood
07.02.22 | 24 looks like the worst shit imaginable. good ranking tho. Ponyo is a little low. Whisper of the Heart is one that I always liked a lot. |
Zac124
07.02.22 | Tbf, Ponyo is one I really need to rewatch. |
foxblood
07.02.22 | From Up on Poppy Hill was pretty weak for me, as was Tales From Earthsea. |
foxblood
07.02.22 | Ponyo is really solid. even though it is the most generally appealing almost-western style animated movie they have ever made, I think it's one of their best. |
BaselineOOO
07.02.22 | Weird ranking. Here's mine:
1. Totoro
2. Spirited Away
3. Kiki
4-24. Irrelevant |

Weird ranking. |

07.02.22 | Howl nausica and totoro are too low but I think you caught lightning in a bottle with your snes list and it will be the only time you ever make a list that doesn’t inspire suicidal ideation |
foxblood
07.02.22 | isn't that because the snes list was by CaliggyJack? did Zac ever make a SNES list? |
Trebor.
07.02.22 | Only Yesterday is a revelation |

07.02.22 | Oh I Thougut this was caliggy 😂😂😂😂😂😂 |
bgillesp
07.02.22 | 5 is 1 for me so I’m glad to see it so high. Haven’t seen 2 yet |
TalonsOfFire
07.02.22 | Don’t know how I’d rank cause a few of these I haven’t seen since I was little. Princess Mononoke, My Neighbor Totoro, and Spirited Away are best. Castle in the Sky, Nausicca, Howls Moving Castle, and The Wind Rises are my next favs in no order. Kiki’s Delivery Service and Ponyo are pretty good and cute, best for children. |
Maniac!
07.02.22 | grave is a 5/5 for sure |
Kompys2000
07.02.22 | Props for putting the wind rises that high, really thoughtful, beautiful film despite being more low-key and serious.
That said Kaguya is like three times longer than it needed to be and the narration is almost Blade Runner levels of unnecessary, honestly wouldn't make my top 15 and I haven't even seen every Ghibli yet |
JohnnyoftheWell
07.02.22 | princess mononoke is good but vastly overrated [2] anyone who sticks that film more than (hmm) 2 places above Nausicaa has question to answer, cough up !
that said, i am still way behind on the ghibli universe more widely. Wind Rises is next, i think |
menawati
07.02.22 | shit had no idea so many, spirited away i saw that was fantastic though |
mkmusic1995
07.02.22 | Howl's Moving Castle is definitely in the top 5 for me along with Grave of the Fireflies, Spirited Away and Totoro |
Kompys2000
07.03.22 | I have Mononoke at 2 and Nausicaä at 6 but my whole top 7 is a hella tight race |
Cryptkeeper
07.03.22 | Porco Rosso at a 3.5 is a travesty, if only because it proves Miyazaki can make a banger movie without endlessly resorting to the magical girl discovers the world trope |
Kompys2000
07.03.22 | Susan Egan as Gina is one of the best English voice performances in Ghibli, right up there with Billy Crystal as Calcifer/Minnie Driver as Eboshi |
BAT
07.03.22 | nice ranking, surprised to see nausicaa at 10 buuut ghibli movies are generally pretty high quality. castle is probably my #1 |
Sharenge
07.03.22 | hmmmm in no particular order my top 5 is probably
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
Nausicaä
Castle in the Sky
My Neighbor Totoro
been meaning to check Tales from Earthsea for some time
I remember liking The Cat Returns more than 3.5/5
need to do a Ghibli marathon and (re)visit these |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
07.03.22 | Mononoke is vastly better than nausicaa and not overrated at all and it’s not up for debate |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
07.03.22 | That being said it’s still probably not more than a couple spots above nausicaa regardless |
Sinternet
07.03.22 | "princess mononoke is good but vastly overrated [2] anyone who sticks that film more than (hmm) 2 places above Nausicaa has question to answer, cough up !"
good thing nausicaa is my number 3 then
but fr mononoke is my fave film ever |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
07.03.22 | Good boy |
Sabrutin
07.03.22 | Porco Rosso too low but I can dig this ranking
also just watched Spirited Away at the cinema last night, is it happening all around the world too? July-August cinemas in Italy are showing Spirited Away, Mononoke, Porco Rosso, Howl and Nausicaa |

07.03.22 | I first saw Laputa in 1988 when it was on the tele.
It had a bloody big impact on me, I’ll never forget it. |
Kompys2000
07.03.22 | Recently watched Laputa for the first time and was a little puzzled by all the high praise I'd seen, not bad by any stretch ofc but didn't have toooooo much setting it apart from the average PG adventure flick besides the animation. Almost comes off like Miyazaki was trying to play it safe while Ghibli were still making a name for themselves |

07.03.22 | Say that to 8yr old me and I’d have said you were talking absolute cobblers |

07.03.22 | Someone else has seen Pom Poko?
Mindblowing movie. |
Zac124
07.03.22 | Pom Poko is such an underrated film. Loved the Project Spector sequence. |
garas
07.03.22 | Nausicaa and Mononoke are my absolute favourites.
> Pom Poko is such an underrated film.
[2] |
Kompys2000
07.03.22 | Pom Poko is a weird one but probably my fav Takahata. The scene where they're watching TV and the one worker says the magic stuff is freaking him out but he can't afford to move away really struck me- such a ballsy move to portray deforestation as a complex issue with no easy answer, while also unambiguously standing against it. |
CalculatingInfinity
07.03.22 | Ponyo is way too low [2]
However, putting Kaguya so high and putting Howl in the lower end is very based. |
Egarran
07.03.22 | Howl is def top 5 for me. It's so romantic *swoon* |
Kompys2000
07.03.22 | Nah I vibe w/ Ponyo towards the bottom, kind of an annoying and kiddish movie even though it's very possibly the most visually gorgeous thing the studio's done |
