And thus we come to the end.

I've now completed this marathon and I thoroughly enjoyed doing it. Below is the films in an order of personal viewing preference as at this moment, those on the same line are just that I couldn't decide where exactly they lay with respect to each other.

My Neighbor Totoro
NausicaƤ of the Valley of the Wind, Castle in the Sky, Princess Mononoke
Ponyo
Whisper of the Heart, The Cat Returns
Howl's Moving Castle
Only Yesterday
Kiki's Delivery Service, Spirited Away
Pom Poko
Porco Rosso
Ocean Waves
Tales from Earthsea
My Neighbors The Yamadas


I have kept this one separate as it is not one I would easily repeat view.

Grave of the Fireflies

I can see Ponyo moving up places though as I view it more.

Thank you those who read my reviews and also thanks to those who commented.

Dave

Thanks for that. A very nice, well written and thought out article. I loved some of the comments afterwards and have to agree with one theme that kept appearing in that Ghibli should do Phillip Pullman's "His Dark Materials".

Hey Dave, I'm back with more Ghibli links! This time for an announcement from Mondo about a new series of posters Olly Moss is working with the studio on. If you don't know of Olly, it's worth seeking him out. He reinvents posters and has a wonderfully quirky and very clever style that cuts right to the heart of any particular film. Meanwhile Mondo sell very limited print runs of similarly unique interpretations. Some of them are gorgeous and I'd love to catch one. Apparently the Ghibli one is due on Friday.
