horror, mystery, slice of life, romance, mecha, drama, supernatural

Kaze Tachinu
I'm fan of Miyazaki work, but this film in particular isn't one of my favorites. With this, I'm not saying it's a bad film! You definitely should watch it, even if it's just once in your life.
If you are used to this director works, you'll quicky notice that Kaze Tachinu is different from any previous Miyazaki films since it does not employ fantastic elements in the story. This film is the biography of Jiro Horikoshi, the designer who created the famous japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter plane, one of the most deadliest planes used in World War II.
I can see why the film have divided the viewers' opinions, since Miyazaki humanized a character who has created so much destruction. Even so, the animation has a clear message of pacifism, a recurring theme in the work of this veteran japanese director. He is often told that flying is a "cursed dream" and Jiro is plagued by the corruption of war weapons from his desires to create something beautiful.
As is common in Miyazaki's work, the art of the film is dazzling. From the backgrounds painted to the plane portraits and to the special affection shown in the designs and calculations, everything is beautiful. The sound design is equally brilliant with the aircraft sounds resembling the whining of creatures and complements the beautiful accordion-based soundtrack of Joe Hisaishi, who also worked with the director on films such as Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away.
In the end, the film is Miyazaki's manner to show a celebration of human creativity and ingenuity, one that laments our capacity for destruction in the most poetic way possible.
Spirited Away
Winner of the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival and the Oscar for Best Animated Film, Spirited Away by Hayao Miyazaki is, without exaggeration, one of the best films of all time.
The movie begins with Chihiro, a spoiled and fearful girl, traveling with her parents to a new home. The family takes the wrong path and stops at the entrance of a mysterious tunnel. They then decide to see what is at the end of the passage and find... Well, I will not ruin the surprises (which are many) :p Chihiro has to save her parents and learn to overcome their fears and limitations in a story that can be classified as a modern fairy tale.
The plot is spectacular and completely free of violence and recommended for both children and adults.
(As always) The film has a spectacular animation, superior to any japanese production of that time and any non-3D American drawing. In fact, it's probably the all-time best-of-the-kind, conventional animation, a tribute to the enormous talent of the animators of Studio Ghibli (by Miyazaki himself) who outgrow every new turn.
Chihiro's journey takes back many of the author's old concepts, using elements from Mononoke, Kurenai no Buta and My Friend Totoro to produce a kind of definitive statement by Miyazaki in animation.
Also worthy of mention is the soundtrack, created by the habitual composer of the Ghibli films, Joe Hisaishi, that shows the competence of always complementing the images with perfection.
Anyway, there is really no negative points in the film. Some more cynical adults may find it somewhat childish (it is not!) and more sensitive children may be frightened by certain sequences, but nothing too much ;)
Howl's Moving Castle
Sophisticated and intelligent, Howl's Moving Castle is another triumphant feature film by Hayao Miyazaki.
Known by the strong female characters - though young -, fascinating creatures and beautiful surrealist scenarios, Miyazaki puts a new and relevant element in Howl's Moving Castle: a manifesto against war. The criticism is carried out with the usual good humor, but with a vision somewhat darker, thanks to the seriousness of the subject. Large-scale wars between wizards and impressive destruction machines parade through the big screen, but there's room for comic relief too-be it an asthmatic puppy or a little boy disguised as an old man. Miyazaki makes you think, but he also gives you space to smile.
As if the intelligent script was not enough, the production also slaps the face of those who believe that the traditional animation is dead and buried.
The basic idea of the film deals with a wandering sorcerer, Howl, and his rebelliousness in letting himself be dragged into war. But intertwined here are the stories of a young victim of an aging spell, the rivalry between two witches, and the fate of a small but powerful fire demon, Calcifer. Miyazaki skillfully develops each of these characters and shows us all their facets, revealing hearts and souls as few films - animated or otherwise - can. Under the hands of this master, japanese animation finds again the fantastic realism and surrealism. Decisive events in World War II, such as the bombing of London and Pearl Harbor, occur in a world where Howl hides in a castle with crow's feet, for example. It is precisely this narrative power that seduces the spectator, desirous of knowing the subtleties and motivations of all.
Kiki's Delivery Service
Miyazaki explores again the theme of the early maturation in children to handle certain responsibilities, but this time without the dramatic weight that the sisters carry in My Neighbor Totoro.
Noteworthy is to watch that in this universe, witches move freely among humans, who know of their conditions and admire them, in a way.
During the various adventures of Kiki, who also stands out is her black kitten, Jiji, a kind of voice of conscience that is always making very precise comments in front of some events.
The production design is one of the most striking of the films directed by Miyazaki, both because of the scenery that reminds a lot of European cities, with its alleys, preserved architecture and marked horizon, as well as the colors used in the costumes of the characters.
Even with all the fantasies present and the adventures very well created and developed, the script, as already mentioned, also brings up some important issues to be discussed, especially when we no longer know how to deal with certain blockages, anguishes and situations difficult times that we certainly spend at some moments in our lives. Undoubtedly, it is at this moment that the film has its high point, without forgetting, of course, the hilarious climax that brings to the screen a flying machine, so much appreciated by Miyazaki and almost always illustrated in his films.
Kiki's Delivering Service is a film that brings many valuable lessons between the lines, providing the viewers with good entertainment and reflections to keep and practice. Kiki is one of the most charismatic characters created by Miyazaki and her story promises to captivate everyone who meets her.
Omoide no Marnie
The film written and directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi is unmistakably a product of the Ghibli house.
The film tells a story of Anna, a lonely girl, sent by her tutors to live with her uncles at the seaside for health, and Marnie, a mysterious young woman who Anna believes it to be the fruit of her mind. Although the children's novel deals with recurring elements of postwar England (the loss of the family at a young age, the aristocracy as a ghost of the past), When Marnie Was There have the two main characteristics of the Ghibli films: contact with the nature and the female history of formation. When Marnie Was There replaces the delusions of buddhist background with a more contained drama of introspection and contact with the world. As a child who fears people's touch, Anna becomes a real teenager, open to experience, when nature reveals herself to her by the sea.
The supernatural appears in Yonebayashi's film as a pretext rather than as a transforming element in fact in Anna's story. Although the plot of When Marnie Was There unfolds between memories and dreams, it is the discovery of the touch that fundamentally frees the character: the contact with the sea water, the tracks and the short cuts in the bush, the dirt kimono. All Anna needs to grow is in nature, both pleasures and safety and the terrors of the unknown.
While romanticizing the scene in an almost metalinguistic way, Yonebayashi does not make this experience alienating. It may seem a shocking picture to us the moments when Anna awakens from dreams, thrown unconscious in the mud, face down, by the side of the road, but if there is anything in When Marnie Was There that is close to emulating the violence of the world, the pains of growth, are those moments of more direct communion with the earth.
British in origin, When Marnie Was There shows great respect for the elements, and the small gesture, which are some foundations of japanese culture.
Kurenai no Buta
A mustache pig flying a plane. Was he really a pig since he was born? Or someone who suffered a curse? These questions may be echoed in the mind of Porco Rosso's viewers.
The film takes place in Italy between the wars and this is perceptible from the beginning considering that the plane that Marco drives clearly shows the flag of the country in question. Even the characters talk about the consequences of the great depression in the country, and there is a whole reconstruction through the design of characters and some specific situations of the script.
At some point in the story, Marco loses his plane and resorts to an old friend to get him a new one. Thus, the elements that Miyazaki most likes to work come to the fore. In addition to the airplanes and other flying machines, the strength of women appears in the midst of a sexist society and was preparing to be dominated by the unbeatable qualities of women.
The spectator is introduced to Fio, a young engineer who projects a new plane to Marco and who calls all the women he knows in his neighborhood to help in the construction of it.
Miyazaki's script also deals beautifully with the inter-war, the rise of fascism and the consequences that a war can cause. In addition, the hero's journey and myth are deconstructed and shown in a new way. Also the animation still plays with the "easter eggs" (certain specific references scattered and hidden) and at one point we see a typewriter stamping the name of the studio Ghibli.
The quality of the animation is always a point to be observed in the films of Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli. And this time the viewer is graced with the mix of colors and the portrayal of an Italy different from the one commonly seen in most films. The relationships between the protagonist Marco and other characters are well worked, even with the little time that the film has. Also, the dialogues are funny and interesting in most scenes and it's just amazing to see Fio bouncing all the sexist jokes.
Even with certain rhythm problems, which spoil the beginning of the film a little, Porco Rosso is a fun movie that makes the viewer choose someone to cheer during the dead-locks that the characters put up. It is a film with several elements that mark the filmography of its director and that deserves to be seen by the charismatic characters that are presented on the screen.
Mimi wo Sumaseba
Whisper of the Heart can be cute and delicate even when you do not need it; manages to entertain and dazzle even that distant spectator. It's a good movie to cherish while trying to unravel the mysteries of the plot or cheer for the success of the characters.
In this film directed by Yoshifumi Kondu, we meet Tsukishima Shizuku, a 14-year-old student who spends most of her free time reading in the library. As the protagonist goes visiting the library, she is intrigued by the fact that many of the books she reads have also been read by a certain Amasawa Seiji. From then on, she decides to investigate who the person is.
The script was focused on the reality merged to the fantasy of escape, where the protagonist is in constant search for personal and fulfilling identity. At times the viewer will be able to follow some dreams of Shizuku that are very fun and provide good images and travel.
As the story progresses the viewer discovers who the mysterious Amasawa Seiji is, as well as venturing into the novels that tend to be forming around Shizuku.
The first and sweetest love is treated fairly delicately and sensitively. With the twists and turns that life gives them, the script will further explore the narrative of the protagonist and plunge into everything, or almost everything she was trying to express in her novel.
It's based on the manga of Aoi Hiragi, being the adaptation very happy to portray in a simple way the first choices that life compels us to make besides showing a beautiful first love, that results in a very captivating romance. The beautiful scenery created by the always competent Studio Ghibli contrasted with the fertile imagination of our protagonist are important points for the film.
Tamako Love Story
Who watched the anime knows that are two pillars that supported it: comedy and cuteness. Every event was done to amuse you or to think "oh so cute!".
One year after the end of the anime, the movie was released. For the viewers surprise, in the movie we will not have Dera as a main, what greatly shook the comedy pillar and opened the way for the relationship between Tamako and Mochizo to be deepened. Tamako Love Story's focus is entirely on exploring their feelings, what goes on in their heads. However, narratively speaking, the film does not offer anything special, it is a simple love story of two childhood friends in which a boy falls in love with a girl who only saw him as a friend.
In a novel-driven storyline, it's crucial that you cling to the characters to enjoy everything the play has to offer, but Tamako Market did not deepen their characters enough to make it possible... It is then that the director Naoko Yamada (also director of K-ON! and Tamako Market) comes into action. She managed to turn a simple love story into something visually charming. If in the anime her direction didn't shine so much, in Love Story it is like a ray of light penetrating to the soul. Frames and formidable use of lighting convey the feelings of the characters without them speaking a word. The delicacy with which certain scenes are conducted is a visual representation of what it is to feel love.
Along with the first love comes the maturation, and Kyoto Animation is known to be a specialist in humanize their characters, so this could not be left aside. Tamako had never faced any personal problems until she was surprised by Mochizo's statement. By having to deal with your feelings, this opens your eyes to other issues. She feels different but sees how everyone around her remains the same and realizes that they all have problems but need to get on with their lives regardless of that, something she could not do.
As for the soundtrack, I have nothing to comment on, except for a key song of the story "Koi no Uta". In fact, it already appears in the anime when Tamako's father past is introduced. This song is from a band that he had in his teens and was composed to conquer Tamako's mother. Tamako loves the song and, in Love Story, serves to help her try to deal with her feelings.
Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu
With a memorable first season, and a second season marked by an arc that tested the patience of the fans, Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu has one of the strangest and most well-made plots in the universe of japanese animation where her characters fit as a glove on it.
The movie "Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu", as the title refers to, tells how would be the world in which Suzumiya did not exist or at least not in the way we know. A world where Kyon was the only one to remember his friends, but they do not remember him. Therefore, Kyon must seek to understand what is really happening in the world. As if that were not enough, the protagonist will have to make a great choice, that was also the question that will be asked to the viewers: "do you really want to live your ordinary life or do you want to become special?".
Takemoto Yasuhiro managed to convey brilliantly the characters feelings. While the two seasons of the anime had a hasty and insane mood as the personality of Suzumiya Haruhi, this film carries the essence of two important characters: Kyon and Nagato Yuki.
Technically speaking, this film has above-average quality by the standards of 2010, the year of its release. The animation is at least gorgeous. The fluidity of the movements is really exceptional and the brightness used in the images gives everything a special touch. The soundtrack fuses perfectly with what is shown on the screen and soon viewers can begin to feel that they too are on a cold winter day. This cold climate is another great asset of animation. Everything is extremely quiet, slow, quiet, like the snow itself - or in japanese, Yuki ~
Perfect Blue
The works of Satoshi Kon are known for presenting stories that play with what is real and what is some kind of illusion or madness, and Perfect Blue is undeniably a work of this director.
Perfect Blue is, at first, a psychological thriller. The whole script of the film follows the main rules of the genre, beginning with the traditional split between spectator and character - throughout the narrative we must experience what the protagonist feels and understand the situations of her position.
Cinematographically, Perfect Blue's plans are very powerful. The protagonist is often between mirrors and glasses, which always hinders our perception of the real. We must remember that we are talking about a film of projection and change. The protagonist wants to leave the image of idol to become an actress.
On the other hand, because of Kon's habits, the script can be overshadow, but this is a good story, especially when we close it in the main character.
Seen from the technical context, the animation of the film isn't good. Not only does the art leave negative points in terms of quality, but also the movement of the characters in the scenario is rather precarious.
Congratulations for completing the task.

Well this turned out to be a Ghibli marathon which is perfectly fine by me. I love Studio Ghibli and could watch these over and over again and never get bored. Although I must say, so many needed a sequel. That's where you have to love people who have a creative imagination and the artist skills to back them up. I could go on and on about them but I will keep my opinions short. SPOILERS AHEAD!!
♥Sophie x Howl♥ Sophie was never plain and her and Howl looked perfect together. I so wanted to see Howl and Sophie in the future with their own kid alongside Calcifer and Markl. Curses for not letting us see that. As Calcifer says, "May all your bacon burn." >.<
This was the first Ghibli film I saw. I happened to catch part of it on TV one day. Haku's dragon form is absolutely beautiful. The "stink monster" shows you how disrespectful of nature we humans are. Poor No Face just wants to be loved. Again, we need to see Haku and Chiro meet again in the future.
Kiki sets out with just her familiar Jiji at 13. Wow! At least she meets good people (Osono and her husband, Ursula, Tombo, etc.) along the way to help her out. I say Kiki and Tombo get married and have kids. There's my sequel.
Poor Sheeta being chased by the narcissistic Muska. Enter Pazu to save the day along with the unlikely Dola Gang. Felt so bad for the last robot being up there by himself. At least he had his animal friends.
The innocent love of youth. Shizuku sure has one heck of an imagination. Seiji is by no means any less talented. She will become a famous author and he will become a famous violin maker. And they live happily ever after.
I was surprised to learn this was based on a real person. Makes you wonder if his dreams were anything like this. Beautiful love story between Jirou and Naoko but sad she's gone to soon especially from something that is preventable today.
Who hasn't thought about being a cat? Haru becomes one because of her self doubt but the Baron, as well as others, help he to gain her confidence. I like to think that the Baron was able to find his girlfriend.
I had a feeling from the start that there was something off about Marnie. Maybe Marnie couldn't move on over lingering regret and then after she meant and spent the summer with Anna, she was able to.
A little strange that no one cares that Marco is a pig. They just treat him like anyone else. Still I liked how persistent Fio is to accompany Porco Rosso. Too bad we only get to see his real face for a split second.
Not one of my top favs but still a very well done movie. Like Taeko, we get tired of our lives and need a break. Not sure if I want to relive some of my childhood memories like she did. At least in the end, she ends up happy and with a new love interest (Toshio).

Granblue Fantasy The Animation
Probably A-1 Pictures hadn't permission from the game developer to change the original design that much, so we end up with characters without very defined traits and in some scenes, the animation seems kind of sloppy. But what really ruined everything was the use of 3DCG, that fell unnatural and simply breaks up any involvement because it's completely unsettlement with the rest of the art.
The story was interesting, although it does not bring anything new to this genres.
I can see the studio didn't try to invest much in the plot because all characters aren't enough developed. I know it's a game adaptation, but come on! At least they could put some effort in it...
Most animes based on games are disappointing and Granblue Fantasy wasn't an exeption. It was an average anime with nothing in particular that really stand out. Even so, it was better than what I expected, especially in action scenes.
Uta no☆Prince-sama♪ Maji Love 1000%
This one is a re-watched ☆ Honestly, almost all inverse harem animes have huge problems, especially when we mention the plot and the female-lead, and this anime is also based on a game... I already mentioned what I think about game adaptations in Granblue, so I'll not go for it again.
In general UtaPrince doesn't show anything new, the plot is a bit obvious and weak. The characters can be beautiful, but they have characteristics already seen before: the serious, the rebellious, the gentle, the funny, the womanizer, the animated,... I think everybody you already saw an inverse harem knows what I'm talking about.
In other hand, it is an anime of music, so it's full of entertaining songs, of which I would like to emphasize the beautiful opening sang by Mamoru Miyano & the addictive Maji LOVE 1000%. But the highest point in this anime is the art and animation, which are spotless. The colors are eye-catching and the designs are fabulous.
In the end, I think UtaPri fulfills what it proposes. Although you can't expect much originality and much less cleverness from this anime, you can still find some enjoyment in the songs, that are accompanied by a great animation.
