    visually captivating... Miyazaki paints a beautifully imaginative, and a wonderfully surreal yet somehow realistic world. a deeply touching and affecting piece. A must-see! (4.5/5 stars)

    My 1st favorite anime film: Tales from2nd: Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle"Once you meet someone, you never really forget them." If you like this movie, see Tales from Earthsea. This and the movies above are my favorite. Two words: See it. (and Tales from Earthsea)
