"Mary and the Witch's Flower" (definitely a "must see" if you like Ghibli!), and maybe I'll throw in a random short animation (not anime, but still neat) "The House of Small Cubes".

And let me tell you, whether you watched them once or twice, if you understand most of the plots of the stories or not, whether you first cried or had the feels to these movies. You can’t deny that you just need to watch them only once or twice cause these films are the most common to watch, enjoy, and to bond over them. Plus you may have more memories and moments with someone or by yourself, whether it be the animation or the characters or the music for the second time or infinite time, you’re still gonna love it and never regret watching these amazing films. 🥰 Also thank you for making this video I been waiting for so long even though it’s has been almost two weeks but it felt like forever in a good that you finally made this video and that you enjoyed some of ours favorites. Mine being A Silent Voice. Maquia, Wolf Children, etc. And I love and adore Makoto Shinkai’s work, he’s literally my favorite anime Directors as well as Hayao Miyazaki and both are inspiration for me to becoming an artist and to achieve my goals. And Yes “Your Name” will be one of his best Works and best anime film ever as well as “Spirited Away” and it’s Beautiful. And for those people who haven’t watched these or starting to watch anime, I Highly Recommend theses as well!!! Also I’m loving your channel and your amazing person by the way! 😁😍🥰

[@liashufflepuffs3584]

the most movies that efected me is Howel's moving castle, Maquia and anthem of heart

[@mariajuana6901]

Maquia is really underrated, it made me cry a lot :(

[@KayaaaaDe]

Maquia is so special to me. I was literally sobbing in the end. It was so heartbreaking yet so beautiful.

[@selc1733]

😢😢😢 Maquia broke my heart, I cried so much with that movie

[@theloveliestsoul7767]

i highly recommend “in this corner of the world” or the extended version “in this corner (and other corners) of the world. just finish watching it. it’s beautiful. i definitely did not get bored watching this 2 hour plus movie.

[@shadowfighter1234567]

My favorite Kon movie is Tokyo Godfathers! Also some of my favorite non-Ghibli anime movies include Metropolis, The Night is Short Walk on Girl, Summer Wars, and Macross: Do You Remember Love?

[@TheMusicSingsSongs]

i'll try to add some that i haven't seen listed yet: tokyo godfathers the night is short walk on girl the tatami galaxy* ping pong mind game summer wars liz and the blue bird (has a great soundtrack) promare penguin highway! (cute)

[@Paulina-ic2ci]

Thank you for all the awesome recommendations!! My favorite nob-ghibli anime movie is the Wolf Children 💕

[@farinatasmia9134]

Wolf children is literally my favourite movie OF ALL TIME, like it was my first ever anime movie and it got me so emotional and nostalgic, also now I want to visit the countryside lol, and also hanas is literally the most amazing mum ever, I hope I can be like her some day.

[@sorens4511]

I haven’t seen many other people talking about this one, but weathering with you is a amazing movie. It’s directed by Makoto Shinkai, and it’s fairly recent (I believe it came out earlier this year) and as usual the animation is stunning. I don’t remember the story line very well, but it’s about a runaway boy who meets a girl who it appears can control the weather. Definitely recommend it! :)

[@pink-pone]

This video came at the PERFECT time for me because I made it a goal to watch every studio Ghibli film over quarantine and now I’m getting to the end of the list and I can’t wait to watch these afterwards!! Thank you for this ;w;

[@nellieken]

Where do you watch anime movies please? Are they on Netflix?

[@pink-pone]

​@@nellieken Not sure if these ones in particular are but I use animepahe.com :)

[@strongoakreads8417]

The garden of words is another masterpiece the whole film is like reading a poem personally it's my favorite of Makoto Shinkai

[@ziphyzephyr7131]

Truth..especially the Tanka reply nearing the end 💕

[@cacapegas633]

thank you!! you have explained it all very well!! here are others i have watched that are not ghibli (but ofc go watch every ghibli movie if you havent): - Ghost in The Shell (a classic, sci-fi, very great animation and character design) - Summer Wars (this is by Mamoru Hosoda!! fun concept, abt online gaming but next level!) - Paprika (Satoshi Kon's, sci-fi, concept: entering dreams) - Akira (a classic, sci-fi and cyberpunk, really cool animation!!) ive watch all of the movies in the video except wolf children and millenium actress, but i heard they are great too! i really want to watch millennium actress since its Satoshi Kon's and i really love his movies, i really love paprika and perfect blue. when i knew he had passed away i was really sad.. but the works and legacy he has left behind will never die. rest in peace Satoshi Kon.

[@danielanogueira4966]

I have just watched 3 anime movies (that are not studio ghibli) - your name, weathering with you and 5 centimeters per second - and i finished this video with 5 more movies on my list! thank you so much for the recommendations!!! also, in case you want to know, my favorite is (for now?) weathering with you

[@appleseed5752]

You should also check these out: 1. Hello World 2. A Whisker Away 3. Weathering with You

[@danielleramos2659]

I've seen somebody else mention it here: Colorful. That movie had me crying 8+ times because it hit too close to home for me. If your currently struggling with your mental health I strongly recommend it.

[@Sirrajj]

That movie is highly underrated but must see, I love it.

[@recon441]

Paprika is one of my all time faves. It made me feel like someone understood me on a spiritual level because that's exactly how my dreams are 👁️👄👁️

[@CristobalMoonlight2001]

I love Your Name

[@cinemoni]

ahh i still need to watch big fish &begonia!!

[@CristobalMoonlight2001]

@@cinemoni Please do it 🙏🏻 It's a wonderful movie and I think you're going to love Qiu

[@fawnclaudia]

@@CristobalMoonlight2001 just curious, do you like Big Fish & Begonia mainly cause of the concept (&lore) + characters or because of the story? Cause to me the storyline wasn’t good, it didn’t flow well, pacing was too fast, didn’t really enjoy it. But visuals were awesome, concept was nice, i just wish Chun interacted with Kun more (before all the main stuff happened). (And probably some other stuff i forgot since its been a while since i watched it) and well, tbh in this movie Chun is v hateable 😅. She’s v selfish for sacrificing her whole community just due to a boy she didn’t even properly meet.

[@fawnclaudia]

@@CristobalMoonlight2001 though yasss Qiu for the win! The only true likeable main character in this movie 😂

[@CristobalMoonlight2001]

@@fawnclaudia I love everything about that movie, but it makes me sick to see it because it leaves me crying for a long time 😭😭 and causes a strange anguish in my chest 😔 My mom won't let me see it 😣

[@sora7393]

I haven’t watched any other anime movies other than Studio Ghibli’s from 1987-2020 so this helped a ton! Thank you so much! P.S this means I have watched anime *series* but I only watched Studio Ghibli’s *movies* Edit: where can I watch ‘Perfect Blue’ and ‘Your Name’?

[@priyabarha9452]

You can download it from animeflix website .

[@subwaysurfersruns164]

Silent voice is just a masterpiece. It cannot be compared.

[@katoambokadze4295]

I literally got goosebumps while you were talking about your name and a silent voice because both of them are so amazing!

[@fuewabutz4784]

I highly recommend "I want to eat your pancreas" to everyone. This is my favorite non ghibli movie and i kmow the title sounds weird but please give it a try and let me know if you liked it or not. Its Slice of Life and Romance and the animation is sooo good.

[@zalmallama]

i cried so much ! i think if you are an introverted person, you will be really empathetic with the main character ⁄(⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)

[@surenderbeniwal8578]

I'm going to watch it tomorrow if I can :) n' if i do I'll def come here.

[@marcion8437]

Add to your list Mai Mai Miracle The Red Turtle Josee,The tiger and the fish Porco Rosco (Ghibli film) The Tale of the Princess Kaguya Who's Left Behind Birthday Wonderland Tokyo Godfathers Junker Comes here The Boy who See the Wind Pompoko HAL Howls Moving Castle (Such a masterpiece,it's also my favorite) Spirited Away Okko's Inn Ride Your Wave Anthem of the Heart Flavors of the Youth

[@hiimdan662]

Why is no one talking about A Silent Voice?? It's one of the best anime movies imo

[@narutonaruto6286]

Not one of the best it's the best. Your name , spirited away etc comes after a silent voice

[@AvalosTokyo]

Others beat me to it but Summer Wars - online auctions affecting the real world, ghibli style heartwarming. Family, Sci-Fi Hoshi No Koe (Voice From A Distant Star) - teenagers separated, love and distance, Mecha, Sci-Fi Paprika - If you liked Inception, this is better. Ghost In The Shell - The reason why The Matrix even exists. Read Richard Dawkins' A River Out Of Eden to really blow your mind. Blood - the original film, not series. Aged well for it's time, multicultural Vampire hunter. Feels like living in Okinawa. Perfect for Halloween !

[@patrickhf8298]

I want to add a movie to the list: Penguin Highway Penguin Highway is a fun movie where we follow this really smart and pragmatic kid who is obsessed with the idea of being a great man when he grows up. One day, all of the sudden, something weird started to happen: penguins started to appear in his town. So now, this kid takes this mistery as a challenge to prove he's more than prepared to be a grown adult by solving why are the penguins here. It is a really fun and cute movie, maybe not the best, but is a interesting experience. As a lot of anime movies, this movie gets weirder and weirder but in a fun way. The ending song is beautiful. And talks a lot about how we grow up, how a child's creativity can take you anywhere and how we, as humans, are scientists by nature.

[@elesternanais5313]

I watched Maquia this July. My first impression was it's a sad teenage romantic love story but, I was shocked when I found out it was about motherhood. When I'm almost at the end of the movie, I thought it was sad but not the type of sad that I'm gonna cry. Oh man, I was wrong. The part after the war when Maquia decided to leave and Ariel shouted "Please don't leave, mom!" I started crying. Even after the movie was done, my tears kept falling down. It was such a good movie.

[@omesius]

Hands down probably the only anime movie I didn’t want to end; “Mind Game”.

[@user02406]

two movies that have stuck to me are in this corner of the world and whisper of the heart. i relate to shizuku so much, i watched it when i was fourteen and i had trouble deciding what i was gonna do in the future. i don't have any big goals so i felt aimless but watching whisper of the heart made me feel a lot better. we can't miss the cute romance too hehe, keiji and howl are my two ghibli crushes ♡♡

[@dcresistance]

My all-time favorite is Liz and the Blue Bird, by the same director (and core team) as A Silent Voice!

[@celestialbr0nze]

Ooh yes! anything kyoto animation makes is absolutely stunning

[@micaelaclifford2729]

YES! Your Name, was the first anime movie I watched and it impacted me a lot... I even cry and I never cry lol, that was a very good introduction to this new world of cartoons and your videos help me a lot to search new movies! 💜

[@littlecloudflower]

My favorite non-Ghibli anime movies (in roughly descending order): -A Silent Voice -Wolf Children -Penguin Highway -Liz and the Blue Bird -Garden of Words -5cm Per Second -Your Name -Hotarubi no Mori e -The Girl Who Leapt Through Time -The Tale of Princess Kaguya -Colorful -The Night is Short, Walk on Girl -Okko's Inn To be honest I had trouble with I Want to Eat Your Pancreas and Weathering With You, and feel like they're a bit overrated. As a med student I didn't feel like the former movie portrayed pancreatic cancer very well, the plot and relationship felt a bit all over the place, and the reference to The Little Prince (one of my favorite stories) felt a bit shallow and not very well thought out. And as someone who's done a lot of climate change activism, I just don't feel like the ultimate message of Weathering With You was helpful in this day and age...The other meh one was Fireworks - I really wanted to like it because I loved the original live action movie, and it was okay, but not spectacular. Oooh and Flavors of Youth - I also wanted to like it because it was a Chinese anime that held a lot of resonance for me in terms of the scenes of my youth, but the storytelling felt kind of meh and amateur-ish. And finally, A Whisker Away was super super cute but also left something to be desired in terms of its actual message. (It's funny, I think these are all movies that I felt like I should have liked, but was just super disappointed by - must be the high expectations.) Other movies I want to watch: Maquia, Ride Your Wave, Lu Over the Wall, Anthem of the Heart, In This Corner of the World, Summer Wars, Perfect Blue/other Satoshi Kon films, other Makoto Shinkai films.

[@athenacaye678]

I super agree on Fireworks- I expected a lot from it but after i watched- I was like “meh, not for me.”

[@littlecloudflower]

@@athenacaye678 Yeah! I think the original live action movie was actually pretty good though - felt like a surreal daydream of adolescence. It’s just in the anime they made the entire thing have a supernatural twist, which kind of destroyed the emotional weight of the original movie. In the original the implication that all of the things that happened the second time around can never happen, and it was a story of regrets and coming to terms with it, not “fixing mistakes” so to speak.

[@Kaspleen]

Millennium Actress - I felt was so sad seeing her life move through her career but it was fascinating Wolf Children - Made me cry I still wonder how she copes alone The Girl Who Leapt Through Time - I had so many questions by the end and wondered how much their relationship changed as a result. The Live action version is also interesting The Boy and the Beast - moving and sweet at the same time Silent Voice - Incredibly powerful and a very moving film, i was fascinated by the Japanese sign language too Your Name - Another one that made me cry and had so many interesting events, ancient and present that had so much meaning Have you seen: Brave Story Children Who Chase Lost Voices In This Corner of the World Patema Inverted Legend of the Millennium Dragon Summer Wars The Magic Tree House

Maquia breaks my heart into pieces, I cried sooo hard. It's so beautiful, the relashionship they build as mother and son. I cried, a lot😭😭

[@tabiii1810]

i'd recommend: Whisper of the Heart, I Want to eat your Pancreas, Weathering with You, Mirai no Mirai, Anthem of the Heart, also Wolf Children and Maquia are two of my favourite movies... i sobbed while watching them.. i also cried at The Girl who Leapt Through Time and was a little confused when you said it was lighthearted haha..

[@rachaeldot]

I AGREE WITH YOU AND YOU HAVE IMMACULATE TASTE BUT GARDEN OF WORDS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME AND I THINK IT DESERVED TO BE INCLUDED (sorry for yelling HAHA). not only is the aesthetic and soundtrack absolutely mesmerizing, the coming of age story between two individuals who are in very different points of life helping each other walk towards their own futures is so so beautiful. i think it's a movie that i understand more and more as i grow older-- relating to the student as a teen and now relating to the teacher as a young adult :')
