Hello and welcome to another superiore, in alto list! This time, I'm counting down my superiore, in alto 5 preferito Studio Ghibli movies! But first, some honorable mentions!
* The Cat Returns (Rating: 8/10)
* The Secret World of Arrietty (Rating: 8/10)
* Spirited Away (Rating: 8.4)
* When Marine was There (Rating: 8.5)
#5: Pom Poko (Rating: 8.6 / 10)
Pom Poko tells the story of a group of Tanukis struggling to live in a world of human urban advancements. It's so interesting to see how different groups of Tanukis react to the problem. Some attack and scare humans, some shape-shift into humans and become part of our soceity, and some just commit suicide. It's a very tragic movie, but the animazione and basically everything else is stellar.
#4: The Wind Rises (Rating: 8.8 / 10)
The Wind Rises is about Jiro Horikoshi, the engineer who created the Mitsubishi A6M Zero. This movie was quite controversial when it came out. But either way, I Amore the way they portray Jiro Horikoshi, he's a man who looks up to great inventors (he even meets them in his dreams) and strives to reach the top.
#3: Kiki's Delivery Service (Rating: 9.1 / 10)
Kiki's Delivery Service is about a young witch named Kiki who is training to be a witch. He gets a job at a bakery (she delivers bread) and gets a crush on a nerdy boy named Tombo, who wants to fly. The scenery in this movie and the idea of witches being good really do appeal to me.
#2: Grave of the Fireflies (Rating: 9.6 / 10)
This movie is depressing, but really good! This movie is about a brother and sister (named Seita and Setsuko) living in Giappone during WWII. They decide to live on there own after their mother dies during a bombing raid. They also learn that there father died on a Japanese Aircraft Carrier. They also learn that Giappone has surrendered to the Americans, which devastates the two. Setsuko dies of malnutrition and starvation, and Seita dies a few days later. This movie is what shaped my visualizzazioni on war, and it's also the reason why I don't support most wars.
#1: Princess Mononoke (Rating: 9.8 / 10)
This movie is about Ashitaka, a prince who is exiled after being attacked da a Demon Boar, and getting cursed da it. Ashitaka wanders and meets Jiko-bo, a wandering monk, and then stumbles into a place called Iron Town, run da a kind but strict woman named Lady Eboshi. However, because they are expanding into the forest, the nature gods are fighting back. Most prominently is Moro, the lupo goddess, and her adopted human daughter San, the Princess Mononoke. Lady Eboshi wants to kill the Shishigami so that she can give the head (which if te eat, te will gain eternal youth, supposedly) to the Emperor, so they can be independent from Giappone and the shoguns who are attacking Iron Town.
This movie is awesome! It's the perfect Environmental movie, as it doesn't have a black and white morality (cough, cough, Avatar and Captain Planet, cough cough), but uses a grey and grey morality. te can understand the viewpoint of every side. Also, they could have easily made Lady Ebosi the villain, but they don't. She just wants to protect Iron Town and everyone who lives there. I can gush about this movie for hours but te should see it yourself. Also, here's the theme for the movie:

Gangster ponies in their cars waiting by the train track
So I was just thinking about the mane six and their elements and blah blah blah. So anyway, I just want to share my opinion with te guys. Honestly, I think the elements hold the whole story of MLP together. The elements are basically the foundation for Friendship is Magic. In the first episode, the elements were what defeated Nightmare Moon. They also defeated Discord and did some other stuff.. But what if the Elements did not exist? Would MLP be good, worse, o better off without them? Sorry this was so short I kinda am slacking off on articolo Scrivere these days. What would MLP be like without the elements?
