Studio Ghibli movies shaped my childhood and I loved them. (My parents didn't even realise they were Anime until later, they assumed it was from Disney because they were so well made) Spirited Away was a favorite family movie for a long time.
I think Laputa - Castle in the Sky will remain my all-time favorite and Princess Mononoke second.
- eloisant 9y agoActually the movies you cite are all Miyazaki. Takahata directed Grave of the Fireflies, Pompoko, my Neighbors the Yamada and others.
- shagie 9y agoFor some, it probably shaped it more than they knew. The Rankin-Bass animations (The Hobbit, The Last Unicorn, etc) was outsourced to a studio named Topcraft. > The studio went bankrupt and dissolved in June 15, 1985 essentially splitting the studio in half. Hayao Miyazaki, Toshio Suzuki and Isao Takahata bought the studio when laying off most of its animation staff and changed its name to Studio Ghibli.
