Howl's Moving Castle (2004) is a Studio Ghibli film. This film was originally in Japanese, but can be viewed with English dubbing thanks to Disney Studios. Howl's Moving Castle (2004) is based on a novel by Diana Wynne Jones. The film's protagonist is a girl named Sophie who has been cursed, and she becomes an old woman. Sophie begins to search for a famous wizard known as Howl. When Sophie finally meets Howl, a plethora of events unfold. Howl's Moving Castle (2004) is a romance film, but manages to capture the feelings of friendship, fear, and uncertainty. The animation is, as all Studio Ghibli films, extremely detailed. The animation imitates real environments and shows unique character designs. This film is beautiful and will always be a favorite of mine and viewers of all ages.

My Hero Academia (2016-) (also know as Boku No Hero Academia in Japan) is an anime that takes place in a futuristic Japan. This anime is available in both Japanese and English. The characters in this anime have powers they inherit known as "quirks." The anime is popular for how well the animation portrays fight scenes between characters. The animation is capable of creating beautiful backgrounds, all while keeping the characters as the main focus. The anime is centered around a boy named Izuku Midoriya who is one of the few people without a quirk. He is able to gain a quirk thanks to a popular hero known as All-Might. The anime follows the story of Izuku's life as well as his friends and other heroes. This anime is one of my favorites due to the interesting storyline and beautiful animation style.

Demon Slayer (2019-) is a Japanese anime. This anime has both the original Japanese subtitles and the English dub available. Demon Slayer (2019-) is an anime in which a young boy, Tanjiro, becomes a demon slayer in order to save his sister, Nezuko. The anime has not yet been completed, and a movie has recently been released to American theaters. The animation used in this anime is excellent at showing the beauty of the setting it is in, but it also manages to show the darkness in perfect contrast. I love this anime's ability to make the audience laugh, but I also appreciate how the animation is so detailed it has made viewers cry.

Spirited Away (2001) is one of the best films created by Japan’s Studio Ghibli. The English version of the film was dubbed into English by Disney Studios. The film has some of the most iconic animation; every detail counts. I love the scenery of this film... Studio Ghibli’s animation always features the most beautiful nature scenes. Spirited Away (2001) really touches my heart, for it is about a young girl who must learn how to become independent in order to survive the spirit world she and her parents accidentally crossed into. The film is for all ages, and it teaches audiences lessons such as the importance of friends and family, but it also manages to show the hardships of growing up. Spirited Away’s (2001) animation is magical in every way possible, and it is ultimately one of my favorite animated films from Japan.
