Her majesty, the fae queen nymph, Queen Mab 🧚‍♀️🦋

Big thanks to @bamboorocket for letting me draw her gorgeous nymph OC for a oneshot concept she's working on!

sometimes you just gotta sit in your room and watch ghibli movies as you feel your heart overflowing with love for the little but overwhelmingly beautiful things this life can give us

oversized accessories (pea pod, clip, soy sauce)

Hey theoretically if you were an outdoor borrower with a bug farm in Central Florida what would you make a harpoon out of so it can be shot out of one of these things?

So its like... around toothpick size and it has to have a barbed tip so it latches into the target like a normal harpoon, preferably out of something natural but I'm not opposed to other options

No specific reason tho.

Ok I don't know if this is gonna go anywhere but I'm kinda curious

Fellow g/ters,

Edit: The Thumbelina one was Don Bluth not Disney, whoops--

Studio Ghibli ocs that I finally drew :’) 🌳🍃🌲🏝️

It’s about a woman who is looking for her lost explorer/aviator husband who has been missing for three years but ends up ship-wrecking on an island and meets an ancient giant who lives there!

The giant is the last of his kind because all his family died out except him, so he’s super lonely and when they first meet he follows her everywhere even though she doesn’t want him to like a curious puppy. Her husband is on the island too but had been avoiding the giant because he thought he was dangerous and set booby traps for him so the giant never went into that part of the forest and tried to prevent the woman from going there too thinking she’d get hurt like he had.

Im so sorry you were stuck in the 70s for so long Trevor, you would love Studio Ghibli and its whimsical portrayal of mundane life and their beautiful scores ❤.

love how similar yet how distinct the vibes of tinkerbell (specifically the great fairy rescue) and the secret world of arrietty are.

Today I went to go see the showing of Arrietty in the movie theater! It has always been my comfort film as it’s mine and many others introduction to g/t. I might be a little biased to say that the cozy atmosphere and music make it one of the best ghilbi movies as well!

Anyways, it was just my luck that when we got there the movie wasn’t even playing. Not even the credits played, just a blank screen. Strange, but the packed theater waited patiently as we continued to wonder why nothing was showing. 10 minutes passed by, then 20 and then 30. By then a lot of people got up to see what was going on and I was so sad as I realized I probably wouldn't be able to see it today.

The first time I saw this movie it was special, as it was my mom and I in an empty theater where we were able to completely immerse ourselves in the borrowers world. I don’t really remember all that much as I was pretty young, but from what my mom tells me, she says that she couldn’t take her eyes off me watching it for the first time, as I was completely enthralled through the entirety of the movie. She often fondly tells me that it is her favorite memory of me and how that film also shares a space in her heart.

Back in the present, I was quickly getting bored and realized that I could just pull up HBO Max on my phone to watch Arrietty from there. Needless to say my arms felt like jello from holding my phone up so long for the people in the back and myself to watch the movie. I had to switch arms a few times to keep it level, but I kept going to entertain the crowd and I. I didn’t turn on the volume but it was pretty funny to hear the people in the back actually watch it with me on my phone. (Subtitles and all)

“I feel bad for the people who can’t see this in the front”

“Hey, look it’s actually Arrietty!”

“This is better than nothing. Sitting here watching a blank screen for forty minutes.”

“The art in this movie just makes me want to rewatch it over and over. Shame we can’t see it on the big screen, but this will suffice.”

“I wish I was Arrietty fr :/“

“Wow the only thing missing is the stellar music”

“Thank you person in the front!”

Super disappointed that I couldn’t revisit seeing it on the big screen one more time, but luckily my friends and I got refunds because it wasn’t cheap. 😭🙏

Once I got home though, I rummaged through my dvd collection and rewatched Arrietty on the big 72 inch in the family room. If only I were a borrower, so that I could see it my tv like the real cinema.

CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW GOOD THEY BOTH LOOK

Watching some of the Ghibli movies I've never seen before. (Goes without saying for all of them that the animation is fantastic.)

Secret World of Arrietty: Cute story. Very pretty. Didn't really make an impact on my feelings or brain (in that, once it was over, it was over. I didn't keep thinking about it after.) 6/10

Castle in the Sky: Cute. Beautiful! Gave me nostalgia vibes from Chrono Trigger both in feel and the music a bit. Somewhat predictable. If I'd seen it as a kid, I probably would have been obsessed. 8/10

Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind: Amazing worldbuilding. Beautiful. Villains were kinda meh but that's the worst of it. Good music. Good story. Good ending. Kept thinking about it all night after. 10/10 (making it tied with my fav ghibli movie, Princess Mononoke)

Porco Rosso: Unimpressed. Main character kinda sexist. (Even if the narrative proves him wrong.) Quite a few scenes made me uncomfortable. Surprising voice cast. (TIL the person who voiced Meg from Hercules also voiced Rose from Steven Universe!) Cheezy. Kinda good one-liners tho. ("I'd rather be a pig than a fascist.") Ending was dumb but kinda cute. 3/10

I actually didn't mind the ending of the boy and the heron even though i can acknowledge it left a lot of things unresolved because... that's just what ghibli movies are to me at his point. Plus the ending of howl's moving castle left me far more disjounted and unsatisfied and everyone seems to fucking love that movie so i'm not sure why it's a problem here.

Guys I’m not okay I’m digging myself back into a hole of iron giant and other childhood movie nostalgia and thinking about all of these movies is making me actually want to cry
