@sisilia @Centique Ladies, thanks a bunch for sharing a conversation about Whisper of the Heart. I watched it last night and completely loved it – what a sweet, inspiring, and heartfelt story. 💚

@sisilia I have screenshot-ted the list you shared and looking forward to watch them. ☺️

Centique Oh yay! I‘m so glad you liked it 😍 @sisilia you‘re having a great influence at spreading the Studio Ghibli joy! 4y
sisilia @Tanisha_A @Centique Haha I‘m glad 😆 Beautiful artworks, and Hayao Miyazaki always always depicts strong girls in his works. The stories are meaningful and relatable 💕 4y
BiblioLitten I bookmarked a page related to this after I saw that conversation too. I hope to check out the movies soon. 😃 @sisilia Thanks! 💕 4y

Curiouser_and_curiouser I watched this recently with my 7 year old. Such a beautiful movie. We are on an Anime streak at the moment. Netflix has quite a few available. Loving them! Gorgeous stories. 4y
Tanisha_A @Centique @Curiouser_and_curiouser @BiblioLitten @sisilia We are a Studio Ghibli loving group! I watched Spirited Away a couple of days back, and oh, what a fantastical experience! 4y
Centique @Tanisha_A @sisilia @BiblioLitten @Curiouser_and_curiouser I watched The Cat Returns with the 10yo on Tuesday - at first he thought it was a bit weird but he wanted to keep going. Then last night he says “Can we watch another Studio Ghibli movie?” So we watched My Neighbour Totoro. #converted He‘s a total fan too now! 4y
BiblioLitten @Centique That‘s awesome! 😊💙 4y
Curiouser_and_curiouser @Centique Oh cool! We love Totoro!!! And I remember The Cat Returns too. Yes, we totally became addicted to Studio Ghibli movies. Our faves are Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle, oh, and Ponyo. So many favorites!! 4y

Just watched this movie after reading something @sisilia said about it a while ago and It Is A Delight. The only other Studio Ghibli I have watched is Arietty and now I want to watch all of them. I‘ve had this hankering for “domestic life” style manga and graphic novels (had some wonderful suggestions from @Lindy ) and this scratched that itch. I am in awe of the interior settings and the street scenes, just fabulous art and story telling

Blueberry I have a nice memory of doing a Studio Ghibli marathon with my son. 4y
Centique If you need some heart healing I recommend this story of a bookworm, an enigmatic young man and a mysterious antique shop. 4y
Centique @Blueberry that is a good idea! I should try that with mine 😊 What was his favourite one? 4y

sisilia Glad that you love it 💕 Another fav of mine is From Up On Poppy Hill, but Shizuku has a special place in my heart because she reminds me of me hahahaha 🤪 4y
Centique @sisilia thank you so much for sending me in this direction. It‘s the kind of film I will end up watching many times. Shizuku is awesome. I love that she has no qualms about being a bookworm 💪🏼 #bookwormpower 4y
batsy I haven't watched this yet and I should! I loved Princess Mononoke... Not domestic, but so beautiful. 4y
Cheshirecat913 I adore Studio Ghibli films and I have been joyful to share them with my daughter. I just love their messages, art work (backgrounds are so amazing) and their pacing is so soothing to me. 4y
BookmarkTavern I love Studio Ghibli! ❤️❤️❤️ Wonderful stories and gorgeous movies. 4y
Centique @batsy I‘ll have to watch that one next 😊 4y
Centique @Cheshirecat913 soothing is the perfect word! 4y
Centique @ozma.of.oz I‘m so glad to find something new that I can fangirl about! 😍 4y
Blueberry @Centique His favorite is Cat Returns with voices by Tim Curry, Anne Hathaway, and Gary Elwes. He says we still have more to watch tho. Maybe this summer when he's on college break. 4y
Centique @Blueberry thank you! I‘ll see if I can find that one 😊 4y
Blueberry @Centique He also said that was the problem now.... finding them. 4y

Happy Sunday! I love my reading chair, but I also love reading at my desk. I concentrate better, and get more reading done 😄

Image is from “Whisper of the Heart” - Tsukushima Shizuku spending her summer holiday reading books borrowed from the library. Her goal is to read 20 books before school starts

BarbaraBB Great illustration 😍 4y
QuintusMarcus Really love that picture! 4y
sisilia @BarbaraBB @QuintusMarcus Studio Ghibli has the best illustrations... very detailed 4y
QuintusMarcus No wonder it‘s so beautiful. I had not heard of the movie - I‘ll look it up! 4y

I find a lot of similarities in Shizuku, and she is my favorite Ghibli character 😊

Bwahahaha! You can't tell me what to do! (I identify with Shizuku so much in this anime because she literally stays up all night reading).

Autumnscribe I love this, and Howl, the most of all of the ghibli films 8y

Ok. I'm jumping on the bandwagon. The 3 characters I would say describe me (clockwise from top left):
1) Shizuku from the Studio Ghibli film Whisper of the Heart. She's a bookworm who's perpetually curious.
2) Luna. Quirky. Enough said. Lol
3) Sailor Moon/Usagi because I love to eat, sleep, and am a klutz. But also I love her feminist badassery.

Seekingtardis I identify with all three of them too!!!!! 😍😍 8y
