*shrugs* Trot out as many patronising gifs as you want, doesn't change how lazy the ending is.
Actually the best gibli film is You're Name.

The hell kind of a title is that.
I don't watch any. I remember watching them as a kid but now I just don't care for them.
I think the only one I've ever watched is Totoro when I was a kid. Maybe I'll have to check out the other ones.
i am a big fan of that ghibli film you are name, yes
How? Don't understand what you are confused with mate.Quote:

- Howl helps her be a more confident person
- Sophie in turn also helps Howl be less of a drama queen, and narcissistic.
- Love and kisses.
- Happy end.

I could be wrong but that's how I saw everything.
Pretty much. It's a very simple, personal story.
You forgot the best part! The magical talking fire which speaks in a really sassy way!
And then there's the scarecrow that's actually a prince!
The beauty of this movie is in the details, really
Yeah, I love how we find this out in the end (without anything leading up to it, though I have heard the dub does this better) and he says he'll sort out this war business, kthxbyeQuote:

WELLL FORMY?! What were your thoughts about howls?
