Grave Of The Fireflies:

Excellent character building of two youths surviving war and the dangerous virulence of patriotism, Grave Of The Fireflies earns itself a spot on this lift for it is perhaps one of Miyazaki’s most outlying successes.

Castle In The Sky:

In the movie Miyazaki takes us on a harrowing train ride, befriending of giant robots and the quest to save Laputa, a floating castle in the sky. The movie is not as polished as others but still a near perfect action-adventure.

Whisper of the Heart:

The movie is a love story between a girl who loves reading books, and the boy who has previously checked out all of the library books she chooses.

So, ready to binge watch?
