What does /a/ think of Howl's Moving Castle?

"At least it's better than Earthsea" tier

>>138288523
The changes from the book are weird and the war plot is blown out of proportion and very Miyazaki.

Dubsman was a good Howl.

>>138288523
not the best miyazaki film but was acceptable

>>138288523
I enjoyed it. As with all ghibli stuff it is very pretty to look at. Pacing was weird and plot was a little heavy handed with the war allegory.

extremaly comfy

I enjoyed it a lot when I watched it for the first time, but then I read the book.
There isn't much left of the original story and half the cast is missing.
But the animation is still nice.

Pretty. A slightly weak work perhaps compared to anything else from Ghibli save for Earthsea but a good movie overall.

It is to anime what A.I. was to Hollywood. A half finished film that was almost scrapped. Then Miyazaki took over to try and save it. And you can tell which parts Miyazaki directed and which parts the original director did.

>>138288975
Thinking a bit more about the movie now I take that back. It's weaker compared to Miyazaki's other works.
I'll still place it higher than Arrietty, The Cat Returns, From Up on Poppy Hill and Ocean Waves, because even if Howl isn't as solid a film as Miyazaki's others and Takahata's films it's still a joy to watch simply because how great it looks.

Dubsman approves.

Good movie

Awful adaptation

>>138288523
ending was pretty weird. Favorite scene was where granny practically confesses her love for Howl to the Queen, and ends up reverting back to her normal self temporarily.

You could say the same about Kiki or even Nausicaa.

I will once I read the work they are based on.

>>138289420
You have shit tastes

>>138289669
I don't imply any of those films would be bad.
The only Ghibli I can say not liking is Earthsea and even that is far removed from the really bad animated films I've seen.

Gez anon take a break, go outside and get some fresh air.

A feel good film with tight visuals and music as always.
I enjoyed it but the pacing was fucking weird as hell

I'll admit he played a part in moistening the panties of my 12 year old's newly sexually awakened self.

We all read the book first right?

The second half was a clusterfuck and the shoehorned war subplot didn't help, though aesthetically it's one of the best Miyazaki films.

Saw the film when it was released, the book wasn't translated until like a year later.
I couldn't back then read english well enough to go through entire novels.
I feel like reading it again. It's so different and all the details have slipped my mind. I don't even remember whether I liked it or not.

Meh. I hated the ending, didn't like how often she was an old women made from plastic bags, plus I've was never too big a Ghibli fan. It's basically like most other Ghibli movies for me in that "I'm glad I watched it once. But I'm never watching it again."

>>138290201
Ok

But I didn't start this thread, I just pointed out that the movie is an awful adaptation.

>>138290201
Sorry for discussing anime on the anime board anon.

Maybe we can go back to discussing loli panty adventure for the hundredth time.

>>138289807
The whole right side is pretty much off save for anita, RLM, MDE, gamergate, and pepe. Not that the ones left out are any better but they're not really /v/.

Worst Hayai after Punyu.

>>138289420
Hey fuck you.
Ocean Waves is the best Ghibli.

Watched it for the first time during the week.
Even I got the feeling there was chunks of stuff missing and I'm usually not good at this kind of stuff. It was still decent tho.

>the war allegory
It's not really an allegory if there's an actual war.

>>138292410
I think he means the allegory to the Iraq War

>>138290300
now were talking

>>138289774
I don't know anon, Earthsea is the only Ghibli film I legitimately hate because Goro fucked it over big time. The book is one of my favourites too.

Kiki was a cute and waifu tier.

Miyazakis claims to hate moe are just your standard issue artistic genius self-loathing.
