Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Everyone with even a casual awareness of anime knows Studio Ghibli, Hayao Miyazaki's animation studio responsible for some of the greatest anime films in the last 40 years. Ghibli is often compared to Disney, in that many of their films are very family-friendly, and lighter, softer affairs overall than many other well-known anime movies.
1 Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind Directed by: Hayao Miyazaki Close Nausicaä was directed and written by Hayao Miyazaki, but it was technically just before Studio Ghibli was founded in 1985. Nausicaä was released and distributed by Ghibli, though, so it definitely counts.
Possibly one of the saddest movies of all time, Grave of the Fireflies tells the story of orphaned siblings struggling to survive in World War 2-era Japan. Having lost everything but each other, the pair get through one misfortune after another as the war slowly winds down. The film has a softer visual style, with less noticeable outlining, giving it an almost painting-like quality that adds a degree of beauty to the stark and heart-wrenching tale.
12 My Neighbors the Yamadas Directed by: Isao Takahata My Neighbors the Yamadas is a slice-of-life comedy directed by Isao Takahata, and at first glance looks nothing like what one would imagine as a Ghibli film. The movie uses a simplistic style inspired by comic panels, and the story is told as small, loosely connected vignettes.
