They animate the most soulless movies ever. All of their movies are overrated. Other than good animations, they don’t offer anything to the soul.

>it’s another "iBlack person has shit taste" thread
Literally all their movies have the same message
>children are innocent
>nature good
>industrial society bad
>war bad
I mean they aren't bad messages but can they get some new fricking material?
what was the message of Princess Kaguya?
Isao Takahata was a better director than Hayao Miyazaki.
Yes, lets not reduce Ghibli to just "Miyazaki movies"
>industrial society bad
that was literally never the case. morons are just repeating non-criticism criticisms
You need to be high IQ to appreciate Japanese kino. It's not for the masses.
Why do people continually tell themselves this easily disproved lie? Does it comfort them?
true, generic japanoshit music makes weeabs cream themselves too
Hating popular things does not make you an interesting person.
>God tier
Porco Rosso
Spirited Away
>Good tier
My Neighbor Totoro
Kikis Delivery Service
The Wind Rises
>Legit trash
Princess Mononoke
>Yfw you have patrician taste
solid taste anon
For me, it's Poppy Hill
the incest thing ruins it.
There's no incest though. Didn't you watch the movie? They aren't actually related.
that was the reveal, but having so much of the movie about that and you are just dreading the possible outcome was just not a very compelling plot for me in a ghibli movie.
hmm Shun says "my feelings won't change" he was all for the incest, he horny.
*umi says that, and shun says similar back
He's just like me.
Howl's Moving Castle is where?
Not on the list because it's Miyazaki's worst film.
>Porco Rosso
Why do contrarians overrate it so much? It felt rushed and the ending was stupid
>liking something different than I do is contrarianism
You have to be middle aged to fully appreciate Porco Rosso.
You aren't truly enlightened until you are relating to cartoons in middle age.
writing for cartoons and writing for live action is the same.
>It felt rushed and the ending was stupid
actually, many ghibli films feel rushed at the end. that's probably the only decent criticism itt.
Japanese people in general seem to be unable to end things.
yeah but miyazaki can end a movie. it just feels rushed in a way
There's an erectile dysfunction joke to be made here but I can't figure it out.
True, Kiki had the same problem for me when conflict got resolved too fast
This is a purity of shitness I didn't know taste could possess
mononoke is alright, probably overrated but certainly not trash
Swap Spirited away and Princess Mononoke and this is respectable
What is even ''soulful'' animation for you if ghibli is the example of soulless animation?
Disney slop? or artsy animation made by a few people outside of the US and Japan?
Anime falls into weeb shit, coomer shit, troony shit, and furry shit so take your pick of what brand of degeneracy OP is into
You’re like a boomer who won’t eat pizza because Italians were the baddies in WW2
I've seen a lot of it and most of it is unremarkable to garbage even things hailed as classics. The OVA market is more my speed and even that is rife with coomer shit.
Moving the goalpost isn’t answering the question.
I do find their mature animation design quite boring. Doesn't even look like traditional animation any more, just completely smooth blobs of different colours. Looks more like Adventure Time.
you fricks probably don't understand miyazaki is one of the best animators ever even if he didn't direct any movie
Ghibli's trick is to be more of a vibe than a movie. They deliberately meander through a world rather than telling a satisfactory story to leave the audience wanting more rather than doing anything with the time they have. It's the same as SoL/moeshit that Miyazaki claims to hate but with a fantastical skin pasted over it rather than a mundane one.
go back to /r/hottakesforhomosexuals
Chronic contrarianism is a hell of a drug.
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STOP LIKING WHAT YOU LIKE NOOOOOOOOOOO
T. OP
Their only soulful film is Mononoke
>They animate the most soulless movies ever. All of their movies are overrated. Other than good animations, they don’t offer anything to the soul.
this speaks volumes
Shame because the US used to make kino
ran out of white immigrants
you either get some brown muttoid mix or 3rd+ generation, which have become deracinated
Definitely Miyazaki's best
Almost correct, but tranime "animation" is 2 fps at best.
Watch more anime
What anime be this?
Animatrix
literally nothing about that is correct dumbass
Miyazaki peaked with his work on Lupin III
Just for context, this was from a 20 minute TV show from the 1970s
Are the robots supposed to be the same ones from Castle in the Sky or did they just phone in the designs?
Castle In The Sky simply took this robot design, the only movie Miyazaki worked on up to this point was Castle Of Cagliostro.
Saw The Wind Rises last week, really did not like it. Its too meandering, for such an interesting time its a really dull movie.
-not really about the genius of the guy
-not really about the science behind the planes
-not really about the war
-not really about his wife (she comes in like 80% into the movie, except for the beginning)
So what was it about? The guy just kind of mildly reacts to everything around him until the movie just ends.
it's about all those things combined but i agree it's pretty weak for miyazaki and even he wasn't sure how to handle it even though being a fan of airplanes and anti-war at the same time is his biggest theme.
it's based on a real person that actually existed. miyazaki didn't do anything like that before and it wasn't his own idea to make it a feature film so i don't think it worked well.
if i describe it in a good way, it's a subtle movie about even a very talented guy's carrier gets ruined in a hard time and there's no many things you can do but you should live strong as much as possible.
>Animated
The only people who should be watching animated anything are children. It's time for you manchild to grow up. Here comes the cope and seethe.
>Art (static)
Wow, so deep, such a beautiful work.
>Art (motion)
REEEEEE THIS IS FOR CHILDREN HOW CAN AN ADULT ENJOY THIS
>Implying I hold any high regards towards art paintings
Yeah you're not getting out of this homosexual. Stop watching children shows.
>I'm a tasteless homosexual who has no appreciation for the most important form of art that has been consistent in human societies since the dawn of man
Okay, why should I take your word seriously?
>Important
The only important form of art is literature and music as it requires attentiveness to truly appreciate it.
>why should I take your word seriously?
Because I'm right.
>does not think architecture is important
you sir, are a moron of the very highest order and your opinion can safely be disregarded.
>architecture
Stop you don't need to convince me any further, I already concluded that youre a moron. Architectes are as soulless as code monkeys and asians and barely constitute are real art.
>The only important form of art is literature and music
The irony of this is lost on you.
"Art" (The word) specifically refers to visual art, like paintings, drawings, etc. Maybe sculptures if you really stretch the definition. It doesn't mean "creative work" like you think it does. Music and literature literally are not art, only morons like you who desperately try to make "art" mean "srs business creative works" consider them that.
You mean architecture?
>that katakana
So wait, Ghibli was supposed to be pronounced with a soft g sound this whole time?
That reminds me of that time i when i was doing my JP reps and suddenly i realized konichiwa not only spelled wrong, it was also like half a sentence that had somehow become a gretting.
I say jibbly
>they don’t offer anything to the soul.
If you own an iPhone you don't have a soul. Sorry, just how it is.
Yeah, they don't make real art like BR 2046
Yeah, definitely the most overrated anime studio of all time. Kyoani is a very close second.
>most overrated anime studio of all time
That's not MAPPA
>overrated
it's not their fault that there's no other animation studio that can manage to release a decent animated movie constantly, though
Wow you are so original and smart because you don't follow the popular opinion! Let me call my friends and we can all suck your sloppy dick anon!
Watched mononoke again and it is indeed trash
>I am humble village man
>everybody i talk to likes me
>i have no conflict with anyone
>GREAT SPIRIT I OFFER YOU SOME HEAD
>ok and i'm in the friendzone
end credits
Bravo Miyazaki
Miyazaki often portrayed European and Japanese culture that existed prior to the world wars that lead to the current immigrant replacement. All of his fans, even the ones that insist they are for "diversity", are naturally attracted to the portrayal of homogenous societies whether they are European or Japanese.
