Good call, I'd like to see more of his. I've seen Castle in the Sky that he produced and apparently he did musical werk on Kiki's Delivery Service. I've meant to watch Anne of Green Gables [Akage no An] and Dog of Flanders. Specific recs?

andylt 08/17/21 11:47:02 AM #46:	Llarian posted... Specific recs? Anything I should not miss? Only Yesterday and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya are both fantastic, imo. Only Yesterday is one of my all-time fav films. Takahata didn't stick to a single genre or even animation style though, so there's likely to be at least one of his films you're fond of! Also it's not Takahata or Miyazaki but Whisper of the Heart is great too, sadly it was the only film directed by Yoshifumi Kondo before his passing. --- Slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. <cite>andylt posted [p:957168272] in Best Miyaz...

Lil_Bit83 08/17/21 12:38:13 PM #48:	Princess Mononoke is their best period, the end. I have not seen Cagliostrio, Porco Rosso, or Wind Rises. I will nominate When Marnie Was There for very underrated Ghibli film, its great. I'm surprised not to see Grave of the Fireflies, Pom Poko, and Arietty on here, but I know you only had so many options. --- 2DS FC tempest 1478 9807 1205 <cite>Lil_Bit83 posted [p:957169748] in Best Miyaz...

Torlovsk 08/17/21 12:51:45 PM #49:	Underrated and Takahata is Pom Poko: If it weren't for the ~~scrotal dive bombing~~, I'd be wondering why it never made a splash here in the States.
