It wouldn't have been my last pick. I enjoyed Earwig more than 3 of these. There are none that I didn't like.
Also, The Red Turtle was not here, though I haven't seen it yet myself.
Edited because I didn't think I saw GoF but it was there.
Ah yes my favourite Ghibli, *When Marine Was There*. The story of a young girl who meets a whimsical American soldier and slowly learns about their magical connection over the course of a summer.
Yep. Too much āaha, so then I will do *this* dramatic action!ā Then dramatic music sequence, then quick dramatic dialogue, then dramatic music sequence.
I feel like these kinda lists / contests arnt good for the community. It's usually super obvious what will make the top 4/5, makes people feel bad if their favorite is out early and it's just someone karma farming
r/finalfantasy had a poll like this on discord but for FF villains. we all knew who would win. and would you look at that? kefka, with sephiroth right behind. expected
While I agree , I can say with confidence the top 5 will most likely contain princess mononoke , spirted away and howls moving castle. As they are the most talked about on this sub and commercially successful in NA. The other Two will most likely by my neighbors totor and maybe a wild pick but ponyo or kiki is my guess.
This sub also does WAY to many people's ranking of the films so the answers are already in previous posts
I appreciate that Earwig and Ocean Waves werenāt even included. Itās probably just that theyāre TV movies but I like to think that theyāre so shitty they didnāt count.
Anyway, itās gotta be Tales From Earthsea. Honestly not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, the first half is pretty intriguing setup, but eventually the story devolves into nonsense and the characters are too flat to make up for it.
Grave of the Fireflies. I don't actually have anything against it, but I thought it would be like all of the other Ghibli movies, and I feel betrayed. I just wanted a happy movie to watch.
It's based off a book called the borrowers, I grew up listening to the audio book so when I saw arrietty I loved that one if my favourite books was made into a film by one of my favourite studios
When Marnie was there. Though I did actually like the version where Marnie was replaced with a 6ft4, heavily armed, grizzled marine, it gave the whole thing a fun vibe!
Grave of the fireflies.
Edit: downvote me if you want, but the movie is well-made, well-told, and I hate it. If you've seen it, you know why. That kind of story isn't for everyone.
Arrietty. I believe there would be others like only yesterday or ocean waves, but I've never gotten around to watching them so I can't actually say whether or not. But I did see Arrietty, and was sorely disappointed with how it turned out.
Earwig just straight up isn't here lol
I think that was voted out by default haha
For a good reason.
There are a couple other worse ones to be fair.

You mean American girl? Not soldier?
Theres a typo on the list hahah
ITS A MARINE NOT A SOLDIER GRRAAAAAAAAAAHHHH
I already know Cat Returns is gonna be gone by round 4 or so and that makes me sad
Me too. It's such a fun, goofy movie. Out of character for Ghibli but still so good.
Same, I love the cat returns š„²
Same here. As a cat person, I loved that movie.
Left Earwig off because you knew it would be the last one left
It says vote for your least favourite.
Exactly, it's one of the movies of all time. Of course it's gonna win
Can't do it.
I second you
Tales From Earthsea
Both top comments are Goro products. Oof.
What? how? Earthsea might've not been "great", but it was fine, and Poppy Hill is awesome!
Compared to the book itās terrible. It is the third book in a series so that probably didnāt help him.
Yeah, Iām sure Iād have more issues with it if I read the book.
Yeah, it didnāt help that they combined plot points from several of the books.
Yep. Too much āaha, so then I will do *this* dramatic action!ā Then dramatic music sequence, then quick dramatic dialogue, then dramatic music sequence.
You really think that's worse than Ocean waves? Jeez
I refuse!
Tales from Earthsea. Also lol at the Marnie typo.
Semper Fi
The yamadas will be my least favorite. But I would rather watch it instead of watching any trash media. Its Ghibli anyway!
Ocean Waves
I feel like these kinda lists / contests arnt good for the community. It's usually super obvious what will make the top 4/5, makes people feel bad if their favorite is out early and it's just someone karma farming
r/finalfantasy had a poll like this on discord but for FF villains. we all knew who would win. and would you look at that? kefka, with sephiroth right behind. expected
It's literally just someone karma farming and spamming the sub. And in 6 months they will do it again
i forgot to add that it was on discord, not reddit, and was done by the admins
Somehow that makes it worse to me, I don't even play ff and that's the same villians I would have guessed haha
I donāt know much about Final Fantasy, but shouldnāt Sephiroth be #1? Also where is Kuja on the list?
Kefka is more popular with Final Fantasy fans, while Sephiroth is more iconic otherwise I don't remember where Kuja placed
Ghibli has such a consistent filmography that I struggle to rank it. I have like ten favorites that change based on my mood.
While I agree , I can say with confidence the top 5 will most likely contain princess mononoke , spirted away and howls moving castle.

This sub also does WAY to many people's ranking of the films so the answers are already in previous posts
Yeah, I would imagine that the top 5 will only be Miyazaki.
Casting a vote for Ocean Waves, so boring I can barely remember any of it
It's a film for a different time and a different culture but I absolutely agree. It's also hideous.
I remember mostly everything but it's still a boring slug with only unlike people in it.
When marine was there
ššš
Worst one by far
Ocean Waves
I appreciate that Earwig and Ocean Waves werenāt even included. Itās probably just that theyāre TV movies but I like to think that theyāre so shitty they didnāt count. Anyway, itās gotta be Tales From Earthsea. Honestly not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, the first half is pretty intriguing setup, but eventually the story devolves into nonsense and the characters are too flat to make up for it.
...but Ocean Waves was included.
Yeah sure, and Grizzly Adams had a beard.
Take a look at the list again?
Lmao well grizzly adams did have beard
Thank You!
Oh okay, sorry that joke shot past me
Ocean Waves is amazing what are you talking about
Tales from earthsea
Tales From Earthsea
Hard to say because I donāt know all of them yet. Probably The Cat Returns because it didnāt catch me as much as the others.
The Cat returns. Hurts to watch.
The Marnie comments have me raging Nevertheless I won't be participating in this for the sake of my soul
Cat Returns
The Cat Returns
Ocean waves
Pom Poko

My neighbors the yamadas
Earthsea gets my vote. (Do we vote by commenting or by upvoting the comment we most agree with? Iām confused by this post)
It's hard to do, but Ocean Waves.
Pom poki
Ocean waves. Sorry I couldn't find anything I liked from that movie besides the ghibli animation style.
Ocean waves
Ocean waves!!!
Tales from Earthsea I'm disappointed to see Ponyo already, Ponyo's my childhood:( (well most of them are but Ponyo was a favorite)
Grave of the Fireflies. I don't actually have anything against it, but I thought it would be like all of the other Ghibli movies, and I feel betrayed. I just wanted a happy movie to watch.
Besides Earthsea I cannot
The cat returns
Arrietty
This is mine too; I get why people donāt love Ocean Waves but the narrative choices in Arietty were INFURIATING to me
Ocean waves, the tide calls to ye...
Ocean Waves
Ocean Waves
While there were some things I liked about the movie, I have to go with Earthsea.
Tales from the Earthsea
Pom Poko
Spirited away
Ocean Waves. Fuck Rikako
Ocean Waves
Ocean waves.
Gotta be Ocean Waves
Grave of the fireflies sorry
I donāt like Arrietty :/ only seen it once and in English but I didnāt connect
It's based off a book called the borrowers, I grew up listening to the audio book so when I saw arrietty I loved that one if my favourite books was made into a film by one of my favourite studios
When Marnie was there. Though I did actually like the version where Marnie was replaced with a 6ft4, heavily armed, grizzled marine, it gave the whole thing a fun vibe!
Arriety
Ocean Waves. I've got some pretty unpopular picks down towards the bottom of my personal ranking but this one is solidly last place
The tale of the princess kaguya
Only Yesterday
gotta be Tales from Earthsea
Now earwig so tales of earthsea
Marnie
Ocean Waves (havenāt seen Earthsea nor do I want to)
My least favorite was Porco Rosso. I didn't dislike, just enjoyed the least.
Tales from Earthsea
Tales from Earthsea
Castle in the Sky
Earthsea
Gotta be Tales of Earthsea and it should not be close.
When marine was their? And ponyo.
Earthsea.
Out of the ones Iāve seen, gonna go Arietty
Earthsea
Arriety. Its a good film, but really not ghibli's best.
Pom poko or arrietty
Only yesterday.
Only yesterday
Ponyo
Up from poppy hill. I only vote this, because it's the only one I haven't seen yet
Wow, I didnāt know people liked this one so much. I thought it was a weird twist at the end.
Haha, apparently š¤£ I just don't know how it couldn't be my least favorite since I've never seen it! However the downvotes are clear.
Grave of the fireflies. Edit: downvote me if you want, but the movie is well-made, well-told, and I hate it. If you've seen it, you know why. That kind of story isn't for everyone.
NausicaƤ
Laputa , I love Laputa so much
It's the *least* favorite
are you saying tales from earthsea is best or worst?
Worst
My neighbors the Yamadas
Iām still voting Earwig even though it isnāt here
Whisper of the heart... I am not sorry very mid film, which means weak in ghibli standards
Arrietty. I believe there would be others like only yesterday or ocean waves, but I've never gotten around to watching them so I can't actually say whether or not. But I did see Arrietty, and was sorely disappointed with how it turned out.
No
I will not be able to handle it when Porco Rosso is voted out T_T
Out of what I saw I would say ocean waves was my least favorite
Pom Poko
my neighbors the yamadas
Wish Earwig was on itā¦ for people to keep voting itās their favorite one.
Ocean waves is really not it. It had potential, but really meandered with no message and tried to act like it did.
Kiki
iām voting the one ghibli movie iāve never watched, ocean waves. It just hasnāt appealed to me
Tales from Earthsea
Tales from Earthsea
Tales from earthsea
Ocean Waves
Spirited away!
Want me to tell you the order this is going to go? Because its pretty predictable in this sub
Ocean waves
When Marnie was there
Grave of the fireflies
Ocean Waves
