I like how, just because it is animation catered towards children, it doesn't underestimate the viewer. Also, I really love the dynamic between Anastasia and her love interest. They both have a lot of personality and enjoy seeing them together. Probably one of my favorite depictions of a couple in film.

Bro I absolutely love this movie so much. The music, animation, and relationships between the characters are so well done.

My favorite work from Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli, as well as one of the first anime I watched when I was a kid and didn't even know what anime was (the first was Pokemon lol). The nostalgia is real but I connect with this film so much more in my late twenties.
When I think of Howl's Moving Castle, I think of love and just how life-changing it can be when you meet someone new who ends up being someone important and special. When people are positive influences on each other and they are for the better from having met and maintaining those bonds. Quite frankly, I live for this shit. This is ofc most evident between the two leads Howl and Sophie, but it's not exclusive to them.
I also think of just how goddamn beautiful and magical this movie is to watch, but that's pretty par for the course when it comes to Miyazaki/Ghibli :)

I loved Stuart Little growing up and just rewatched it. Me and both of my sisters are weirdly obsessed with it. I still tear up at the scene when Stuart is racing his model boat in Central Park and Jonathan Lipnicki who plays his brother goes โThatโs not a mouse, thatโs my brother!!!โ. Awesome scene. I think we need more earnest movies like Stuart Little. Itโs a biblical tale that shows you how anyone can do anything, even if the world just sees them as some little mouse ๐ Zootopia is another one of my favorites.
