i could be considered the ghibli version of a disney adult but without hoarding themed stuff. i go to gkids every year. ok-
this depends on how you define underrated..
the boy and the heron? so underrated. if you haven’t, watch it because it’s all the things a ghibli movie is: top tier animation, sobering themes, cozy/low stimulation scenes, character decisions that catch you off guard. they’re so good at telling a story.
whisper of the heart is the cutest little low stim comfort film about falling in love. it’s a warm hug like totoro (without the dying mother :/)
the cat returns is not low stim but it’s fun and cheeky in a way the others aren’t. it gives me princess bride vibes i can’t explain why.

if you haven't already watched this, you might like it. it's a wes anderson movie so its got a very specific aesthetic that I think is really cool and its just a silly coming of age story. its pretty similar to fantastic mr fox, but its also just a really good movie by itself

probably the most whimsical movie to exist and a staple of my childhood. it’s been a while since i last watched it so i don’t really remember how the story holds up, but i trust younger me’s judgment.
it still has one of my favourite set and costume designs of any film ever. the things i would do to get my hands on those dresses!!
so so nostalgic and so so pretty!
