I have always loved watching anime. Maybe because I love the colors, their cute faces and the 'not so violent" nature(hehe). But I started really getting into it when 7 years ago, a friend of mine introduced me to "Grave of the fireflies", it was a tragic and sad film but little did I know that I will get addicted to it. I love it especially listening to their background music. But it was only this year that I really get to see a lot of animation films. A friend of mine gave me a couple of DVDs which are from Ghibli Studios. I started watching "Spirited Away" and I fell in love with chihiro's character, then "Porco Rosso" in which I fell in love with "Gina and Marco's theme". I really love the music!! and then I also like "Castle in the Sky", "Whisper of the Heart"; I love their version of Country road, it was really cute,Howl's moving castle; this one is my favorite of al as it has a happy ending, "My neighbor Totoro", Kiki's Delivery Service and many others. One thing I have really noticed with these films is that character's movements are not boring, like, you wouldn't expect cartoon characters to trip and fall, everything was like done and have been animated in their " natural" state. Now these films wouldn't be possible without these Two people: Hayao Miyazaki and Joe Hisaishi...Thanks to these two...now am addicted!!!...I searched all of youtube for their videos and I was blessed to have found a lot and I always play them whenever I want to relax, coz they relaxes me and takes my mind off of my work.
