I got two similarities, one serious, one random and silly

Serious one: Clarisse's model was used as the Nausicaa model-




Silly one: Notice the difference yet similarity-

Nausicaa: You must stop!


Me: NOOOOO YOU CAN'T LEAVE IT THERE!!! GAAARRRR!!!!

I think that Nausicäa of the Valley of the Wind, and Princess Mononoke have almost identical storylines...
[list]
[*]The protagonists are girls (I'm taking Mononoke as the main character, not Ashitaka)
[*]The main enemy is a woman
[*]There's rampaging animals (bugs or boars) filled with hate
[*]Both relate to human kind's bond with environment
[*]Both conclude with a big battle
[*]Both have a town being destroyed (Irontown and that strange capital that's destroyed by Ohmu... if i remember correctly)
[*]Both have humans who are oblivious to the extent of damage they are dealing to the environment
[/list]

And there are less obvious, small similarites I remember posting when i first saw the film... I really need to watch Nausicäa again, it's been a while since I watched it...

EDIT: Lol, I love the Sponge Bob movie, JRR!!

Not really -- I'm talking about the sliding-plates-like motion (I don't know how else to describe it) of both the ohmu and Howl's castle.

I know what you mean!!
The different parts move in and out of each other..
Especially to be seen when the Ohms turn, eg: in the scene where nausicaa calms down the Ohm following Lord Yupa..
Its like different parts of them (ohm and castle) are on different levels of animaion and are moved separately!!
I like that simliarity!!

Exactly!

Also, these strike me as very similar:
Clarrise from "The Castle of Cagliostro":

Thea from "The Journey of Shuna" (a Miyazaki manga from 1983):

It's from Episode 155 of the second Lupin III series, "Farewell, Beloved Lupin", directed and written/storyboarded by Hayao Miyazaki.

I heard about that. Cagliostro was the second Ghibli film I ever watched, and I thought it was well cool
