  Coolest Ghibli MomentsPost Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by O-Jay88 Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

Ghibli films are often considered to be cute and family friendly, but sometimes there are moments that are just downright awesome. What moments in the Ghibli films do you consider the coolest or most badass? What moments made you think "Dude, that was awesome!", or "Nice!", or gives you a grin of satisfaction?

For me some moments include (SPOILERS!!):

1. Ashitaka catching an enemy's arrow, using it to kill him, then decapitating another one with another arrow. Though it is violent, it is also badass.

2. The entire dogfight at the end of Porco Rosso.

3. Lupin running vertically down a wall to save Clarisse in Castle of Cagliostro.

4. The robot wreaking havoc at the military base in Laputa, Castle in the Sky.

5. When Kiki regains her ability to fly, there's a moment of utter silence as she concentrates, the dust fly away in a shockwave and she rushes into the air.

In Howl's Moving Castle, when Howl confronts his mother. She sends a tidal wave at him, they float in the air with dancing things, Howl transforms, and then they fly out a glass window.

How could this scene not be awesome?

Also:



And not forgetting:



In fact, let's just place Porco up there in the No.1 Coolest Ghibli Character slot.
