A beautiful examination of childhood trauma

the magic found in the simple, everyday moments of childhood. If you don’t like this movie we’re probably not gonna hang out after work 😬

A delightful family story that I can’t wait to show to my kids. Beautifully animated!

Big fluff demon shows up, says nothing, fixes vibes. No notes. Totoro 2025 presidential run when?

every time i watch this, i feel like i'm transported back to playing in my yard as a kid, where everything was magical.

Theee best! Such a creative eye opener, recommend it to people of all ages. Sad and sweet and funny. Classic

A family friendly slice of life movie created by studio ghibli. I enjoyed it very much
