Good list! But please put a BIG spoiler alert on the title and first paragraph so people won’t get pissed. Luckily I’ve seen all the films, but will likely watch a bunch of them again for a long time.

My TOP3
1. Whisper of the Heart
2. Grave of the Fireflies (tho this might drop as I’ve seen it some 15 years ago)
3. Mononoke-hime

My kids’ TOP3
1. Totoro
2. Ponyo
3. Pom Poko (despite the long-ass length, most be them ballsacks!)

Many of the films aren’t dubbed to our language, but the ones for younger audience are :)
