Every single one is fucking garbage, I have no idea why this is popular

>>36471 The answer is simple and quite obvious, because not everybody shares your opinion. The films gain popularity among those who enjoy them, not among those who hate them. But I doubt they are as popular, no one else has responded.

Their stuff is fucking horrible, but they're super popular because it's normie tier trash. Don't you see what the general populace likes? They like the dumbest, slowest, least creative shit that's just new. It's Disney for Japan, the reason he got in to animation was Disney and he sold out to Disney so it's basically Disney aka crap.

The worst part about all that studio's things is that there's never a concrete ending to any of the IPs. Just kinda a should shrug.

Yeah and Ghbili isn't for anime people.

I have to concur that it is essentially Disney animation. While it can be watched by older audiences, that is not it's target audience. While it has little to no appeal to traditional anime fans, I would not refer to it as garbage. For what it is, the production values and quality are quite high.

Anime fans are rood doods if it's not to our liking it's trash, like pacific rim.

what discussion do you hope to have making shitposts like these?

>>36495
It's not a shitpost, that's how it is.

>>36497
dismissing all ghibli films like even the worst (ponyo) has no merit is just shitposting. not everything needs to be polarized, the films aren't for everyone but just dropping into a thread to say 'its shit' isn't conductive to conversation. proper etiquette would be to cite an example and argue a point you are trying to make. a shitpost is dumping into a thread to say somethings shit because its popular or use a blanket complaint like "never a concrete ending" as if that means anything without context

My thoughts are that if you don't like Ghibli, then by default you don't like anime. What is anime if not visual ANIMATION, and by god does Ghibli have some of the best animation around. The backgrounds alone make the movies worth a watch, never-mind the smoothness and lifelike amount of movement in each scene. I would classify Ghibli movies as worth a watch even if they had no story at all, that is just how good their animation and art teams are.

Are the stories simple? Yeah, and I don't see a problem with that. There is nothing wrong with the straightforward and honest stories Ghibli does. Don't get me wrong, they have faults to them, especially stuff like Howl's Moving Castle or Ponyo, but the majority of their stories are wonderful adventures start to finish.

Miyazaki himself is a genius, and I realized that when I first read Nausicaa in its manga form. Which if you haven't done so already, please do go and read that. That anyone can bring themselves to disregard his works, is in my opinion holding the mark of a true contrarian who simply hates that which is popular. I do think however, that Takahata is a bit forgotten about and lost in Miyazaki's great shadow. Only Yesterday as a masterpiece of SOL to me, and truly doesn't get the recognition it deserves.

I feel like everybody likes them that I meet. Even my normie gf knows a couple of them.

operative word "normie".
not insulting, just seconding.

If you like Ghbliargbage you should watch Paprika at least

I don't like every movie they make, but they have created some of my favorites.
