Studio Ghibli Stans Spill Their Most Unpopular Opinions

Studio Ghibli has been around for decades at this point, and it has a film catalog others dreams about. The company has wowed global audiences time and again with its classics. Whether it is The Tale of Princess Kaguya or Spirited Away, there is a film for everyone at Studio Ghibli, but that doesn't mean the brand is faultless. And over on social media, fans have started sharing some of their most unpopular opinions about the company for all to see.

The ordeal began when a user know as Javi_draws made a post asking for fans to share their most unpopular Studio Ghibli opinions. It did not take long before the thread went viral, and it was there fans went off. Netizens had some big grievances to shares, and the Internet played host to their critiques.

You can see some of the most talked-about replies in the slides below. Not even films like Kiki's Delivery Service or Howl's Moving Castle made it out of this pitch unscathed. Fans took up their issues with directors Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata as well, but their opinions were not shared in anger.

No, that is far from Studio Ghibli's style. What fans wanted was to see if others experienced the same issues they did, and that in and of itself is very Ghibli-esque. The company has always focused on the connected threads of humanity and nature, so this bonding experience is maybe the most on-brand thing for Studio Ghibli to evoke. Even if that does leave Princess Mononoke vulnerable to some low blows online...
