- Sophie, an average teenage girl working in a hat shop, finds her life thrown into turmoil when she is literally swept off her feet by a handsome but mysterious wizard named Howl. After this chance meeting she is turned into a 90-year old woman by the vain and conniving Witch of the Waste. Embarking on an incredible adventure to lift the curse, she finds refuge in Howl's magical moving castle where she becomes acquainted with Markl, Howl's apprentice, and a hot-headed fire demon named Calcifer. As the true power of Howl's wizardry is revealed, and his relationship with Sophie deepens, our young grey heroine finds herself fighting to protect them both from a dangerous war of sorcery that threatens their world.

9 year old me knew Howl was fine af and 17 year old me still agrees
Lmaoo ikr
LMAO SAME
and my older sis commented of how how handsome he is
Same😊
Exactly
I really love the scene where Howl's hair becomes orange. He is such a cry baby 😂
Lol
I even thought it was another person for a sec 😂
@@angellinachan9868 same
Lol me too! I laughed so hard. I don't remember that at all until I rewatched the movie today!!
Daniel Bautista rightt
Honestly Howl having a mental breakdown because his hair changed color and he's not "pretty" anymore is such a mood.
We stan a dramatic man ❤️👄❤️
Ikrr
In that scene he reminded me of Tamaki Suoh from Ouran High School Host Club
I mean..I was sad too- when you actually like blonde it kinda hits you hard :,)
Leo vibes
I’m only one who pissed that Disney basically said THEY OWN THIS?!
mood, and I´m a Disney fan
Disney owns everything they can’t make... they’re the lame rich kid in town
ghibli films actually didnt want to agree with this but ya know its Disney 😔
I know right? I was also mad about that
Bruh I thought I was the only one 🙈
Howl looks like an older version of Haku
Ikr
Right ????
the 7th sense TRUE
I think you mean *Ko*haku
(That's the actual name of him before Yababa stole it)
Wifi Thief same thing lmao
We all fall in love with Howl since the 1st encounter, but we grew to admire Sophie through her struggles.
She is, in my opinion, one of the strongest female character ever. When the witch turned her old, she didn't complain, but just composed herself & sucked it up. She struggled in her old body, but is determine to break the spell. She faced the fearful creatures with compassion and even finds humour in her crazy situation. Discovering this film at the age of 26, in the crazy world right now, I found her calm strength to be truly inspiring.
Well one of the reasons why she didnt complain much was because she was always lowkey want it that way
I first watched this when i was 8 and fell in love instantly with a child's heart and now that I'm 18, now that I fully understand how good the story is, I fell in love more. Sophie has a kind heart. She shouldn't feel that way , she's young but her mental state is old, she's workaholic and never confident of her beauty
I agree. I'm also binge-watching Sir Miyazaki's films.
THESE WERE MY EXACT THOUGHTS!! She is soo strong unlike other book girl characters.
I agree. The one thing I would criticize her for was she was really unfair and mean towards the fire demon in the beginning, but she does eventually change that too.
"Now straighten your legs and start walking
See? not so hard is it.
You are a natural
That's my girl"
The dialogue that made everyone have a crush on Howl
YEEES
Yea thanks for reminding, was just on the brink of getting over him
Disney could never make this masterpiece 😤😤
@@juginstin right l lawliet
Just hope younger generation will not be stupid and misunderstanding that, lol. Ah shit I'm become boomer now
Yes, Disney could never make a movie like this. After all, they will at least try to write a more or less logical script with an understandable plot, and not an incoherent ending that breaks the plot lines without a logical conclusion.
@@tatamak23 yeah, just for you😏
@@shlurpydurp1804 who gives a shit..🤷♂️
Howl never fails to charm me. in love with him forever and always 😭
Me too ....min yoonji 😅
@Scarlette Saturnino
no one can be howl
We All Are
You still in love 2020
me tooo!!!!
"That's my girl"
For fuck's sake, Howl is the best. I love him. I fucking love this movie from my heart.
Does he say this in the trailer? I didn’t hear it
GOD THE FUCKING BUTTERFLIES I GET FROM THAT LINE-
@@biolotea3350 He said it in the movie
@@biolotea3350 i think he says it at 0:34
THIS IS THE COMMENT I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR!! When he said “that’s my girl.” I was gone with the wind😭❤️
I really liked how calm sophie was when she looked in to mirror after turning old.
Sophie is the female character everyone needs but doesn’t get. Instead of just making a woman feel like a man, she embraces her femininity. She is brave, smart, and funny. Even when she was cursed she didn’t let it get to her. Her weaknesses are the best part because you can relate with her. She isn’t “little miss perfect” if you get my drift. She is human, and we get to see her triumph throughout the film. 😊
Yes! But it is always ok to let women be more masculine too!
Why is everyone not talking about the wheezing dogg😭😂 I've been laughing straight 5 min. I can't 😂
i know, like everytime it wheezes, i laughed so bad that i have to pause it lol
It's SO ANNOYING! But funny at the same time thinking that Suliman probably casted a quiet spell on it cause it couldn't stop barking hahahaha
What timestamp? What dog? Am I crazy, I rewatched it 5 times.
The model of that dog is Mamoru Osii. He is dear friend of Hayao Miyazaki.
Seriously, the dog was just so comedic. Besides his wheezing, he had this deadpan face, which made it all the more funny!
who cried while watching a movie and then cried when it finished coz it was beautiful and you want more? just me? k 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Julia Pluta me too your not alone 😭😭😭😭

Julia Pluta i almost cried
It was quite charming.
Everyone's gangster until the castle starts moving
One of the most beautiful films ever created.
I went to a special, early viewing of it in the UK. I cried about 10 minutes in, simply because of how gorgeous it was.
I cried too👍🙂
all the girls are talking about their childhood crush on howl, but as a guy I have to say man Sophie was cute especially when her hair turned to star light! and was short but not too short at the end. I've been crushing on short haired girls ever since... I'm tempted to read the books as the movie is based on the first.
The books are so good! They aren’t as good as the movie but still! Just remember that they’re NOTHING like the movie since the movie is anime and the books are British
@@WhatRemainsofNovaJames Thanks for the reply! yeah I checked the synopsis of the book and it sounds somewhat different so I'm going to go in expecting something different but maybe with a similar flavor to the story.
My name is Sophie and i have short hair and tbh this made me so happy for some reasons
@@sophtie2659 What are the chances, glad it made you happy keep rocking the short hair!
@@ericnesbitt1734 :))
The fact that Sophie's own mother betrayed her
Stepmother*
And how it didn't matter thanks to Sophie's kindness of taking care of the old experienced witch.
What happend to sophie's mother after the movie
@@marissabaquiran8190 nothing happened
TILL THIS DAY TILL THIS DAY
The fact he even wait for her and he still love her and didn’t care how she look in old form it’s just touch my heart ❣
i thought he was a player before meeting sophie? thought he talking to multiple women and even got rejected by one to the point to have a mental breakdown. did he really wait?
I like to think that he met multiple women because he was searching for Sophie :)
Can I just say that young Howl is absolutely *adorable*
Howl’s voice is the sexiest thing. Change my mind
Well he's Batman...
@@letterm6656 christiaaaaaan
Christian Bale
YESS😁
You should hear levi Ackerman voice then 😏😏😏 hes from aot btw
Lol i bet everyones fangirling over howl right now XD
I agree with you 👍😁
Marsh Yellow It says he's handsome, and he is, so WHY CAN'T A GIRL FANGIRL OVER HOW CUTE HOWL IS? :D
I am going to watch this movie because of him
+Marsh Yellow yup XD bc they have a crush on him XDD bc its anime and anime is awesome and my classmate has a crush on him XDDD bc i told her about the movie and she watched it XDD
Obviously!
Idk if everybody will relate but.. It hit different when i remember watching studio ghibli films in summer and not overthinking the story but enjoing the film without any problems... And after many yrs the way i rewatch them if feels like... Such a wonderful memories studio ghibli and Mr. Hayao miyazaki gives to me🤧💖
My soul blessed with the films
The fact this movie achieved such immaculate animation in 2004 is magic in itself. Studio Ghibli did the trick!
Someone give the trailer guy a cough drop
EmeraldCity I think he is fine
XD!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Seriously tho
I think it's Hal Douglas who narrated Commando, Big Trouble in Little China, Die Hard trilogy and more action film trailers
I wish they would make a 2nd Howl's Moving Castle because I literally can't get enough of Howl 😩
Michaela Caleb In anime that doesn't happen a lot so it's very rare to see s sequel to this.
Michaela Caleb read the original book series.
if only.
Nope no luck, It's been nearly 13 years ever since the movie was released
read the book trilogy, is so damn fun
Guys I’m crying rn 😭😭😭
I finally finished this!!! Granted it’s not full speed , more like 75% but I’m getting there! It took me 4 months! I started learning piano with a teacher 6 months ago but had 4 years of self taught learning to back me up, I love this rendition so much , dare I say more than Kyle landry’s
My first Ghibli movie. Watch it in 2007 at 28 years old. Fell in love with Studio Ghibli ever since.
I'm looking forward to the new one!
@@user12328g new one? Directed by Hayao Miyazaki? Cool will check it out
CHRISTIAN BALE VOICE AS HOWL I'M ON THE FLOOR.
True true true!!!
OMG i thought his voice was familiar but i just coudn't remember wowwww
Rebecca L lol They won't resist
Christian Bale sounds constipated...
YOU"RE SHITTING ME!!!!!!! NO fucking way!!!!
The leading male character is so hot
Howl really is

OMG! yes!
This movie definitely goes in the romance category. Not only does the boy gets the girl but the scarecrow and the talking fire get the girl as well, lucky lads.
After 8 years I'm still in love with Howl ❤️ i don't know why , but this is that movie what you can watch 10 times and wanted more 🥰🌺
Am I the only one who feels that strange feeling after you watched it?. Like happy, mesmerized or something?.
Damn... Howl and Haku is my crush now
Omgg samee and I know I'm a year late but I watched it as a kid not rly knowing what was going on and I had this very weird memory of it so I decided to rewatch it😂
A lot of Ghibli Movies are like that
Same bruh
Had this weird flashback of this bird dude month ago and now i've finally found this movie.
I remember the movie feeling like a fever dream (i was like 5 tho and saw it accidentally )
Same bruhh, i'm in love with howl and haku now 😍
Why am I so in love with Howl?
Michaela Caleb The only real question is why wouldnt you be in love with Howl
Michaela Caleb Read the book and you'll love him even more 😍😍😍
I KNOOOOOW WHYYYY I HATE MY DILUMB HEART FRO MAKING ME ATTRACTED TO A BUNCH OF LINES AND COLRS
2 words CHRISTIAN BALE
3 years down and i still haven't been able to figure out why
Okay. I just finished watching this and I'm still crying. It's so beautiful and magical. I'm so blown away. There's a lot of metaphors and hidden details which I spot almost immediately and some I just checked here in the comments. My god! I'm so late to this masterpiece but I'm glad I watched it first at this point in my life. Every character was amazingly done it's so perfect!!!
if you haven't already, please watch all the other studio ghibli films as well 😭 they're sooo freaking beautiful!!!
@@btchyep8830 indeed
@@btchyep8830 I just bought the collection set for my children and I. I have never seen them😢 before and I’m 35. We watched spirited away last night as the first one. Today we will try another. ❤
@@kittycat8222 hiiii whisper of the heart is my fave movie ever 😭
@@btchyep8830 thank you for telling me! We have not watched that one yet but plan to. We watched Totoro this morning for the first time. We all loved it.
Disney didn’t do shit 😂 it’s all Miyazaki and the brilliant minds in studio Ghibli, Walt Disney could never 😏👌🏻 period!
Edit: ok for those who are getting offended calm yo ass 😂 Jesus it’s just an opinion yall act like if I ran over yalls puppy, I didn’t realize I was gonna get so many Karen’s 👀
The story already existed but yes Ghibli deserve the credit for this beautiful film.
Yes ma'am
Tom Divis yes but what I’m trying to say is Disney didn’t do shit it was all Miyazaki and the minds behind ghibli studio, Disney just slapped their name on there acting like they participate on making the movie when they didn’t do shit :) also I’m pretty sure If Disney made this movie it would of turned out like shit and PG cuz trust me in the movie they show 🍑😂 and Disney would never do that, only ghibli and Miyazaki have those talents to make that beautiful movie
@@amberscrocodiletears agreed
@@amberscrocodiletears ...I mean, Disney is the distributor of the film and they gave full credit to Miyazaki as his film and full credit to Studio Ghibli producing it? Why wouldn't they put their name on it? This is generally how, you know, releasing movies work???
Anyone who noticed that Sophie said near the end of the movie (when she saw Howls backstory and how he made the bargain with Calcifer) she said to him "Wait for me in the future"
In the beginning when Howl and Sophie first meet he said "There you are, sorry I'm late. Where have you been"
@Timberwolf Yea, he was pretending to be her boyfriend so the guards could leave her alone.
@@blushuwu911 it could also mean that howl was looking for her since he remembered a girl saying “wait for me in the future” when he was young
@@blushuwu911 he was actually looking for her his whole life, that's why he said "there u are sweetheart, I've been look for you" and he pretended to be her bf
@@minsungissailing6720 that’s so cute 🤧
If you thought you understood this movie, think again! These "facts" will help you better understand a complex plot of this movie:
*1.* In the first scene where Howl and Sophie meet, Howl says "I've been looking for you" because he really was looking for her. In fact, his ring was shining to find her in that scene.
*2.* Howl was already aware that the old granny, Sophie, was actually a young lady from the first sight.
*3.* Then he broke a spell by erasing the burn on the table.
*4.* The spell Sophie got is not just making someone older, instead it is changing someone depending on its mind.
*5.* That's why Sophie still remained old after Howl broke the spell.
*6.* Calcifer says "You got complex spell" to her because he knew the fact 4.
*7.* Howl says "Though the burn disappears the spell won't disappear" because he knew the fact 4 as well.
*8.* Howl met Sophie when he was a child. So he's been looking for her.
*9.* Howl gave her a ring saying "For your safe return." But he meant not only to his castle, but also to his past. Howl knew she would go back to his childhood.
*10.* During the movie, Sophie gets older or younger, back and forth, because the spell is up to her mind.
*11.* Howl wanted her to stay young because that was the only moment she likes just the way she is, gets confidence and obediently expresses her feeling for Howl.
*12.* Howl moves to her born house in order to change her mind. In fact, she remembers her young memory and gets young.
*13.* Howl looks sad when she gets old because of the fact 9.
*14.* Howl transforms into a bird because then he gets stronger powers from Calcifer.
*15.* That's why Calcifer warns Howl "If you keep on flying, one day you won't be able to get back to human".
*16.* Howl was almost becoming a monster and there wasn't much time left to wait for her.
*17.* Howl made a contract with Calcifer just because he wanted to help him.
*18.* Stars die when they fall into ground. You can see some of them disappear into a river when Sophie goes back to the past.
*19.* Making a contract is not a good thing for both Howl and Calcifer but they didn't know it at first.
*20.* Howl says" Why? I've been escaping enough. I got an important thing to protect. It's you". Howl has been hiding from Suliman and the Witch of the waste by moving the castle and having lots of fake names. But this time he couldn't move from Sophie's born house because he could do nothing but to wait for her to change staying there. (see fact 11)
*21.* In a dream, Sophie meets Howl transformed into a monster bird badly. He says "You can't even break your own spell!" and this is because he is waiting for her fighting in a war and protecting her. And he also says "It's too late" meaning he became a bird too much and can't be a human any more. It's just a dream, but she couldn't understand the meaning correctly.
*22.* Sophie says, "I'll keep on walking." when she gets back from the past. It's a reply to Howl's words in the first scene. When they walk in the sky, Howl says "Keep on walking".
*23.* Her ring breaks when she saw him in a childhood because that was the main purpose of a ring and it's done. She finally understood everything at that moment.
*24.* After that Howl was waiting in front. She says "I'm sorry, you've been waiting for me all this time, but I couldn't get it." This line is because of the fact 21.
*25.* When she kissed him, he was not moving. That's because he was really on the point of a monster as a dream said before. He was running the risk of it, but just waiting for her protecting the castle. In fact, his body had grown really big in the scene.
*26.* After she understood everything, she stopped thinking of herself badly and didn't get old anymore.
*27.* Her hair remains in silver because she stays young in her will and not because her spell was completely vanished.
*28.* Howl fell in love with Sophie because she was actually a witch with a power to make creatures alive. He didn't have his heart and she was filling that emptiness.
*bonus fact: I didn't write any of this, I've just copied it.

This movie is what gets me through tough times again and again . I am at the darkest time in my life and this cheers me up ❤ i would have given up if i were in sophie's place . Sophie is so strong willed , she inspires me to face my own troubles .
Howl is so hot.

FUCKING TRUE
TRUE TRUE TRUE
JUST GOT DONE WATCHING THIS AND TRUE
@@powsvalentine good luck being a fangirl
This was the very first Hayao Miyazaki film I ever saw.
mine too ^-^
me too :) such a great movie
Moi aussi
me 2 ❤
Mine was "tales of Earthsea"
I remember reading Howls Moving Castle when I was about 10 years old. I loved it and was going to watch the movie, but eventually forgot. A few years later I found the movie again while looking at studio Ghibli and watched it. I love the animations, everything about it is amazing. I always felt that movies could never be as good as books and although they didn't add some details that are in the book, it is still probably my favourite movie ever.
This movie left me so mesmerised never knew something this beautiful existed
Howls moving castle is now my favorite movie of all time.
Why:)?
Kaylanise Ford Same.
me toooo, just by listening to the ost, all my senses seem to stop immediately
I like when marnie was there more
There is something about Howl that makes us fall hardly in love for him. HE IS SO HOT! His soothing voice and ways. Ugghhh I think Calcifer is in my body. HAHA
FR- i cant stop re watching it
Damn woman...
The fact that these notes in this particular pattern make hundreds of humans feel the same longing and nostalgia for something that doesn't exist....that's magic. That is what magic is.
The first time when i see this trailer was in the chiken little dvd at my 5 years old, i was scared by all the thematic but now i understand all this master piece.❤
I just realized that one of the theme of this movie is women empowerment. Sophie's character was shown to be really fragile, but as the movie progresses, her character developed into someone strong-willed. Sophie's love for all the characters in the Castle, (even the Witch Of The Waste) saved everyone. Sophie loves Howl and was saved by her, and through that, Howl's love saved Sophie from the curse.
It wasn't Prince Charming who kissed Sleeping Beauty. It was this young lady's love, powerful enough, to set them free.
And spoiler alert, Sophie kissed all the characters in the Castle, her love, lift the curse.
“Many of my movies have strong female leads-brave, self-sufficient girls that don't think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They'll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a savior. Any woman is just as capable of being a hero as any man.” -Hayao Miyazaki
Chihiro, Nausicaa, Sophie, Kiki, San, Ponyo. Miyazaki's films are full of positive examples of female heroes.
Almost All Ghibli films have female leads..... partially because Hayao lost his mother really young and like to give her strong personality to the characters. I am not sure it's about woman empowerment
@@neilb143 that is woman empowerment though
*exemplar to women... or *recognition of women capabilities...
I really wish Western entertainment would learn a thing or two from the way that Myazaki writes his female characters.

I just watched this with my niece tonight and I must say this is one of the best stories I've ever seen. 💘
My first ever Japanese movie, introduced me to world of anime, introduced me to the beauty that is Ghibli. Still is and always will be my favorite.
me too no wait i did not even was yet
I actually fell in love with Howl amd wanted to cry so bad.
That feeling 😭😭
He is sooo handsome😍😍😍
😭😭😭🧡🧡🧡 i Love Howl and Sophie😭😭🧡🧡🧡
Yo I agree. Haku too, my first childhood crush. 😭❤

The problem with animations are they are not real so it leaves us frustrated😓

GreenFlashAtSunset I was 4 years old when I watched it 2004
Me too, I was 2 the first time I saw it and I never stopped seeing it again
Howl my crush 🥺🧡🧡🧡🌟
I am so disappointed in the fact that this trailer presents it like it is Howl who saves Sophie, when she is the one who saves him and herself in the process!!
I recently read the book for the first time, and I was completely blown away by how utterly different it is from the movie. It's like it's a completely different story. Like major, major things about events and characters are totally different. Oddly enough, and this is very rare for me, I have to admit that I like the movie better than the book. Howl is definitely more adorable and attractive in the movie. Fun fact: in the book Howl is from Wales (in the UK), and he's just a regular guy there, whose name is Howell Jenkins. His sister thinks he's a deadbeat. Also... the part at the start of the movie where creepy guys call Sophie a little mouse and Howl gallantly rescues her? In the book it was Howl who called her a little mouse and creeped her out, there was no charming rescue scene.
I don't care how many times I see this movie, I'm 17 now and I first watched it when I was nine, every time I watch it I get absolute chills when I hear the first few notes of Merry Go Round of Life in the beginning. I'm a massive movie buff and I love films, but I've never found amovie that touches me as deeply as this one does. There's just something utterly fantasical and whimsical about it, but everything from the emotions to the character's are so fundamentally human. I always feel quite burdened with responsibility of trying to uphold what people think me to be (shy, quiet, respectfu, opinionated, kind and studious) and I really saw myself within sophie, even from a young age and it just reminds me to be who I am and fight for what I want, not what other people want. I don't think words can even explain how much this movie means to me, it's utterly breathtaking.
Now that you are close to the age of the main character, Sophie, has your interpretation of the message you received from the film changed a little from when you first saw it? Question from a Japanese.
I watched it today for the first time and I am 17 haha. It is really a good movie and I'd definitely recommend it to other people to at least watch it once in their lifetime.
Lets get one thing straight here guys. This film is NOT a Disney film. It is only dubbed and distrabuted in America by Disney, thats all they did, they did not create it or produce this amazing film it is made by Studio Ghibli.
THANKYOU
THANKYOU
THANKYOU
Relax dude we know that 😂
Thanks for reminding me, I totally missed when they said it in the trailer 20 times
I saw this movie about 12 years ago and it is still one of my favorites among the hundreds I've seen. Merry go round of life holds a special place in my heart.
My Opinion on Sophie is just the same what a strong woman she is. I also love how howl sets aside his pessimism to give his family and sopie a safe life. Absolutely love both of them❤
I have been a fan of Spirited Away for years now but never was interested in watching Howl's Moving Castle. Last night it came to my memory and I decided to watch it on a whim. Oh my goodness! I should've watched this film years ago! It's so beautiful and the story is awesome. Definitely a new favorite!
top 3 fav movies
1- howls moving castle
2-ponyo
3-spirited away
Yassss!
Simply a Fish
I grew up with those movies
One of my Best memories ever
They were like shiny sparkles to me
Oh my gosh sameeeeee
Wow that's the three movies I'm buying right now I guess I made the right choice
oml spirited away is sooo good
Still can't explain why I have chills everytime I hear this music. So in love with this story
I watched this 3 times in a row last week. Like 3 consecutive days. It is so beautiful, I don't care how fancy technology gets, nothing matches the genius and quality of Studio Ghibli. And of all of the productions, THIS is my favorite. I remember seeing this when it first hit the small screen, and I had tuned in part way through. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen any Studio Ghibli film from the beginning, the first time I come across one. I think I was only 5-6 minutes from the start of Spirited Away, and I still haven't seen all of Kiki's Delivery service.
Anyway, with this one, I didn't know the name of it, and I was so drawn to it, but the way they illustrated the Witch of the Waste, especially wither her head back so you just saw these cavernous nostrils, that stuck with me in my nightmares like no horror movie ever had. Everyone says the flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz are the worst, scariest, but the way they illustrate an old woman sleeping as having nostrils about ten feet tall gave me the creeps.
It was years later when I finally learned the name of it by accident, on a special about Hayao Miyazaki that I finally learned the name, and I've seen it many times since. What is not to love about this . . .movie? It seems trite to call it a cartoon. Animated retelling of Diana Wynne-Jones' work. I am now 51 years old. I feel and look like the cursed Sophia far more now. I didn't know how good I had life back in 2004 when this came out. Every time I see this, I cry. It's silly, I know. It's not like it's a shocker, but I cannot help it, it's a beautiful story. And sad. And lovely. It's the same with favorite books and movies. Sometimes something resonates so strongly, you cannot help but keep going back to it, like a group of old friends, and I can still laugh out loud at a Terry Pratchett novel, or cry -ugly cry- Every time I see Emma Thompson's character trying desperately to pull herself together in Love Actually -- listening to Joni Mitchell, and watching a woman realize everything you realize the moment you learn you've been betrayed by the one person you loved most in the world. But it's Christmas eve and the kids ae waiting so she gives herself a minute to crumple with pain and loss, before pulling it together. It kills me every time.
Come on....We all had a crush on Howl when we were little...or am I the only one??
Yes but not just when we were little 😂
Me even now still crush on him
I'm 20 now and I still have a crush on Howl 😂
@@chillichillin4108 same XD
I'm 23. Watched the show when it first came out and I loved Howl then, AND I still love him now. Even more than my boyfriend perhaps. 🤣
It sounds so weird in English, i'm used to it being Japanese
+Strawberry Cheesecake I have only seen it being finnish so it sound funny to me to :D
But Christain Bale man
I'm way too used to it in English to switch to Japanese xDD
Because I discovered it through Cartoon Network :,)
iBeFloe i like both but I say Dub is so much better lol
Ikr, I usually watch studio ghibli films with subs, but HMC sounds way better dubbed imo :>
This was the first Ghibli Studio movie I saw as a kid and it still stands as one of my few favorite Miyasaki movies
I’m 16 and this movie is probably the earliest memory I have and I just came across this but it’s always stuck with me in the back of my mind
oh god i just LOOOOOOVEEEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!
i think i've watched it for like, 10 times.....
Then u shud definitely read the book ! The book explains the plot better IMO :)
Sarah Wong i cant find it........i live in malaysia n all the good books r not sold here
T.T
LOL its actually sold in Popular, (not sure about other bookstores tho) Howls Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones, under the teen fiction section !
Sarah Wong really?
popular in which mall?:o
which state/city are you in? cuz Im in Selangor :D
He does not set her free she sets him free. Typical Disney to get that wrong. It is always the guy who is the hero. Gods forbid a woman can be the hero without dressing like a guy.
Ok boomer
stfu lmao
Stfu lmao
No one cares
Lol what
Saw this trailer as a kid and spent a good portion of my childhood thinking that walking castle was a fever dream I had.
just watched howl's moving castle today and it was truly magical
This should of won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature of 2005.
I know right Stupid Wallace and grommit
+TheSodorFilms This also should of won the Annie Award for Best Animated Feature of 2005.
+HaYz CyRoGe I actually love both movies but I also think Howl's is a bit better.
I wish i was back in primary to watch these again
Hi
You can still watch them today lol
You can watch this online right you know ?I am watching it right now.
Hi
Leah Schick finished the movie. I didn't like it much :(
I can't believe I avoid this movie for a long time like I wasn't expecting a wonderful animation and story plsss I was so wrong
I ended up crying and I dunno why, it was amazing
SAME 😭😭😭
Dude I have seen this trailer when I was so little I thought I had only saw this in a dream. I couldn't find the this movie at all for two decades and gave up on looking for it. Now I finally found it by pure chance. 😅
dang....Howl is so fineeeeee. I'm falling in love xD xD
Pooeey, he's mine!
Yesss 😍😍🥰
This is what determined my taste in men, why am I just now realizing this when the main character was my first (animated) crush...
If you determine your taste in men from movies you're gonna have a hard time finding one
Bob Plan Der Linde bruh this was my first crush let me live
I have a thing for blonde guys with blue eyes and I just realized it now--
Howl, Yurio, Togami, Alois, Kenma--
WTF
@@hugnboba this legit made me laugh. Thanks.
And yes. The people, characters, etc we r arround that we look up to kinda end up being a typecast for our tastes in future.
Our preferences subconsciously start creating patterns to look for in people later on in life.
Its pretty cool but i dont know how accurate that statement was lmao. Dont sue me if science calls my bluff. Lmao
@@bobplanderlinde329
thata true
men and women nowadays will have high standards because of Koreans (girls) and anime girls (guys)
😂😂
The animation is so good, the story is so good EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD. OMG I DIDN'T REGRET WATCHING THIS MOVIE! I WILL TREASURE THIS MEMORY IN MY LIFE!!😭😭
I remember watching this with my grandmother. I was too young to understand it but I have faint memories of this movie. I’m glad I rediscovered it
Walt Disney Studios presents a film Walt Disney Studios would have never produced...
Period 💅🏼
Nevertheless, Disney did produce the (original) Lion King, which I consider to be the best cartoon ever. Studio Ghibli has produced wonderful, imaginative works but I prefer Disney at its best. This is not just a personal opinion: IMDb has Howl's Moving Castle at 8.2 and The Lion King at 8.5.
@@minsapint8007 lmao stfu just because you think lion king is better does not mean everybody has the same opinion, and IMDb is not reliable enough because they have a bias towards western films and what are considered classics.
Disney has great films but they are still a company that kills creativity in film.
@@jaz9552 they did the dub, it’s not like they’re not giving credit at all. Y’all so sensitive and toxic.
@@Ikinsyntheticpeople Loooool calm tf down.
I watch this in 2007 and I was 6 I had never watch anime before and this took my breath away but the black creature scared me XD I watch it again today and it had been 9 years! sure got some memory's from this
I remember watching this on Cartoon Network
Alex Corona it was on cartoon network!
Alex Corona oh and I saw that today hunter x hunter comeing on cartoon network channel!! its so cool.
this is basically anime but more disney feel
happy face IS THAT 707? OMGGG 😍😍😍😍😍 my angel 💓
every ghibli movie i watched is soo beautiful.
spirited away was my childhood and now im an adult trying to watch their other films :)
I've been listening to a lot of peaceful music, and this is by far the most amazing piece. It instantly took my spirit flying over beautiful oceans and mountains. Thank you for creating this sheer peace itself !!
0:35 I will never get over how the guy's coat never comes off he doesn't wear it properly and he's flying for pete's sake lol
That's Howl right?
Well, he is a wizard...
ALIENS!
+Jea Rival I think that the coat is fastened to the shirt because it has never seen separated
well, you better never watch One Piece if you have a problem with coats hanging from the shoulders xD
+MrKlausbaudelaire with the marines and captains coats hanging off their backs 😂
this is the best animated film andit will stick in my heart forever. its aesthetic, atmosphere, characters, everything is so perfect. So many secretly hiding meaning of things like howl's heart. wish i haven't discovered this yet until now. couldn't find any film like this. love all ghibli's though
go & watch kimi no na wa totally woth
kimi no na wa is not available in dub yet. Please tell if its available in HD
Twinkling star Does it really HAVE to be dubbed?
Good films deserve good dub.
I want to live in that world of majesty and love, that is filled with music and colors and breathtaking landscapes. Living with Howl sounds pretty cool, especially in that moving castle.
My friend absolutely feel in love with this film the first time she watched it and never stops talking about it
I’m in love with Howl! where are you Howl ? Take me with you ! 😭
I don’t want to live in this ordinary world after watching the movie !
Lmaoo😂😂
Where are you howl? So lost under the sea under the sea in fading..........
I had to do that ........I'm glad this one doesn't exist the mayhem I liked the film a lot though
Scorpio warrior what’s so funny? 😂
@@sumaiyaafroze7846 haha cuz it's show that you really have a crush on him?
I can't stop watching the movie...!!
+Natsuki Hisa Cosplayer With me happen the same :D I really like this movie, also the book
One of my favs! Beautiful story and phenomenal voice actresses and actors
Amazing new worlds, mysteries and magic. Another masterpiece.
This trailer is great, but it doesn't represent the movie enough.
The movie itself is a literal master piece.
I've keep watching this for almost 3 years and I still cry at the ending. So in love with Howl! I want part 2 PLEASE!
Are you still alive
@@kashodiaz7366 yo 1 day ago comment
Thank you for featuring my song in this lovely mix!
Since I was 7...This still gives me the "chills".....It's beautiful.
This is my favourite movie

Can you suggest similar movies like this
+prashanth yadav
Basically every Hayao Miyazai movie is worth watching, and although they are not all similar most have a similar theme and feel. You should try spirited away, and princess Mononoke but I recommend watching most of Hayao Miyakazi's work because I haven't come upon even one of his movies that I disliked.
I watсhеd Hоwl's MMМMоving Castlе full mоviе hеeerе twitter.com/c8eb3d4a2c1e7ac70/status/795842576741826560 Hоwl s MMоving Cаstlеее Offiсiаааl Trаilеr
Miyazaki's '' Whisper of heart is also a good one you won't find more similarity in subject than this. Makoto shinkai has also made extremely good anime movies on similar subjects. You must watch some of those.
I think it's Christian Bale's voice acting that makes Howl all the more a lovable character
So I recently started working at a movie theater and I get employee movie tickets and right now we're doing a studio Ghibli film Marathon. I'm going to see this tomorrow since I have the day off plus I've never seen this movie and I'm excited 😁
Did you love it? 😁 I just started getting into Ghibli films as well! Better late than never!
@@nicoleann0703 I got out of the movie theater and just sat in my car fascinated at how good the movie was. I loved the animation, the story, and the purpose of it. Exactly! Better late than never 👍
@@SuperHops oh my gosh same! This is easily one of my favorite movies now along with When Marnie was there. Throughout this movie I was laughing so much it was so sweet and funny. Glad you liked it! 👍
@@nicoleann0703 It was the first time I ever had any connection towards a movie. It was "good vibes" type of movie and I'm excited to see spirited away when they play it at my theater on my day off 😄
I watched this movie yesterday and the amount of satisfaction it gave me is indescribable ....
