i love studio ghibli films (formerly the "no anime" thread)

[OssieTheOstrich]

Saw Whisper of the Heart yesterday and I really enjoyed it.

It was a lot more emotional than Porco Rosso, but it also had it's share of humorous moments. I also really enjoyed it's lesson regarding pushing oneself to do better, the scene where Shizuku sang Country Roads while Seiji, his grandfather and his associates were playing music, and especially the whole "hidden gems and polishing them" scene.

Good film, don't have anything else to say about it.

List of projects I eventually plan to finish after the indefinite hiatus is over, assuming I don't abruptly cancel them:

Spoiler

Mario's Rather Unusual Trilogy (Mario's slightly unusual Boss Rush (Completed), Mario vs. Some Unusual Foes (In development), Mario's VERY Unusual Final Frontier (In development))
Sonic's Foray into Random/Unusual Zones (spin-off of Unusual Trilogy, in development)
Angry Birds Slingshot Frenzy (In development)
Super Mario Flashback: Really Good Edition (In development)
Super Hilda DX (In only conceptual phase)

Yes, I am aware that I have about 6 or so fangame projects currently in development at the same time. And yes, I am also aware that all of this is very ambitious.

+ List of projects I'm helping out with in some small capacity during my hiatus:

Spoiler

Super Mario Bros Dimensions 2 (as a spriter, only for Mario's sprites)
MFGG Community Fangame Project 3 (as a spriter)
WordGirl ReWired (as a artist)
