honestly, sophie from howl's moving castle - the book is so god damn iconic it's not even funny. she's got the magic talent to speak life into things and make them come true and she [checks notes] makes a scarecrow really really fast, a walking stick that beats up one specific woman(?), a suit that makes the guy she's reluctantly crushing on absolutely irresistible to girls (it fails, both because she's deeply jealous of these girls and because every single one of them is somehow exploiting howl for their own gain), an everything-weed killer (everything is a weed if you're angry enough), and a sprinkle of cyenne pepper that helps a random guy cheat in a duel by making his opponent sneeze, who then sues the random guy because he cheated in the duel

[sirnoblesquid]

And then he would run for his life, because Sophie saw the whole conversation

I’m absolutely in love with the difference between movie howl and book howl (came home drunk, barely made it up the stairs, missed the door and then fell of a bed)

Bonus: the glasses were later confiscated because Howl tried to pull this move on Sophie

[shebsart]

another fun part about hmc is he could combine clothes from whatever time period and it could pass as weird wizard fashion

him being from modern times and liking to change his appearance is such a gift to me as a fanartist i have so much fun drawing his clothes and different hair colors and styles

[lilaccatholic]

A very underrated book hmc moment occurs when Howl sees Sophie's non-cursed hair for the first time and is like "WHAT is THAT" and she's like "it's NATURAL unlike YOURS"

[newt-kazoot]

Sophie again!! Working on something fun :) hopefully I’ll have more updates later

[phoenixkaptain]

Currently obsessing over Howl's Moving Castle and I just love the characters??? Especially in the book.

Howl: "I don't like arguing."

Also Howl: literally marries the one person who always draws him into arguments

And then there's

Sophie: "I'm content living a boring life."

Also Sophie: literally marries an isekai protagonist

The two of them arguing is just so. Romance. The fact that Howl fell in love with a ninety-year-old woman? Peak. Like, yeah, he suspected who she was, but he still fell for her while she was ninety. Something about a man who always looked at people for their beauty suddenly falling in love with someone's personality. I love that trope, but especially here, where Sophie's personality includes a being nosy, cleaning too much, messing up his spaces, and managing to ruin his suits. Twice over. He fell in love with that.

That's just. Amazing? And it's written very well. The movie is just breathtaking and the book is just perfect. No notes. Everything is wonderful. Especially:

Howl screaming so loud the entire town hears it and worries it's a bad omen.

Sophie basically cursing hats and clothes.

Sophie and Howl and the poor spiders.

Michael's "Is he dead?"

Howl shrinking into a tinier cat to look more pathetic.

Sophie throwing weed killer at him.

Howl: "You have to leave because you're scaring Sophie. And also me."

Calcifer and his little fire arms.

The dog who is very joyful about Howl's presumed death.

"Normally I would never bite a fellow countryman."

WELSH RUGBY

If you haven't read the book, you're doing yourself a disservice. It's really quite entertaining.

I think it would be infinitely funny if there was a prequel isekai anime adaption to howls moving castle. Because most this shit you wouldn't know from the movies, and so you'd see this welsh guy get isekai'd and then start doing crazy magic and it's only after a certain point that people would stop going "oh haha howls moving castle reference" to going "... Wait. Is this just straight up Howl himself"

[dharmaart]

More of my drawings in books, this time two sketches done in my copy of Howl's Moving Castle. It's one of my all time favourite books and I really recommend that people read it!

[goulloynes]

rereading howl's moving castle for the first time as an adult and on one hand i have so many questions about howl's phd. how did he get funding. who the hell agreed to be his supervisor. how did he get the university to agree to his topic. how did he defend his thesis. why does he have a phd at age 27 in the 1980s

on the other hand as someone currently doing a final year dissertation i really do understand howl slithering out of everything
