Can we talk about how decidedly leftist a lot of Studio Ghibli movies are? About how Nausicaa, Princess Mononoke, and Castle in the Sky are confrontationally environmentalist in nature? How Castle in the Sky is anti-colonialist/anti-imperialist? How it says government is to be trusted even less than thieves? How Howl's Moving Castle is blatantly antiwar? To the point that it stops caring about being an accurate adaptation of its source material altogether to go do its own thing? How their movies tend to focus on extremely brave, heroic, and tough young women that are more than a match for any man, at any age?

When we talk about Ghibli, we tend to rightly focus on their relation to children's stories and fairy tales, their intense focus on showing different kinds of love (between families, between friends, and providing powerful examples of HEALTHY young romances that are based in mutual strength, mutual trust, and mutual growth without a lot of overt eroticism. Romances that show the depth of love without even needing a kiss), and about their power as coming-of-age stories and how they show both the wonder and fear of transitioning from a child to an adult. But it seems to me that, while mentioned, the antiwar, pro-environment, pro-feminist nature of their works gets largely glossed over.
