| An extremely fun, beautiful, and well animated movie |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| This anime is full of moe!! and I loved it! there are some moments that so hilarious like when the water in the sea is higher than their house but they did not frighten, Lisa still drive to their house even if it is super dangerous! Ponyo as a fish then became human and then they still think that it is normal! hahaha they didn't shock when they know that Ponyo is a goldfish.. And i cringe on Lisa and her husband moment, flashing words using the light (i don't know what they are called).. I love it all! so many hilarious moment but still I love it! my favorite movie of Studio Ghibli :) |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| This movie is so precious! And Sousuke, and Ponyo are so cute! It will just warm your heart, and make you love it. |
 |
| Hmm the very last scene was a bit abrupt but overall I really liked it. The animation was top-notch, characters were very nice esp. Sousuke, Koichi and Lisa. Ponyo was very cute, too. High-quality Ghibli work. |
| Always makes me happy + Ponyo's moody attitude LOL  |
| What a wonderful movie, music and animation was great. And the story was just all around wholesome. I really like how there really was no villain, and it was just pure fun and wholesomeness. |
 |
| Well what can I say, this is definitely most children targeted Ghibli film out there. Of course I found it being very good, animation and music are top top level as always expected. The story might have a little flaws and feel flat in certain places but overall it is very nostalgic and memorable expierence that is worth rewatching some time later in life. This still is great film for children that actually has a lot to offer. 8.3/10 is my score for this |
| I liked ponyo more in fish form lol But it was a nice movie nothing much brainteaking just simply watch n enjoy stuff xD |
 |
| I absolutely loved this movie, probably one of my favorite Ghibli movie now, I love everything about it to be honest 9/10 |
 |
| It was pretty enjoyable. |
 |
| I am pretty damn sure, that every human character has died in the tsunami..... |
| I suppose it's not for everyone. The animation is the best thing about the movie, very cute. ^-^ |
 |
| So cute and wholesome! I fucking love Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli! |
| Studio Ghibli sets the bar so high but they still manage to outdo themselves in each movie. Ghibli movies are literally visual and auditory therapy lmao, best scenes and best soundtracks. Ngl the music feels like hearing a play or smth. Great comfort movie. |
| Joe, Joe Forever.... |
| Though i wanted to like this movie i just couldnt. For some reason i didnt like Ponyo and Sousuke. The movie did have nice visuals though and some nice scenes. 3/10 |

| In my quest to watch all the big Ghibli movies, this is one of the last couple I had yet to watch until today. I remember it being advertised A LOT on Disney Channel when it was dubbed, before I started watching anime, but a little late for me to really be interested in watching it. However, I had an itch to check it out. Movie was alright overall, I wasn't exactly excited or gushing over the plot or the characters or anything. It's biggest positive was the animation, specifically the shots of the underwater sections near the end of the film, like the front yard being underwater and the mountain road being underwater. Those shots were beautiful. The bitter old lady trying to swim in the senior center surrounded by the jellyfish got me to laugh out loud. Lisa was the best character, very calm in the face of danger, almost to a fault (her driving is NUTS with her kid in there!), but without a doubt a great mom figure for Sousuke and Ponyo. I think the film kind of falls on the lowest ends of Ghibli films that I enjoyed, close to Totoro. Not a bad movie by any means, I still enjoyed it, but Ghibli has better movies out there. |
| that might actually be the highest effort animation ever, maybe even higher than Redline. the art detail itself was lesser but still, pure visual bliss, and just a just simple charming feel good movie throughout. |
| What a beautiful movie! Big emphasis on pollution at the start. For a while I was very afraid that the movie was leaning towards Lisa being dead ... The movie has a lot of similarities to the Little Mermaid story but did a lot to differentiate from it. Visually it was an amazing treat, most memorable to me was Ponyo running on the waves. |
 |
| It's a really cute movie, one of my childhood favorites. |
