Howl's Moving Castle (personal Ghibli favorite) is now part of the ever-expanding 1 MILLION club in MAL. It's the club's 98th member, and it beats Princess Mononoke to the milestone first (which is actually not surprising).

I do love the film, and I think it is on par with Spirited Away from being the Best Ghibli Movie (but Howl is my fave). And I also love how the quality and the replay value of the film still persists to this day.

I agree, although Ponyo edges out Howl for my favourite Ghibli.

My personal favourite is Spiritied Away, but I love both of the ones above (Howl's Moving Castle more though)
Glad it got to 1mil

I don't find it to be Miasaki's finest entry myself but still a well deserved club for it to join. I wonder who number 100 will be😅😅.

It’s not one of my favourite Ghibli films but it was ok. Neither was Spirited Away.

Worth it. Howls Moving Castle is a fantastic Ghibli movie. Albeit mostly for kids but fantastic and enjoyable nonetheless. It deserves the 1 MIL mark.

Yeah it is a very good movie of Studio Ghibli but I have just seen this movie and Totoro.

If I'm being honest, I think this one is the worst by far of the ones I've seen. The world building is incredibly incomplete, the romance is extremely rushed, and the whole thing is extremely chaotic and a lot of stuff goes completely unexplained. I guess it is a kids movie though, they don't care about that. I'm really surprised this is the third highest rated, beating Laputa and Nausicaa.
