With the end of Demon Slayer season 1 approaching, Adam and I will be watching a movie as a palate cleanser. Which one should we watch??

If you have a movie or series that you want to recommend, be sure to add it to the Google Sheet on Discord. It is the pinned message on the Anime channel!

Attack on Titan might be too much, but I’d really love to see you both watch the whole thing.

weezy

I love Nausicaa but it’s an intense movie and probably not one I’d recommend as a palette cleanser after demon slayer.

Sarah

They usually give details when movies and series are added but they didn’t for this one, so I put it down blind. Oops! Honestly, I’d watch it anyway!

Crimson

I want to recommend Dr Stone anime for Sarah after knowing she had degree in biochemistry.

Randy

Attack on Titan reactions are legendary , so many mind blowing moments, especially in the later seasons (but plenty of good ones early on too).

Azelis

I am biased because Howl's Moving Castle is my all-time favorite Ghibli movie. But... I haven't seen A Silent Voice yet so if it wins I will still be happy to watch it with you guys for the first time 😍

Azelis

Ohh this is a good one too!! I recommend!!

Jacob Garza

I didn't see Nausicaa until last year when it was in theaters and it honestly blew my sister and I away. When we walked out we didn't even know what to say. It's one of the best movies I've ever seen. I would highly suggest watching even if it's not on the channel. It is kinda intense though lol. Ghibli movies are in the theaters sometimes if it's on there I'd suggest that.(sorry this is so long)

steve crandall

Big fan of Howl’s moving castle - Nausicca is excellent, but very intense.

weezy

I mean, it’s a great movie so I’d watch y’all watching it anyways too!

MelanieRS

Nausicaa is a LOT. I love it, but it is just very abstract. I think A Silent Voice or Howls Moving Castle for sure

Smash Bran'Discootch

Didn't you guys already watch Your Name? If I'm remembering correctly then A Silent Voice for sure. That way you'll be halfway through the Emotional Gutpunch Quartet of A Silent Voice, Your Name, Weathering With You, and I Want To Eat Your Pancreas.

steve crandall

For Studio Ghibili intensity there's The Grave of the Fireflies. It's not from Miyazaki... intense and beautifully done, but it's a film I'm happy to have seen once, but will never watch again.

Neko Cat

Silent voice was my first anime movie that I watched…. ❤️❤️

piaa

A silent voice is my favorite movie😭 not even from anime, just overall. I love it so much💖

AnnaSama

Nausicaa is excellent, but it is long and intense. I think it's polling so low because it feels a little advanced for people who are relatively new to anime.

AnnaSama

If you want a true palate cleanser, may I recommend Ponyo. Howl's Moving Castle is my recommendation for this round, but consider Ponyo the next time you need a sweet refresh.

Jacob Garza

Totally get that, it's a wild time. Saw your ponyo comment and couldn't agree more lol

Shalini Paul

A silent voice is going to be A LOT, emotionally speaking. On the contrary, Howl’s moving castle is a refreshing change from the intense Demon slayer anime. So my choice would be Howl’s moving castle

Destiny Samuel

Just letting you know, a silent voice is a real tear jerker, so get those tissues ready

j conson

Howls cool! Just in case you could use a show recommendation for the future check out Ping Pong the animation, only 11 episodes, great sports anime. Or for a more intense and long anime but has the biggest audience on YT would be Attack on Titan.

Brian Wade

I know it will never win any polls but I will never back down on recommending "A Place Further than the Universe." It is such an inspirational, heartwarming, heartbreaking, wholesome anime but most anime fans don't even know it exists.

Ozmoes Meta

You should watch ‘I want to eat your pancreas’. As much as the title is weird, it’s not a scary movie or anything weird. Definitely prefer this movie or ‘Your Name’

Sylvia ZX

My Ghibli personal favorite will always be Nausicca, but I can already imagine your reactions watching the other two choices. Anyways, all of these movies are beautiful and you should totally watch them all.

Big T

I'd love to see it, too. Honestly, I think Sarah/Adam mash up on it would be so much fun, because it's quite a few steps up on brutality from Demon Slayer, and Sarah/Adam do such a great job on contrasting/complimenting each other on high action shows.

Big T

I voted for Howl's Moving Castle. lol Even if it doesn't win, I recommend watching the dub of it instead of the sub. I'm a real stickler - almost always prefer sub - but I recommend dub for that one, because it's set in a Western style country with Western names, etc. And they dubbed this movie back in the early 2000's, back during what I consider the golden age of dubbing (haven't seen many good dubs since then, though I'm sure I'll get protests otherwise lol).

CarOh

A silent voice is NOT a pallet cleanser😭 it’s beautiful but please be prepared if you watch it. Howl’s is my fav ghibli film and yes, watch it dubbed. People get confused because they miss the context provided by background convo. Not to mention, Christian Bale voices Howl and it’s heavenly

Linh Tran

A Silent Voice is gonna be the poll winner for this round, but it's definitely not a palate cleanser, so prepare your tissue at least. The content warnings that I put on the sheet for this movie are just generic ones.

Shalini Paul

I agree. That’s precisely why I voted for Howl’s moving castle. It would have been a refreshing change, but oh well!

Linh Tran

Yeah, I voted for Howl too, because it's the only one that can be considered palate cleanser out of this list.
