Another Ghibli film with a female protagonist, 2002's The Cat Returns

Sometimes I like to imagine that The Cat Returns could possibly even be the completed story that Shizuku has written, but apart from the reappearances of Muta and the Baron there is no real correlation between the two films in terms of story. Haru is another relatable character - shy, lacking confidence and her reaction to the situation she faces in this film is hilarious. I love a film with a sense of magic, and this is one of the wackiest, most fanciful adventures I've seen for a while! Returns is a lot of fun, and easy to enjoy.
