1. I heard two or more ghibli films (like howl's moving castle) have way less silence in the English BGM than in the Japo one, because they were advised that Americans wouldn't be as ok with silent scenes. Reminds me of Falcouner inserting loud music into a bunch of DBZ scenes for which Toei/Kikuchi had chosen silence or quiet music.

2. You like these in general? I've actually only seen Grave of the Fireflies in 2011-12 (directed by Isao Takahata. I didn't think it was all that) and some of English Princess Mononoke (directed by Miyazaki. Some kid called Gabriel brought it to school but we skipped parts).

3. Do you have any thoughts or preferences regarding the differences between the works of the studio's directors, Miyazaki and Takahata?

4. Do you recommend any, and why?
