Princess submitted by SBNB on June 21, 2015, 9:55pm I enjoyed it quite a bit despite having to watch it over a few days. Good movie.

Studio Ghibli submitted by JY 2005 on August 27, 2018, 8:34pm Another classic Studio Ghibli film.

The Tale of the Princess Kaguya submitted by lstorc on July 28, 2019, 10:12pm The Tale of the Princess Kaguya has beautiful artwork, relatable characters, and an interesting premise. Strong recommendation

Third time's the charm submitted by Xris on August 16, 2020, 12:27am I watched this with my anime club at school, but we never finished it. Then yesterday, I tried watching it again, and fell asleep during it. So today I finally finished it. I'm glad I got to the other section of the movie that I hadn't seen....with the suitors and all. The animation is gorgeous! Maybe it was a bit slow once she goes to the capitol, and that's why I fell asleep. But even after that, I watched the bonus "Making of" video. Very interesting!
