Princess Mononoke. Spirited Away. Howl’s Moving Castle. When it comes to ranking the best of Studio Ghibli’s films, Ghibli stans are generally in agreement about the creme of the crop. But what about the lesser known entries? The red-headed step children that history forgot? While not all of Ghibli’s films were destined for cinematic glory, the studio is has put out a number of unpolished gems – and even an unsung masterpiece or two. Here they are, 10 the most underrated Studio Ghibli films of all time.
10. Tales From Earthsea
Tales From Earthsea doesn’t deserve that outright slander that it gets. The film often sits at the very bottom of “Studio Ghibli Films Ranked Worst To Best” lists across the internet, and was regarded by Studio Ghibli itself as an embarrassment to the studio’s reputation. The film is a loose adaptation of Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea Cycle, a gem of a fantasy series that is also bombastically underrated. A frequent criticism of Tales From Earthsea is that the plot doesn’t make sense, and to be fair, it doesn’t. It begins with a young prince killing his kingly father for absolutely no discernible reason and then throws him into cahoots with a wandering wizard on a quest to stop an evil necromancer from doing… evil stuff? Forget the plot, when it comes to vibe the film is unparalleled in its beauty. Just let the disjointed story wash over you and enjoy the jaw dropping depictions of dragons soaring through the air. After all, The Boy and The Heron made literally zero sense and everyone loved it.
