I can Hear the Sea,
A TV movie from Studio Ghibli (Miyazaki, Takahata.) A slow all-too serious tale of high-school love, nicely drawn.
Famous Detective Holmes [a/k/a Sherlock Hound],
Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind,
Miyazaki's most popular film- a sort of post-apocalypse mystic eco-fantasy, more notable for plot, character, music and designs than the smoothness of animation. Excellent Jo Hisaishi soundtrack, too. Based on the comic (manga) of the same title.

Laputa - Castle in the Sky,
A great fast-moving action adventure. Two kids flee pirates, the army, and other parties in a race to find the legendary Laputa. Great soundtrack, too.

My Neighbor Totoro,
Miyazaki's most gentle film is about two kids who meet an odd-looking forest-spirit (Totoro) in their new rural neighborhood. In part a celebration of Japan's countryside, with a touch of pure magic.

Kiki's Delivery Service,
A story for kids of all ages, about a 13-year-old witch who sets out to make her way in the world. Lavishly animated.

Omoide Poroporo (Only Yesterday),
Contemporary sentimental drama about a yuppie Japanese woman looking back at her youth and life-choices, brilliantly animated by Miyazaki pro Isao Takahata. Talky, actionless, and stunningly beautiful.
Porco Rosso (The Crimson Pig),
A light-hearted but mature and sentimental film set in the 1920 Italian Adriatic, as a valiant pilot (who happens to be a pig) fights air pirates for his honor and for his lady. Top notch animation.

Mononoke-Hime (The Monster Princess),
A Japanese variation of Beauty and the Beast. 1996?
