I think Laputa - Castle in the Sky will remain my all-time favorite and Princess Mononoke second.
Great artist. I truly believe "Only Yesterday" is one of the best movies ever made.
Studio Ghibli movies shaped my childhood and I loved them. (My parents didn't even realise they were Anime until later, they assumed it was from Disney because they were so well made) Spirited Away was a favorite family movie for a long time. I think Laputa - Castle in the Sky will remain my all-time favorite and Princess Mononoke second.
Takahata directed Grave of the Fireflies, Pompoko, my Neighbors the Yamada and others.
I'm assuming that a lot of people will be commenting about Grave of the Fireflies. It's a stunning movie, but I felt a much greater connection to My Neighbors The Yamadas. I found it to be such a delightful movie, full of small family moments. Very few actual crises, very few actual stakes, but so wonderfully realized. It's a great loss.
Kaguya hime no monogatari was a masterpiece.

Actually the movies you cite are all Miyazaki. Takahata directed Grave of the Fireflies, Pompoko, my Neighbors the Yamada and others.

Grave of the Fireflies is a movie I can't think of watching again. Extremely beautiful but also emotionally exhausting. I really enjoyed Only Yesterday. But I tend to like "slice of life" stuff.
