We Don't Need A Hero - Studio Ghibli collage

Published:

Description

A collage of the Studio Ghibli girls, all of them in my favourite/stronges moments of theirs. You probably noticed I included Kushana and Lady Eboshi - despite the fact that they are both "villains". Well, they aren't villains in the versions I've posted of them. I used the Manga version of Kushana, who is way better than the movie version. And Lady Eboshi is not a villain. I think we covered that the moment you saw the movie. And besides - they both kick ass anyway.

The Studio Ghibli females - be they "villains" or heroines - are amazingly powerful. Much more powerful than your stereotype princess from Disney. These chicks don't need no prince to come and save them - for the most part, these "princesses" saved themselves, what they care about, and their "princes" (who in most cases weren't princes at all). And from Nausicaa and San's part, saved the lives of their enemies.

 I'm not saying that Studio Ghibli is better than Disney, but you have to admit - a lot of Disney princesses are kinda wimps. Not all of them, but a lot of them. The heroines, however, (Kida, Esmeralda, Meg, Pocahontas, Mulan, etc...) are a different story. 

And I realize I didn't put Ponyo or Umi (From Up On Poppy Hill) in the picture. I didn't put Ponyo in.... just because. And no Umi because I couldn't find any good pictures of her alone. All of them were too small! :( (Sad)


In case you couldn't read the quote in the center:

"Many of my movies have strong female leads–brave, self-sufficient girls that don’t think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They’ll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a savior." - Hayao Miyazaki


The quotes from the movies:

Sheeta (Laputa: Castle in the Sky): The World cannot live without love.

Therru (Tales from Earthsea): When will I ever find a way to speak my heart? To someone who knows what it is to be alone?

Nausicaa quotes:

Kushana: I have witnessed your end! I shall wreak revenge upon those who squandered the lives of the emperor's finest and left them to die like dogs!WATCH YE FROM THE HALLS OF VALHALLA ABOVE THAT I KEEP MY WORD!

And that one shall come to you, garbed in a raiment of blue, descending upon a field of gold...



I do not own any of these amazing movies, the screencaps, or the quotes that they are saying. :iconstudioghibli:
