Tigerlily Gamgee, I'm so glad you liked Spirited Away! Two of Miyazaki's other movies, Kiki's Delivery Service and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, are my absolute favorites! <P>I tend to like animated fantasy better than live action, just because they don't have to worry about bad special effects. Shrek and Monsters Inc were fun. Anime fantasies like the Escaflowne TV series, Heroic Legend of Arislan and Rurouni Kenshin really made me sit up and pay attention because they were so different from the Western-style of fantasy I was used to.<P>Some anime staples (floating bubbles and petals) have been used in other films like Excalibur and Legend, so if you liked that, you should love shoujo anime.<P>-Lily
