For me it would be Princess Mononoke, which is also one of my favorite films, period. I really appreciate the maturity and nuance it brings to it's environmental themes, which have been done in many other films, but not as well.

not exactly ghibli but i love nausicaä of the valley of the wind. one of my favorite movies in general. it has my favorite take on the environmentalist thread that so many miyazaki movies have, and the world building is a favorite of mine in anime, with so much more to offer in the manga. not to mention out of all the miyazaki flying contraptions, nausicaä's glider is definitely the coolest.

I have the box set (the books) and they are fantastic. Highly recommend picking them up if you like Nausicaa.

oh i've eyeballed picking up the physical box set before, the full page colors look great and it looks fantastic on a shelf. grabing that is definitely something i'll do even if it's only to have on display 😅

They aren't full page colour but they still look fantastic. I started colouring mine in a little based off the movie.
