I've been trying to carefully navigate this. Got her into Totoro when she was really young, like 20 months. Then a little after 2 we started watching Spirited Away. She loves them. I can't always control what she watches but I'm gonna do my best to imbue some of my tastes into her.
The main characters' age in Ghibli movies give you an idea of the minimum age of the audience... So Ponyo and Totoro are for young kids, Spirited Away isn't... Grave of the fireflies is the exception, no one is ever ready for that...
I watched Grave of the Fireflies and couldn't shake the feeling of "half the problems he's facing are his own fault, and his little sister is being dragged down with him"
Iirc it's based on a real experience, so that's probably true. I haven't seen it in forever, nor do I intend to, so I say probably because I don't recall all the nuance.
