One of my favorite Anime studios – Studio Ghibli has been somewhat off incomplete in my shelfs. But finally i received the missing films and i could fill the holes and exchange some that i had not in the “collection” release with the ones in it. Now i do hope that Ponyo will be released in the same collection and not with a lot of Disney crap on it…

The other 3 films i ordered were:

- The Little Norse Prince
- The Castle of Cagliostro
- Nausicaä – The Valley of the Wind
- The Cat Returns
- Porco Rosso
- Pom Poko
- Kiki’s Delivery Service
- Laputa – Castle in the Sky
- Howl’s Moving Castle
- Princess Mononoke
- My Neighbour Totoro
- Grave of the Fireflies
- Whisper of the Heart
- My Neighbours the Yamadas
- Spirited Away
- Only Yesterday
- Tales from Earthsea
Following film are preordered for its release:
- Ocean Waves
As you probably can guess from this is that i am very fond of Anime and to underline that statement even further i will link to my “Anime i have watched” list at MyAnimeList: LINK

I got Ocean Waves and Ponyo in my collection, I am asking for Arrietty every time I am at my importer. The Disney version is probably already out, but I want the Optimum (Studio Ghibli Collection) one with the number (18 I guess).

Where did you order your collection from? Are they English dub?

I usually buy these from my local importer (Outland) here in Norway.
The Optimum releases (The Studio Ghibli Collection) has both English and the original Japanese audio tracks (with English subs)
Amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, play.com and many other websites carry these. Try search for one and one title, or on sites as play.com you could just search for “Studio Ghibli Collection”.
However you should look at the pictures and make sure the line on top of the pictures are silver and not red. The red is the Disney release, the Silver is the Optimum collection releases with numbered backs. if no colored line is present it is probably an release from before Disney made Ghibli part of their studios.
