Quote by maplerose The style of the characters are not all that 'pretty' (ie with flowing, flawless hair and big eyes), but it suits the the context of the movie and fits the characters' roles and personalities - comical characters have comical appearances, Howl's pretty-boy appearance goes along with his vanity, and Sophie's plain appearance contributes to her feelings that she wasn't anything special.

perfectly said, maplerose-san i agree - it definitely suits the storyline

haha, i love Howl's 'vain-as-a-peacock' - appearance in the movie - the epitome of a playboy <3

i need to watch the english dub! i meant to ever since i saw the preview on tv -

quote - Howl: 'What's the point of living if i cant be beautiful?! *sob*

Ahem. end of my speech here
