About This Quiz

Studio Ghibli has been making some of the best animated movies ever since all the way back in 1985. Under the direction of the incredible Hayao Miyazaki, this little Japanese production house doesn't just make cartoons; they make moving works of art that are colorful and alive. The worlds within them are rich and detailed, while the characters are sympathetic and wondrous. Nearly every single one of the studio's films has been met with critical and audience acclaim. From "Spirited Away" to "Ponyo" to "My Neighbor Totoro," Ghibli can do what few other studios have been able to do in terms of making you feel for the characters. You sympathize with the bravery of Porco Rosso, a pig who's a pilot. You feel for Moro, a wolf who raised a girl like her own cub. You grow with Chihiro as she grows and matures. It's pretty amazing stuff. 

If you've fallen in love with the work of Studio Ghibli, you probably have a favorite character, but do you know which one really matches up with who you are on the inside? Which one speaks to your soul? Answer a few questions about yourself and find out for sure which character matches up with your soul.
