Miyazaki Hayao's cartoons are widely circulated all over the world, which not only fascinates young audiences, but also attracts adult audiences. In the past, animation was mainly watched by children, and many stories were based on what happened around children. Miyazaki Hayao's animation theme is different from tradition. It combines elements such as environmental protection, life, survival and dreams, and the works are full of some profound meanings. Interestingly, most of the protagonists in Miyazaki Hayao's series are girls. So, why is Miyazaki Hayao so keen on girls? Besides, what are the characteristics of these girls? This paper mainly focuses on girls' works as the main characters.

1 Unique girl world

You will find many important female characters in Miyazaki Hayao's works. In addition, most of the female heroes in Miyazaki Hayao's works are girls. A little observation of these girls in Miyazaki Hayao's works can reveal their characteristics. Usually, the heroine in the movie is either gentle or enthusiastic or as inaccessible as ice. Most of them, the meaning of their existence in their works, usually just fall in love with the hero. Of course, the heroines in Miyazaki Hayao's works will also fall in love, but their existence is more than that. They are a group of smart and capable girls. They work hard, have dreams in their hearts and express themselves. They live freely, have their own troubles and grow up by themselves. It can be said that their world has broken through the narrow field of pure male-female relationship. As individuals, they have their own lives and live with dignity.

2 impressions of all kinds of girls

2. 1 naive and clever

You can see the girls described in Miyazaki Hayao's early works. There are many works that are pure, lovely and clever.

I think My Neighbor Totoro is the warmest cartoon in Miyazaki Hayao. My sister and father moved to the country together. Because dad has been visiting her sick mother in the hospital, the girls are only familiar with their new surroundings. My sister saw the chinchilla falling behind the house, and then saw the mysterious towering oak tree. There is a totoro with a big belly in the tree hole. I'm not afraid to meet my neighbor totoro sister, but also kindly call my neighbor totoro and chat leisurely. Although the language barrier does not affect the emotional communication at all. This is the courage brought by innocence! My sister met my neighbor totoro while waiting for my father at the station behind her back.

I'm a little sleepy. My sister's name is さつき and my sister's name is メィ, right? Hope to adopt!
