I like how in nearly all of Hyao Myazakis films, there are never just straight up good guys or bad guys in his films. The characters are realistic and even good people are shown to have flaws and are capable wrongdoings, while antagonists can also have some redeemable qualities to them, even showing compassion for others at times.

Also the female protagonists in Studio ghibli are portrayed as hard working, self-sufficient, and indepent individuals who are willing to fight for what they believe in. Hyao Myazaki once stated that "He has noticed that most women in media especially disney are portrayed a weak, frail, and dependent on a big strong prince to solve their problems... While girls in his films will need a friend as well as support, but never a savior. A woman can be just as much of a hero as any man."
