The only ghibli movie I ever watched is Spirited Way, stunning visuals and interesting story but kinda slow. Is that how they usually go?
Give Princess Mononoke and/or Howl's Moving Castle a shot. On average, Ghibli movies are slow-paced and mostly slice-of-life, but those two have more action in them.
Howls Moving Castle for whimsy, Princess Mononoke for nightmares.
I say this as a massive fan who grew up watching a couple of cool anime films that I later learned were Ghibli. I watched Princess Mononoke at like 25years old and there were a few “holy shit” moments.
