A Rainbow of Animated Movie Characters (Part 2)

I’ve decided to do another one of these. This one features a few Studio Ghibli characters (although, I should note that I haven’t seen a single Studio Ghibli film, outside of the Nostalgia Critic’s review of Ponyo). I’ve made a third one of these, so don’t be disappointed that this one doesn’t feature as many characters as the first one.

On a side note, it's odd how some actors haven't done as many animated films as others. Like, Will Smith hasn't been in an animated film since Shark Tale, and the only voice work his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, has done are the Madagascar films. I guess some actors just enjoy doing animated movies better than others. Anyway, let's get started!
