The son of a sailor, 5-year old Sosuke lives a quiet life on an oceanside cliff with his mother Lisa. One fateful day, he finds a beautiful goldfish trapped in a bottle on the beach and upon rescuing her, names her Ponyo. But she is no ordinary goldfish. The daughter of a masterful wizard and a sea goddess, Ponyo uses her father's magic to transform herself into a young girl and quickly falls in love with Sosuke, but the use of such powerful sorcery causes a dangerous imbalance in the world.

        This movie is so good!!! Except i like the mom the most because she is CRAZY! In 1 scene she was driving a car , and there was nothing wrong with it and then she just turned for no reason and fell down a bridge into water .

                  You will love this movie as much as I did especially if you have seen spirited away who is the same producer. The manga in this movie is amazing and Ponyo is adorable.

                      this is a really cute movie that is for all ages, although the main character is 5. it is a good zone out movie where you dont really have to pay attention to it to get it. one of the reasons that i liked it is because of the art. it is manga, and i love japaneese manga!
