Ok first of all. Yes to your comment, that would be amazing. For now one can just try to escape into the howl world in their dreams. Maybe you can too :) Second, i adore your name, fellow bts fan hehe (the picture is gold as well, oh what a fine taste you have) i wish you all the happy dreams💕
I saw someone say this would be such a good song to take a midnight shower too in the comments a while ago and just tried it, 10/10 recommend especially if your lights are kinda dim
this song is the smell of the earliest morning hours. dancing around by yourself, in your softest clothes with the window open - you can smell the night air! and feel a cool breeze. there is peace in knowing you are the only one awake, with everything just to yourself. all the smells and goosebumps and savoring the stretch of your muscles and knowing your elegance is just for you.
every time i listen to anything related to howls moving castle I get so sad??? like it makes me realize how arbitrary and boring ordinary life is and how much i want to just be freeeeeeeee but i cant stop because i love howl so much :(((((((((((
callia, me too. People say shifting, but it’s not enough, i want to be there, truly in my physical body. I wish magic was real. This world is so tiring, sometimes i get excited at the idea of there being something ethreal after death just because of how sad and boring this world is.
You know that feeling when you resonate with something so deeply on a level you cant even begin to describe with words. This song is that for me. It just feels like a part of me, a truth that I'm unable to convey. A place that's pure happiness... I'm rambling.. wish all of you a good week.
That’s actually how I feel when I watch or listen to howls moving castle. I start crying when I know I can’t have it and I feel stuck. Like I’m missing something and this is it. This song makes me want to go there in all my power but I know I can’t, hence why I cry
Yeah I feel the same it’s like so magical that I can’t even express the feelings in words and for the 4 min of this song I feel completely in another world and I feel so relaxed...this song it’s just on another level Srry for my bad English
I came here to fall asleep but now I’m scrolling through all the comments and fangirling. Sweet dreams and endless fantasies definitely live here, though sleep has eluded me.
I agreed, guess comments section under movie Ghibli soundtrack are always so amazing and comfortable. For me, it's make me very happy know there are so many people who enjoy this song and eventualy falls asleep.
Short story: I play the piano, and it's near a couch. So every time my mom lays there, I play this for her. She often falls asleep. Guys please show your loved ones how much you love them and don't let them forget it. Nobody wants to feel regret when they lose someone.
I’m currently learning this on the piano and it’s so beautiful it’s one of my favourites as I often learn something and overplay it either while learning it or just over play it but this. I’ll never get over how beautiful it is
@@mikewazowksi7938 perhaps play something of her choice.. I know my brother would scream at me to stop until I played something he liked! He didnt complain after that lol XD
small reminder, you can have a ghibli life too ! wake up early and take time getting ready and making breakfast. or if you woke up late, stay up at night to study hard. if you have a job already, take note of your surroundings, there may be small things that beautiful yet hard to notice. go on walks for exercise and to take in nature. and after you finish your work, take a 30 minute break, watch your favorite show, anime, or read a book. if you look at it, it's really not that hard, live the life you dream of
Exactly! Journaling, having long walks (maybe taking your dog out and anything happening like your dog chasing a squirrel still fits the story idea 😂), creating things like art, anything can be turned into a Ghibli vibe or just better, it’s all on the perspective most often. Life is good man… and difficulties will always pass no matter how bad they are. One way or the other. But we still must face them with bravery and get out of them stronger than before. 😊❤
@@Peytur I have a lot of things like this in my room. Try searching for hippy/boho trinkets or Nepalese products are usually colourful like this. Lots of hanging things like camel charms etc I have. The stuff you see selling for at festivals
@@atirahyasim981 i feel you lol,my room is a mess and I don’t know if I should clean it or leave it like it is(the thing is,I keep tripping on stuff and hurting myself/breaking objects)
I’m such a baby I cry EVERY single time I hear this song it makes me feel so many emotions like I cannot explain it and the feeling idk what it is like idek
It's a joke, people are talking about their own heartbeat. There are a few people who are under the impression that there is audio of the heart beating but there isn't.
The joke is based on the story since (SPOILERS) Howl's heart is with Calcifer, therefore his body doesn't have a heartbeat. The fans are joking they can hear his "heartbeat" playing silently along with the music.
me, playing this song on my piano in the living room, knowing full well it's called "Howl's Moving Castle Theme" my family, who judge me for watching anime movies: wow this is beautiful what's it called? me: uhhh
@@isa-ip9wl Nah, my parents are racist, and hate anything Asian related, but they honestly don't care about Merry-Go-Round of life, it's a song, so they can't really hate it.
POV: gender neutral "I really am sorry about your hair." You said tentatively, standing in the doorway to Howl's room. It was a cluttered mess but you didn't dare clean it for fear of making him mad. Yet, you already had. Howl's eyes flickered over to meet yours. He sighed and looked up at the ceiling. "You know," You said, gaining a bit of courage, "I believe you to be stunning, even with your new hair color. It truly does suit you." You saw a small smile creep onto his lips, a red blush adorning his cheeks. "Thank you, love. Come lay with me, please?" He said everything so sweetly and carefully. If only you knew how much he loved you. You nodded and walked over to his bed as he turned on his side to give you more space. You climbed in next to him, smoothing your dress as he stared at you. "I think you're beautiful too." He whispered, convinced you wouldn't hear him. Your face immediately went red as you stumbled over your words, obviously flustered. "T-thank you, Howl." He hummed in reply as he placed on hand around your waist, trailing it up and down your spine, bringing you closer to him. You rested your hands on his warm chest, feeling safe. Something you hadn't felt in a long time. "Look at me..." He whispered gently, and you did. How could you not. He was breathtaking. "Good girl." He smiled softly and connected his lips to yours, startling you a bit, but you kissed him back nonetheless. His lips were soft and comforting. Your lips parted from one another as he leaned back to look at you. You smiled and so did he. Howl felt like home. Sorry it was so short! I really hope you enjoyed it! :D
Damn girl the part where he say "Good girl" got me so bad...🤧🤧🤧 Here I am trying to sleep yet when I read this pov I turned into a blushing mess and stuttering eventhou I know he ain't real 😩🤚😔Oh well I guess to the wattpad world we go to simp for him some more😔☺ ✨Thank you for the POV it really touch my heart🥺✨💖💖💖
My boyfriend and I love this movie so much! We often compare our relationship with that of Sophie’s and Howl’s. He even got me a music box that plays the first part of this theme for Valentines. ❤️ 🎶
words can’t describe how this song makes me feel. it’s a mix of both sadness and delight. it makes me feel like i’m dancing in a light flowy dress underneath the bright sky while my comfort character watches me with a small smile- but then i’d remember that he isn’t real, and it’d just make me feel sad and nostalgic over a memory that’s never been made.
sometimes i wish i’d lived in a world where i could just freely choose how to live, without the invisible chains of this one pulling me down. how magical would it be, to live in a world like that?
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. It's like I'm in a whimsical secret garden in a full moon night laid down in the grass looking up for the stars with the cold breeze of the night reminding me that I'm completely alone but not lonely
I told the stars about you I told the stars about you Your dangerous smile and moonlit eyes You told me you could give me the world, But all you left me was a sparkling, shimmering..stardust Your sun kissed skin, glows less You were my universe, but now you're a broken wish A fallen star with no remorse, with no meaning I told the stars about you and they told me, "Don't cry, there are millions of stars out there, you just have to find the one who shines brighter than the rest". No longer your one and only I am no longer your one and only, What happened? "I love you", That three word is still stuck in my head, I remember being the happiest person in the world hearing that coming from your mouth, I know there was a time where you truly loved me, The time where I was your one and only, But that was 4 years ago. I wish I could turn back time to our highschool days, Everybody loved you, yet you only had eyes for me, You studied hard so we could start a new life together. I gave up my friends and family all for you, All so we could live a happily ever-after, I've noticed whenever you talk to me, You'd always give me this look of joy, But that look for me had already faded years ago. The truth is, I've known since it first started, The lipstick marks on your collar, The scent of perfume which does not belong to either of us The strands of long hair found under the sofa. I knew it all, And yet I never brought it up, scared it would tear our relationship apart, The times when you'll leave home for days and even weeks for your "business trip", In those times I feel extremely lonely, I'd crawl up in a corner and cry, Even after all that, I still love you. Every night I'd pray for things to go back to the way it is, Because I always believed there is still hope for us, But it never did. I knew you liked flowers so I planted plenty in the garden and took care of it well everyday, Every Spring we’d go to the garden together and admire the flowers, I miss those days. Soon, I fell ill but didn't bother to tell you, "Its not like you'll care anyways", I'll only be a burden if I do. As I was walking across the road to the drug store, I thought, " If only I was still your one and only.." And in the blink of an eye, *honk honk*, *crash*, "Daily news report with a car crash incident which occurred earlier this evening..." It all ended just like that, I hope you'll treat her as your one and only from now on. Wilted flowers During Spring, The prettiest flowers in our garden would bloom, Roses, tulips, lilies, peonies and lavender's, All were taken care by my one and only, were. It happened one summer, That one fatal day where he left the world, He was hit by a car. I wasn't the best of all, If I'm being honest I don't deserve him, I am a man of lies. Behind his back I had another, I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, Anything, I could never forgive myself, I can't forgive how I never paid attention to him, I never noticed how much he was hurting while I was having fun out, "Appreciate your loved one while they are alive before it's too late" That sentence that I never really cared about became the sentence that's haunting me, I wish I could turn back time too, To when you are still alive, I'd want to change everything, To make you feel like you're my everything all over again, But it's already too late. This Spring, the flowers wilted, As so did my heart, I wish I could see the flowers bloom with you by my side one last time. We both loved each other We've had our ups and down's but we always end up forgiving one another, We've had multiple adventures and made lots of great memories together, It was clear of the affection that we both had for each other, We love each other. As where I am here today I remember, I used to think of our future, About how we could buy a house together, have a dog and even children of our own together, I'd think of that feeling of having an actual family together, Oh how wonderful! But then.. all that crashed when I snap back to reality, To the reality where the priest said " Will you take this woman as your beloved wife?" "Yes", he said, "Would you take this man to be your now husband?" "Yes," she said. "We loved each other.. so what went wrong?" I thought as I stand by his now wife, As they kiss happily, I though once again, "What went wrong..??" A single drop of tear rolled down onto my face, Even so I still smiled, Because i am happy for them.. I am happy for the man I once loved.
I'm listening to this while doing schoolwork and my cat just curled up on my lap and fell right asleep. Idk what kind of magic calmed my cat, who was just crazy, enough to sleep but I'm going to credit this video lol.
I’m going to start crying, I have such a close tie to Howl’s Moving Castle. This makes me feel so safe and warm you have no idea how much you have filled a void❣️
A nightmare. It was so painful that tears rolled down without realizing it. She could feel someone's warmth on her cold cheeks. Wiping away those sparkling liquid. The big hand rubbed her cheek lovingly. "Darling ?," a familiar voice can be heard. "Howl ?," she woke up quickly as soon as she recognised it. Hugging the man's body tightly with longing. After a long time out to carry out responsibilities, now the man is home. "Don't be afraid anymore, I'm here with you now," Howl said in a soft tone. "I love you," "Me too, now let's go to sleep," Howl laid the girl carefully and then slept next to her. Wrapped her with his arms as well as sending the warmth. While laying, Howl casted a spell with his hand moving gently. Suddenly a beautiful melody appeared just to send both of them to a dreamland. "Good night, my love," Howl whispered.
In totoro and in spirited away they have soot spirits/balls I can imagine Howl having soot balls under his bed (like the alive ones that he feeds the sugar star candy things to)
small pov because im sad while listening to this for the 50 millionth time XD you lay in his bed while the music box chimes its melody gently on the bedside table, your hair falling onto a pillow around you. a calm breeze was brushing against your face from somewhere unknown in the room, whilst it was cold it was welcoming and relaxing to you. it reminded you of the strange coldness of howls hands as he pushed your hair out of your face and behind your ear or when he held your face in such a loving way as you wish he was in this moment. your eyes finally flutter close as your breathing slows to a near halt and you fall into a peaceful slumber, the music box chimes continuing by dimming in loudness almost as if it knew you had fallen asleep finally .eventually you felt the mattress beside you dip and a soft humming start accompanying the music box. howl shifted his weight and laid down next to you, enveloping your half-asleep form in a hug placing a kiss on your forehead and rubbing small calming circles onto the base of your spine as he always does when you lay together like this. ----- dont know what else to add so this is it for now XD
listening to this? i could reminisce my past sitting on the floor with scattered photo books near the firepit, walk through the hallway of a castle filled with portrait paintings, silently roam barefoot around a victorian manor wearing a flowy white dress, stargaze through a large window while sipping tea with a cat and read dark academia literature
Please add some male breathing ins and outs, some moving in bed sounds to the audio and upload it here *-* I know I’m such an weirdo but I can listen that version forever!
I've had really bad anxiety today and been pretty depressed. Listening to this before bed and it is making me feel loads better and more relaxed. Thank you 😊
Dude same. I’ve been having a really crappy couple days and I stumbled upon this when I woke up and it comforted me so much. It’s like it’s saying “Don’t worry I’m here for you, it’ll all be okay.” And I’ve needed that for the last couple days.
i’ve been watching Howls Moving Castle for almost my whole life and this just makes me want to cry. it just feels so nostalgic .i feel so much at peace and calm. it’s like the whole world and all of its stress and fears that have been placed on me has been lifted. when i listen to it it seems like time has stoped. it makes you aware of all the little sounds, like your heart beat, and breathing. all of the notes just fit perfectly together and just... i can’t even. this song is definitely a gift from God himself.
Every time a hear this song it makes me wanna cry, it's not sadness, but something inside my heart makes me feel this way. This song resonates in my soul and I can feel it.
* deep breath * I would trade my heart anyday ... to be there in the castle... especially if howl was being there i would really like a hug form him...
[ pov - errors ahead | gender neutral ] You are slowly waking up, lying cozily on his bed. You have this question in your head as the, how did you end up sleeping on Howl's bed? You raised up from lying down, lightly rubbing your eyes to remove the sleepiness. You scanned the room but there's no Howl in sight. Until you remember what happened - You are kind of tired and now you're just reading a book from Howl's bookshelf. You let yourself get swallowed by the emotions of this particular scene you are reading, swallowed to the point you didn't hear Howl calling your name. "Y/N?" Howl peeked behind you, calling your name for the third time. You still didn't notice him and that made the long haired man sulk and crave more of your attention. You didn't notice anything, still absorbed to what you're reading. He sighed and slowly crept out behind you. He snaked his arms around your waist and leaned next to your ear. "Darling, I've been calling you for three times and you did not even spare me a glance" Well, now he has your attention. You can feel your face, neck, and ear heat up. His voice and breath just next to your ear made your heart flutter. He spoke again, "Would rather have your book...." He started, putting his chin on your shoulder. "Or me?" You can't help but grin. He's jealous now because of a book? Adorable. You patted his head that is resting on your shoulder. "I'm sorry my love, I got carried away by the story. I pick you over the book so what do you need? You said you called me three times" You asked. He buried his face on your neck, his breath fanning on your neck. "I'll be honest, I just want your attention" He said, creating a vibration on your neck, tickling you. You chuckled and stood up. You opened your arms and he gladly snooped you in a hug. You arms around his waist while his are on your shoulder. You two stayed like that for some time, slightly swaying. Your foreheads againts each other. Sneaking some little pecks on cheeks or any part of your face. "You always make my heart skip a beat, you know" He softly said, cupping your face with his hands. You smiled, "So do you" You feel happiness. It feels like you're in an infinite mass of euphoria everytime he's with you. You can't but to feel relaxed and content in his arms. "Your eyes are heavy. You feel sleepy, Precious?" You heard him said as your head is now leaning on his shoulder. You didn't hesitate to nod your head yes. Just being in his arms made you feel home after all. "Wrap your arms around my neck, Darling. I'll pick you up and put you to bed" He kissed your forehead when you complied to his order. You feel yourself being carried by Howl himself. Slowly dozing off as started his way to his room. You now have your eyes closed. You can faintly hear the door opening, you seemed to reach his room. You were to sleepy to properly examine everything. He laid you gently on his bed. He saw you already falling asleep so he wrapped the blanket on you. He can't surpress his smile. "I love you" He whispered the three words and kissed your forehead. He continued to admire you sleeping, not in a creepy way. You smiled remembering what happened. You're about to stand up and find him when the door opened and revealed the beautiful, long haired man. He's carrying a tray and walked toward you. You grinned, "Did you cooked for me?" He nodded his head and hesitantly showed the food. "It was- umm - almost burnt, Calcifer's at fault" He whined. You shooked it off and signalled him to eat with you. That was his plan after all, to eat with you as soon as you wake up from your nap. "Did you have a good nap?" He asked, tucking your hair backwards so it won't block your eyes. You nodded at him, smiling, as you both enjoy the meal. The conversation flows nicely and there goes the day with Howl. Living the life of loving someone, containing happiness and sweetness, you are content to be with him. :)))) ps. was supposed to be longer but it's too late here hehe.
We need a webtoon of this you are a FANTASTIC writer and I for one think this is the best "Howl x Y/n" I have read, if you'd even call it that 10/10 I have read it again and again I adore this you are amazing. Keep up the good work
You were in his room just like any other day. You made his bed and dusted all of his little Knick knacks and made sure the clocks were running as they should be. You were tired but you couldn’t rest. Not until it was all done. It had to be perfect so that he could just come in and lay next to you again without having to worry about a thing. He’d been gone for quite a while on this mission but you weren’t concerned. He always ran a little behind on his missions, usually getting caught up in collecting native flowers from where he was. It was a little thing you two always did ever since he started these missions. You hummed the beautiful tune of the enchanted music box to yourself happily as you cleaned and organized. Not too much of course, we would never want a repeat of the first time you did so. You smiled at the memory, your heart clenching as you remember how much you missed him. Eventually you had put away all of the cleaning supplies and you took a seat on the chair by his bed and you closed your eyes, softly humming the beautiful tune. You could almost hear his humming as well. This was always his favorite song. You and him would dance and dance until the night turned into day, and the day into night. It was always so magical. You heard the door open but kept your eyes closed as the footsteps were too light to be howl. Maybe Markl wanted to hear the song as well, he did that too when he missed him. After some time, though, the door softly creaked shut but you didn’t mind. Your heart simply swelled at the thought of the song replaying over and over as you waited for howls safe return. Outside the door however, stood markl, now in his teenage years, accompanied by the witch of the waste herself with a loosely floating calcifer. “Is she still in there?” Markl asks and calcifer nods. “I’m worried…” calcifer starts but pauses, hesitant to say it. “Ever since we got the news howl had been… you know… she’s never been the same.” “She’s waiting for him.” The witch of the waste speaks up. “Sometimes, all we have left are the memories we shared to keep us going. We just have to let her be.” “She wasn’t supposed to leave me. She promised.” Markl says, fighting his tears. “She’ll come back to us some day” she softly smiles, pity written all over her face. “Come markl, let’s have our lunch.” She paused, thinking. “Eggs, bacon and toast again?” She asks. Markl simply nods quietly as they walk back towards the kitchen. IM SO SORRY 😭😭I MADE MYSELF CRY WRITING THIS WHY DO I DO THIS-
Every studio ghibli movie gives me butterflies from fantasy and imagination 💗💗😭 it sounds weird but i just stan theyre also sooo nostalgic 💕 i luv the vibes theyre immaculate.
I'm listening to this while crocheting Howl's jacket, and this makes me so happy, i love this movie and book so much, i wish i lived in their world, and i absolutely love how we've all collectively agreed that Howl gave us an enchanted music box that plays when hes thinking of us
I had a dream just last night where I was able to walk through a dimly lit house, and every room was a major event in my life from when I was little to adult years. Even events I’ve never had, I could see my future. This video had exactly the atmosphere of the dream I had and I can’t stop listening. I wished I could’ve kept dreaming.
Whenever I put this beautiful piece to play, I am always consumed with a sense of nostalgia to the point of having tears. That’s why I try to avoid it because it makes me feel so intensely. However, I truly love it. I don’t know why so many people feel nostalgia when we listen to it but I think that this is its magic. A strange nostalgia for a dream, a place you’ve never been but feel such a melancholy for not seeing again. It’s almost 3 in the morning and my heart can’t help but clench at this magical melody.
I just started listening to this and after about 15 mins i just started crying. I am feeling so many emotions its hard to explain. It's like like i miss something that never happened. Like i'm nostalgic for a world that never existed with the realization of that i started crying even more. I realized why i loved this movie so much. Its not because howl is amazing (he is but that's besides the point) or the characters in it. It's because the world we live in today is so painful and plain, having to worry about whether we are going to die of Covid every time we leave the house ect. In the movie everything is so peaceful, like how it used to be before we lost our 'precious' teenage years and for some people their childhood to the pandemic. The movie shows us everything we wish we could have, spells/curses, magic, kind people, a person who loves you no matter what, being able to help someone everybody else feared and feel like the main character and just general happiness. The movie gives us everything we cannot have in this world. So now i'm just balling my eyes out. This movie will forever be my favorite.
No matter what speed you set the video on, it still remains so incredibly beautiful Though putting it at 2x..... it sounds like a very wacky but lovely dream??? Just something you'd never want to experience again because you couldn't make sense of it(basically Alice in Wonderland but different)
Either it's an end, or a new beginning, Is it my sadness or happiness that ends here? Your eyes still can not answer to any of my questions.. You knew everything; Yet you loved me without me knowing. What do I do when you say the truth at this last moment? Why did you tie me up with someone else? Shouldn't you have been with me instead of him? Weren't we actually supposed to be together? Why did u lie to me? Why did you break your own heart? Why did you give me my life back? Maybe it's for him who loves me a lot..who would not live without me.. I thought its me and him... but you If only I had really met you before... If you had told me all this then..
I have such a love for this one. Always playing it when I can’t fall asleep. My favorite and only that don’t irritate me or hurt my brain. Never delete😭😭😭💙💙💙
after watching howl’s moving castle for the first time, the soundtrack instantly captured my heart and the characters just made me fall in love with them so deeply 🥺 what a masterpiece i always find myself thinking about .. if only i could live in a world just as magical and lovely as that one
Imagine: while howl is away, you were on his bed, waiting for his presence to be felt..You were caressing the music box that he left you with, you spinned the music box making it play by it's own..You saw yourself and howl in the music box, you were both dancing as it spins around continually, your eyelids were like carrying a heavy weight which makes your eyes slowly getting heavier and heavier until you drift peacefully to sleep, whilst in the middle of your sleeping, you felt someone's presence beside you..Making your eyes wide open, you saw the person that you've been missing so much, "Howl, you're here" You spoked with a sleepy grin on your lips, he cupped your cheeks as he leave a peck on your forehead and your cheeks, "I missed you so much, sweetheart.." Replied howl with his indeed charming smile, "I'm sorry i bothered you in your sleep" He scratched his nape awkwardly, making you chuckle shortly.."Howl, I don't really mind so no need ti apologize" You paused and spoked again, "You must be exhausted, can you perhaps sleep with me?" He nods with head with a weak grin tracing on his lips, "You don't need to ask me that question, because the answer is already obvious..My darling" His lips gently pressed on yours, you kissed him back, you can feel your heart doing backflips and your thrilled romantic emotions were rushing through your nerves, butterflies are felt in your stomach when you feel him kiss your forehead saying: "Goodnight, sweetheart.." He spoked, his hands snake on your waist..You can feel his breath brushing on your skin, you can't help but smile foolishly, "Goodnight, howl..." Replied with your gently and sweet voice as you close your eyes completely closed and drift to sleep once again happily.
I've been watching this video every night for almost a month now, it's the only thing that makes me fall asleep, that makes me feel safe, protected, relaxed and in peace. It is a melody that seems to remind me that "everything is fine", the day magically slips away from me and the weight I feel inside is canceled. Thank you for creating such a wonderful thing🥺💖
All I can think about when listening to this is dancing with your lover in an old, slightly crumbled and vine covered elegant ballroom. That- or Wilbur and Sally. Wilbur playing the piano and Sally dances with young Fundy, then after the wars when he's older, Fundy playing the piano while the ghosts of Wilbur and Sally dance again. Or Passerine. After Tommy had died. Wilbur and Techno, playing something like this for him in the garden. T^T You can add this song to really any thing with the right characters and amount of sadness. Heck, you can probably add this to Flowers From 1970.
I don't know how to explain the feeling I'm feeling. It's a sort of comforting yet sad feeling, like you want to cry for no reason. Not really knowing where you want to be, not really knowing where you belong, idk. Is that just me or? ._.
YESSSSS thank you! ❤️ For real yesterday I was reading fluffy HMC fanfic and this was the perfect version to listen to, but I had to keep starting it over, and I wondered when the one hour version would come out. Perfect timing! Thx!
@Noelia Hernández Ramírez Sure thing! I must have read like a dozen but these are my favorites that I was reading at the time: archiveofourown.org/works/934914 2/chapters/21176873#workskin archiveofourown.org/works/29200815 archiveofourown.org/works/26074924/chapters/63532534#workskin
If you haven't already, you might like reading the original novel (and its two sequels!) They differ from the movie but they're still just as charming!
When I listen to this song in silence, its gives me the undescribable peace and expressions. Its like this song has thousands of stories inside it. While I'm falling asleep, I feel like it took me to Howl's world. So many beautiful scenery. And his castle is full with many interesting things. Lol i just realised I should stop listening, its taking me to my fantasy in Howl's castle. I really wish I could live there. Its just so wonderful, even if there are wars. The wars will vanish because of the beauty of this story.
I've fallen asleep to this for the past 3 weeks straight. Its my comfort when I'm at my loneliest and it's filled the little holes in my heart. Thank you endlessly for making this. I wish you and everyone else in this comment section a rwally beautiful life.
And here I am at 4:08 am , silently crying in my bed... after having a little mis communication with the person I love ... Idk this feeling that I’m feeling in my heart now ... it’s like my heart is beating so fast yet are breath is getting shallow .. is this feeling called the fear of losing someone you always wanna take care of ? Idk ... why do u have to be like this ... I try my best to keep you happy ... and at the end I succeed .. but don’t you realize this constant mood swing of yours is breaking me ? I know you do understand... but you lose it sometimes... I understand.. and that’s why I’m always here for u .. even though I’m crying now ... bt I love u .. and never wanna lose u ❤️❤️
I’m listening to it while working and suddenly I felt like I’m going back to when I was a kid . My fantasy is traveling back to my childhood while I still have my present memories and change everything;)) howl soundtrack never disappoint anyone

Omg yes Yutas long hair is superior

dont worry, your fantasies are shared within the large fandom
I’m imagining Youre going to bed, howl is away, he has charmed a music box to play when he is thinking of you while he’s not with you
That would be beautiful :')
I feel a little heartbroken today... this thought sounds so sweet, it made me cry. Would be wonderful to have such caring guy
the cutest thing I've read all day
STOP OMFG
I am cry
"yes i added the heartbeat so people would feel the sensation of bein-"
[gunshots]
This made me chuckle, good job.
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 I can’t hear the fucking heart beaaaattt
@@adriandesan8372 that’s the point 😃
I JUST REALIZED BESTIE NO- 🥶🥶💀💀💀💀
Of being alive?
I wish one day I could just disappear into the howl's moving castle world.
Ok first of all. Yes to your comment, that would be amazing. For now one can just try to escape into the howl world in their dreams. Maybe you can too :)
Second, i adore your name, fellow bts fan hehe (the picture is gold as well, oh what a fine taste you have) i wish you all the happy dreams💕
Go to Wales. In the book, that’s were Howl was actually from (black door). The black door is to our world, his house in Wales lol
Shift bestie
Im planning on shifting there lol
shift realities! that's what i'm doing.
I was working on an essay listening to this song....I fell asleep
oh no.... i am also currently writing my essay at 1:12 am. haha
dayum, I'm also working on an essay, 4:43am here
Relatable

I'm curious about who's heart that is because howl...
It can mean only one thing...
@@Infinitis screaming
@@SairinEarthsea but dint howl got his heart back-
If I have a kid I'd be playing this for him/her as their lullaby songs
I thought about the same thing😆
OMG same !
same
Damn me too , I want my future kids to feel so relaxed and calm
you can just say they/them
I saw someone say this would be such a good song to take a midnight shower too in the comments a while ago and just tried it, 10/10 recommend especially if your lights are kinda dim
Thank you for mentioning it, that sounds absolutely amazing
Bless
Is it weird that I am scared of midnight showers?
@@listorin6314 no but they are charming
@@listorin6314 not at all I don't like showers in the night either
this song is the smell of the earliest morning hours. dancing around by yourself, in your softest clothes with the window open - you can smell the night air! and feel a cool breeze. there is peace in knowing you are the only one awake, with everything just to yourself. all the smells and goosebumps and savoring the stretch of your muscles and knowing your elegance is just for you.
Thank you, that was beautiful 🥺💕
So true ugh! Beautifully said
Such a beautiful comment, thanks💖
Ooh Yeah. Just described it to soul magic
this is really cute but i must say.. based on the book i just know howl's room is musty afff 😭
th-cam.com/video/QHCLOve6YnA/w-d-xo.html💞💞
OMG THANKS FOR SAYING IT LOL
poor guy wouldnt want anyone to clean it up either lol
My rhinitis acting up the moment I stand in front of his door: 🌀🌪️👃💧
Can you tell me why he doesn't want to clean his room?
every time i listen to anything related to howls moving castle I get so sad??? like it makes me realize how arbitrary and boring ordinary life is and how much i want to just be freeeeeeeee
but i cant stop because i love howl so much :(((((((((((
Funnily enough that’s the premise of Howl’s Moving Castle
@@OwlsSkySailing lmao true...
shift there :)
Same feels. Listening to this music makes my heart aches. Like I could cry for no reason :
callia, me too. People say shifting, but it’s not enough, i want to be there, truly in my physical body. I wish magic was real. This world is so tiring, sometimes i get excited at the idea of there being something ethreal after death just because of how sad and boring this world is.
You know that feeling when you resonate with something so deeply on a level you cant even begin to describe with words. This song is that for me. It just feels like a part of me, a truth that I'm unable to convey. A place that's pure happiness... I'm rambling.. wish all of you a good week.
th-cam.com/video/QHCLOve6YnA/w-d-xo.html💞💞
That’s actually how I feel when I watch or listen to howls moving castle. I start crying when I know I can’t have it and I feel stuck. Like I’m missing something and this is it. This song makes me want to go there in all my power but I know I can’t, hence why I cry
Yeah I feel the same it’s like so magical that I can’t even express the feelings in words and for the 4 min of this song I feel completely in another world and I feel so relaxed...this song it’s just on another level
Srry for my bad English
@@dingdong5423 ur english is perfect:))
no i know exactly what you mean. it makes me nostalgic and longing for a place and time I can't remember
I came here to fall asleep but now I’m scrolling through all the comments and fangirling. Sweet dreams and endless fantasies definitely live here, though sleep has eluded me.
💗
I agreed, guess comments section under movie Ghibli soundtrack are always so amazing and comfortable.
For me, it's make me very happy know there are so many people who enjoy this song and eventualy falls asleep.
Same 😭
HELP ITS LIKE 3 AM IM DOING THAT RN I NEED SLEEP, IM GOING SHOPPING TMR 🥲✋
Short story: I play the piano, and it's near a couch. So every time my mom lays there, I play this for her. She often falls asleep.
Guys please show your loved ones how much you love them and don't let them forget it. Nobody wants to feel regret when they lose someone.
this is adorable :)
lol whenever i play this in close proximity to my mom she tells me to shut up and gets annoyed
@@mikewazowksi7938 oh damn :/
I’m currently learning this on the piano and it’s so beautiful it’s one of my favourites as I often learn something and overplay it either while learning it or just over play it but this. I’ll never get over how beautiful it is
@@mikewazowksi7938 perhaps play something of her choice.. I know my brother would scream at me to stop until I played something he liked! He didnt complain after that lol XD
The dislikes are all the girls that didn’t end up with Howl
707 HELLO DO YOUR SHOES NEED SHINING
All of us?
Do you know that the Korean VA of Howl is also the VA of 707?
now we just need a 10 hour version
🤪🕶️🤏🏻

right click on the video (if your on laptop or pc) and click the loop option
@@princesoraru7268 THANK YOU, THAT IS VERY USEFUL
@Ella Delgado you dont have to change the settings, its already there in the right click option bar
okay but how adorable is it that howl sleeps with plushies?
Makes him even more relatable, the urge to wanting to save the world but in the end only being able to take a nap and cuddle with plushies
@@EvaRoses0 the pillow like plushies are the best
GUYS PSA!!!! PLAY THIS AND PUT IT UNDER YOUR PILLOW, THEN LAY WITH YOUR HEAD SIDEWAYS ON THE PILLOW IT SOUNDS SO COOL
i second this
Oh wow!!!! THANKS it sounds and feels like I have a music box inside my head playing the music hahah so good and chill
I did i love it❤😊
Lol. I tried it it worked wonders. Thank you🥰🥰
Yeah, I always do that, extra points if there's a cat with me lol
small reminder, you can have a ghibli life too ! wake up early and take time getting ready and making breakfast. or if you woke up late, stay up at night to study hard. if you have a job already, take note of your surroundings, there may be small things that beautiful yet hard to notice. go on walks for exercise and to take in nature. and after you finish your work, take a 30 minute break, watch your favorite show, anime, or read a book. if you look at it, it's really not that hard, live the life you dream of
Exactly! Journaling, having long walks (maybe taking your dog out and anything happening like your dog chasing a squirrel still fits the story idea 😂), creating things like art, anything can be turned into a Ghibli vibe or just better, it’s all on the perspective most often. Life is good man… and difficulties will always pass no matter how bad they are. One way or the other. But we still must face them with bravery and get out of them stronger than before. 😊❤
I don't know who you are, but thank you for saying this❤️
Ngl I wish my room was as messy as howl’s it looks so damn comfy
Dude I just want his room in general...like the trinkets n all lmao
I wonder of there’s some sort of shop when you can buy all this cool stuff🤔 I would really like to have a room like Howl’s someday 😌
@@Peytur I have a lot of things like this in my room. Try searching for hippy/boho trinkets or Nepalese products are usually colourful like this. Lots of hanging things like camel charms etc I have. The stuff you see selling for at festivals
I also did love to have howl’s room but im trying to be minimalist tsk 😭
@@atirahyasim981 i feel you lol,my room is a mess and I don’t know if I should clean it or leave it like it is(the thing is,I keep tripping on stuff and hurting myself/breaking objects)
Missing human contact so much that I started crying *peace sign emoji* I will listen this religiously until lockdown ends.
Bless you dear one:)
I'm sorry, me too. *virtual hugs*
feeling this...
Same tho 😤
I’m such a baby I cry EVERY single time I hear this song it makes me feel so many emotions like I cannot explain it and the feeling idk what it is like idek
Same
i do be listening to this in a high volume, pressing my headphones in my ears just TO HEAR THE HEARTBEAT YA'LL ARE TALKIN ABOUT, WHAT PART IS IT
It's a joke, people are talking about their own heartbeat. There are a few people who are under the impression that there is audio of the heart beating but there isn't.
The joke is based on the story since (SPOILERS)
Howl's heart is with Calcifer, therefore his body doesn't have a heartbeat. The fans are joking they can hear his "heartbeat" playing silently along with the music.
this makes me feel nostalgic for something i never had
sounds like a music box being played inside a theater, I somehow imagine a small ballerina on the music box spinning...
Reminds of the music box Tinkerbell fixed
how about small howl & sophie dancing a waltz..✨
me, playing this song on my piano in the living room, knowing full well it's called "Howl's Moving Castle Theme"
my family, who judge me for watching anime movies: wow this is beautiful what's it called?
me: uhhh
its also called merry go round of life
It's actually called "Merry-Go-Round of Life".
@@isa-ip9wl Just tell them, it's not that big of a deal, it's music.
@@isa-ip9wl Nah, my parents are racist, and hate anything Asian related, but they honestly don't care about Merry-Go-Round of life, it's a song, so they can't really hate it.
@@isa-ip9wl Thank you, and I wish the best for you as well. Sometimes I play this piece just to tick them off haha
POV: gender neutral
"I really am sorry about your hair." You said tentatively, standing in the doorway to Howl's room. It was a cluttered mess but you didn't dare clean it for fear of making him mad. Yet, you already had.
Howl's eyes flickered over to meet yours. He sighed and looked up at the ceiling.
"You know," You said, gaining a bit of courage, "I believe you to be stunning, even with your new hair color. It truly does suit you."
You saw a small smile creep onto his lips, a red blush adorning his cheeks. "Thank you, love. Come lay with me, please?" He said everything so sweetly and carefully.
If only you knew how much he loved you.
You nodded and walked over to his bed as he turned on his side to give you more space. You climbed in next to him, smoothing your dress as he stared at you.
"I think you're beautiful too." He whispered, convinced you wouldn't hear him.
Your face immediately went red as you stumbled over your words, obviously flustered. "T-thank you, Howl."
He hummed in reply as he placed on hand around your waist, trailing it up and down your spine, bringing you closer to him. You rested your hands on his warm chest, feeling safe. Something you hadn't felt in a long time.
"Look at me..." He whispered gently, and you did. How could you not. He was breathtaking. "Good girl."
He smiled softly and connected his lips to yours, startling you a bit, but you kissed him back nonetheless.
His lips were soft and comforting. Your lips parted from one another as he leaned back to look at you.
You smiled and so did he.
Howl felt like home.
Sorry it was so short! I really hope you enjoyed it! :D
Damn girl the part where he say "Good girl" got me so bad...🤧🤧🤧 Here I am trying to sleep yet when I read this pov I turned into a blushing mess and stuttering eventhou I know he ain't real 😩🤚😔Oh well I guess to the wattpad world we go to simp for him some more😔☺
✨Thank you for the POV it really touch my heart🥺✨💖💖💖
@@Ana-rh4pv omg yw!!!! glad you enjoyed it
i think my heart just shattered-
Loved it
I want someone who talks to me like that
My boyfriend and I love this movie so much! We often compare our relationship with that of Sophie’s and Howl’s. He even got me a music box that plays the first part of this theme for Valentines. ❤️ 🎶
That's so beautiful and adorable 😭❤️
that is the cutest thing! :')
lucky you
That's a keeper
words can’t describe how this song makes me feel. it’s a mix of both sadness and delight. it makes me feel like i’m dancing in a light flowy dress underneath the bright sky while my comfort character watches me with a small smile- but then i’d remember that he isn’t real, and it’d just make me feel sad and nostalgic over a memory that’s never been made.
sometimes i wish i’d lived in a world where i could just freely choose how to live, without the invisible chains of this one pulling me down. how magical would it be, to live in a world like that?
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. It's like I'm in a whimsical secret garden in a full moon night laid down in the grass looking up for the stars with the cold breeze of the night reminding me that I'm completely alone but not lonely
I told the stars about you
I told the stars about you
Your dangerous smile and moonlit eyes
You told me you could give me the world,
But all you left me was a sparkling, shimmering..stardust
Your sun kissed skin, glows less
You were my universe, but now you're a broken wish
A fallen star with no remorse, with no meaning
I told the stars about you and they told me,
"Don't cry, there are millions of stars out there, you just have to find the one who shines brighter than the rest".
No longer your one and only
I am no longer your one and only,
What happened?
"I love you",
That three word is still stuck in my head,
I remember being the happiest person in the world hearing that coming from your mouth,
I know there was a time where you truly loved me,
The time where I was your one and only,
But that was 4 years ago.
I wish I could turn back time to our highschool days,
Everybody loved you, yet you only had eyes for me,
You studied hard so we could start a new life together.
I gave up my friends and family all for you,
All so we could live a happily ever-after,
I've noticed whenever you talk to me,
You'd always give me this look of joy,
But that look for me had already faded years ago.
The truth is,
I've known since it first started,
The lipstick marks on your collar,
The scent of perfume which does not belong to either of us
The strands of long hair found under the sofa.
I knew it all,
And yet I never brought it up, scared it would tear our relationship apart,
The times when you'll leave home for days and even weeks for your "business trip",
In those times I feel extremely lonely,
I'd crawl up in a corner and cry,
Even after all that, I still love you.
Every night I'd pray for things to go back to the way it is,
Because I always believed there is still hope for us,
But it never did.
I knew you liked flowers so I planted plenty in the garden and took care of it well everyday,
Every Spring we’d go to the garden together and admire the flowers,
I miss those days.
Soon, I fell ill but didn't bother to tell you,
"Its not like you'll care anyways",
I'll only be a burden if I do.
As I was walking across the road to the drug store,
I thought,
" If only I was still your one and only.."
And in the blink of an eye,
*honk honk*, *crash*,
"Daily news report with a car crash incident which occurred earlier this evening..."
It all ended just like that,
I hope you'll treat her as your one and only from now on.
Wilted flowers
During Spring,
The prettiest flowers in our garden would bloom,
Roses, tulips, lilies, peonies and lavender's,
All were taken care by my one and only,
were.
It happened one summer,
That one fatal day where he left the world,
He was hit by a car.
I wasn't the best of all,
If I'm being honest I don't deserve him,
I am a man of lies.
Behind his back I had another,
I didn't know what I was thinking at the time,
Anything, I could never forgive myself,
I can't forgive how I never paid attention to him,
I never noticed how much he was hurting while I was having fun out,
"Appreciate your loved one while they are alive before it's too late"
That sentence that I never really cared about became the sentence that's haunting me,
I wish I could turn back time too,
To when you are still alive,
I'd want to change everything,
To make you feel like you're my everything all over again,
But it's already too late.
This Spring, the flowers wilted,
As so did my heart,
I wish I could see the flowers bloom with you by my side one last time.
We both loved each other
We've had our ups and down's but we always end up forgiving one another,
We've had multiple adventures and made lots of great memories together,
It was clear of the affection that we both had for each other,
We love each other.
As where I am here today I remember,
I used to think of our future,
About how we could buy a house together, have a dog and even children of our own together,
I'd think of that feeling of having an actual family together,
Oh how wonderful!
But then.. all that crashed when I snap back to reality,
To the reality where the priest said " Will you take this woman as your beloved wife?"
"Yes", he said,
"Would you take this man to be your now husband?"
"Yes," she said.
"We loved each other.. so what went wrong?"
I thought as I stand by his now wife,
As they kiss happily,
I though once again,
"What went wrong..??"
A single drop of tear rolled down onto my face,
Even so I still smiled,
Because i am happy for them..
I am happy for the man I once loved.
This was absolutely beautiful and terribly tragic
How tf is this a TH-cam comment this is the most beautiful thing I’ve read in a long time omg
I'm listening to this while doing schoolwork and my cat just curled up on my lap and fell right asleep. Idk what kind of magic calmed my cat, who was just crazy, enough to sleep but I'm going to credit this video lol.
Omg that literally just happened to me right now!! Guess cats like that song very much.. :)
Who else cant hear the heartbeat but desperately wants to
I’m going to start crying, I have such a close tie to Howl’s Moving Castle. This makes me feel so safe and warm you have no idea how much you have filled a void❣️
A nightmare. It was so painful that tears rolled down without realizing it. She could feel someone's warmth on her cold cheeks. Wiping away those sparkling liquid. The big hand rubbed her cheek lovingly.
"Darling ?," a familiar voice can be heard.
"Howl ?," she woke up quickly as soon as she recognised it.
Hugging the man's body tightly with longing. After a long time out to carry out responsibilities, now the man is home.
"Don't be afraid anymore, I'm here with you now," Howl said in a soft tone.
"I love you,"
"Me too, now let's go to sleep," Howl laid the girl carefully and then slept next to her. Wrapped her with his arms as well as sending the warmth.
While laying, Howl casted a spell with his hand moving gently. Suddenly a beautiful melody appeared just to send both of them to a dreamland.
"Good night, my love," Howl whispered.
YALL IS THE DRAWING MOVING? ISTG HIS CHEST IS MOVING
NOW THAT YOU MENTIONED IT-
NOW I CANT TELL IF IT IS MOVING OR IF MY EYES OR THE PLACEBO EFFECT ARE JUST MESSING WITH ME
It isn’t moving
AY YO WAIT A SECOND I'M TRYING TO STARE INTENSELY AND I CAN'T TELL IF WHAT I'M SEEING IS REALLY NOT
Idk cuz Its kinda pixelated so I’d think it would be easier to see if it was moving
literally pls don't ever delete this, i am constantly coming back and listening to it
In totoro and in spirited away they have soot spirits/balls I can imagine Howl having soot balls under his bed (like the alive ones that he feeds the sugar star candy things to)
small pov because im sad while listening to this for the 50 millionth time XD
you lay in his bed while the music box chimes its melody gently on the bedside table, your hair falling onto a pillow around you. a calm breeze was brushing against your face from somewhere unknown in the room, whilst it was cold it was welcoming and relaxing to you. it reminded you of the strange coldness of howls hands as he pushed your hair out of your face and behind your ear or when he held your face in such a loving way as you wish he was in this moment.
your eyes finally flutter close as your breathing slows to a near halt and you fall into a peaceful slumber, the music box chimes continuing by dimming in loudness almost as if it knew you had fallen asleep finally .eventually you felt the mattress beside you dip and a soft humming start accompanying the music box. howl shifted his weight and laid down next to you, enveloping your half-asleep form in a hug placing a kiss on your forehead and rubbing small calming circles onto the base of your spine as he always does when you lay together like this.
-----
dont know what else to add so this is it for now XD
listening to this? i could reminisce my past sitting on the floor with scattered photo books near the firepit, walk through the hallway of a castle filled with portrait paintings, silently roam barefoot around a victorian manor wearing a flowy white dress, stargaze through a large window while sipping tea with a cat and read dark academia literature
Glad I accidentally pressed the wrong song, I love this
Please add some male breathing ins and outs, some moving in bed sounds to the audio and upload it here *-* I know I’m such an weirdo but I can listen that version forever!
@Faggaholic ahahahaha kendim hazırliyip upload edicem artık😂

I've had really bad anxiety today and been pretty depressed. Listening to this before bed and it is making me feel loads better and more relaxed. Thank you 😊
Dude same. I’ve been having a really crappy couple days and I stumbled upon this when I woke up and it comforted me so much. It’s like it’s saying “Don’t worry I’m here for you, it’ll all be okay.” And I’ve needed that for the last couple days.
Notice how there is no dislikes? *how it should be*
Indeed

There’s almost 100 now
i’ve been watching Howls Moving Castle for almost my whole life and this just makes me want to cry. it just feels so nostalgic .i feel so much at peace and calm. it’s like the whole world and all of its stress and fears that have been placed on me has been lifted. when i listen to it it seems like time has stoped. it makes you aware of all the little sounds, like your heart beat, and breathing. all of the notes just fit perfectly together and just... i can’t even. this song is definitely a gift from God himself.
Years after I'm still mesmerized by Howl's room. Like the decoration stuff 🥺. This is the aesthetic bedroom I'd like💫🥺
Every time a hear this song it makes me wanna cry, it's not sadness, but something inside my heart makes me feel this way. This song resonates in my soul and I can feel it.
* deep breath * I would trade my heart anyday ... to be there in the castle... especially if howl was being there i would really like a hug form him...
A lot of people say they imagine cuddling him but I just want to be that man
RIGHT i have so much gender envy w howl
@@guysjustaguy agreed
Gender envy honestly, my cosplay is coming later this month tho! I'm super exited.
My pronouns are he/he, because I’ll be Him.
this is my comfort song, it transports me to a different world a world where I am safe and sound, it is a blessing.
felt inspired so instead of doing my thesis, I wrote a lil poem? lyrics? idk
oh my lord this is beautiful and needs more likes
[ pov - errors ahead | gender neutral ]
You are slowly waking up, lying cozily on his bed. You have this question in your head as the, how did you end up sleeping on Howl's bed?
You raised up from lying down, lightly rubbing your eyes to remove the sleepiness. You scanned the room but there's no Howl in sight. Until you remember what happened -
You are kind of tired and now you're just reading a book from Howl's bookshelf. You let yourself get swallowed by the emotions of this particular scene you are reading, swallowed to the point you didn't hear Howl calling your name.
"Y/N?" Howl peeked behind you, calling your name for the third time. You still didn't notice him and that made the long haired man sulk and crave more of your attention.
You didn't notice anything, still absorbed to what you're reading. He sighed and slowly crept out behind you.
He snaked his arms around your waist and leaned next to your ear. "Darling, I've been calling you for three times and you did not even spare me a glance" Well, now he has your attention.
You can feel your face, neck, and ear heat up. His voice and breath just next to your ear made your heart flutter. He spoke again, "Would rather have your book...." He started, putting his chin on your shoulder. "Or me?"
You can't help but grin. He's jealous now because of a book? Adorable. You patted his head that is resting on your shoulder. "I'm sorry my love, I got carried away by the story. I pick you over the book so what do you need? You said you called me three times" You asked.
He buried his face on your neck, his breath fanning on your neck. "I'll be honest, I just want your attention" He said, creating a vibration on your neck, tickling you. You chuckled and stood up.
You opened your arms and he gladly snooped you in a hug. You arms around his waist while his are on your shoulder. You two stayed like that for some time, slightly swaying.
Your foreheads againts each other. Sneaking some little pecks on cheeks or any part of your face. "You always make my heart skip a beat, you know" He softly said, cupping your face with his hands.
You smiled, "So do you" You feel happiness. It feels like you're in an infinite mass of euphoria everytime he's with you. You can't but to feel relaxed and content in his arms.
"Your eyes are heavy. You feel sleepy, Precious?" You heard him said as your head is now leaning on his shoulder. You didn't hesitate to nod your head yes. Just being in his arms made you feel home after all.
"Wrap your arms around my neck, Darling. I'll pick you up and put you to bed" He kissed your forehead when you complied to his order. You feel yourself being carried by Howl himself. Slowly dozing off as started his way to his room.
You now have your eyes closed. You can faintly hear the door opening, you seemed to reach his room. You were to sleepy to properly examine everything.
He laid you gently on his bed. He saw you already falling asleep so he wrapped the blanket on you. He can't surpress his smile.
"I love you" He whispered the three words and kissed your forehead. He continued to admire you sleeping, not in a creepy way.
You smiled remembering what happened. You're about to stand up and find him when the door opened and revealed the beautiful, long haired man. He's carrying a tray and walked toward you.
You grinned, "Did you cooked for me?" He nodded his head and hesitantly showed the food. "It was- umm - almost burnt, Calcifer's at fault" He whined.
You shooked it off and signalled him to eat with you. That was his plan after all, to eat with you as soon as you wake up from your nap.
"Did you have a good nap?" He asked, tucking your hair backwards so it won't block your eyes. You nodded at him, smiling, as you both enjoy the meal.
The conversation flows nicely and there goes the day with Howl. Living the life of loving someone, containing happiness and sweetness, you are content to be with him.
:)))) ps. was supposed to be longer but it's too late here hehe.
We need a webtoon of this you are a FANTASTIC writer and I for one think this is the best "Howl x Y/n" I have read, if you'd even call it that 10/10 I have read it again and again I adore this you are amazing. Keep up the good work
This is really really good, I can’t believe it didn’t get more attention. My heart is broken that it’s not real 😭😭🥺❤️
I started crying because of how cute this is
@@dakotahs.4185 proofreading this after 4 months, i can say that it's pretty cute to the point i'm feeling lonely. i'm jealous of my written work. /hj
I cant believe i cried to this out of sheer happiness and longing..
I feel like Howl's room would smell like dust, roses and lies
I dunno why but today, I've been crying for the smallest things
Omg your name
You were in his room just like any other day. You made his bed and dusted all of his little Knick knacks and made sure the clocks were running as they should be. You were tired but you couldn’t rest. Not until it was all done. It had to be perfect so that he could just come in and lay next to you again without having to worry about a thing. He’d been gone for quite a while on this mission but you weren’t concerned. He always ran a little behind on his missions, usually getting caught up in collecting native flowers from where he was. It was a little thing you two always did ever since he started these missions. You hummed the beautiful tune of the enchanted music box to yourself happily as you cleaned and organized. Not too much of course, we would never want a repeat of the first time you did so. You smiled at the memory, your heart clenching as you remember how much you missed him.
Eventually you had put away all of the cleaning supplies and you took a seat on the chair by his bed and you closed your eyes, softly humming the beautiful tune. You could almost hear his humming as well. This was always his favorite song. You and him would dance and dance until the night turned into day, and the day into night. It was always so magical. You heard the door open but kept your eyes closed as the footsteps were too light to be howl. Maybe Markl wanted to hear the song as well, he did that too when he missed him. After some time, though, the door softly creaked shut but you didn’t mind. Your heart simply swelled at the thought of the song replaying over and over as you waited for howls safe return.
Outside the door however, stood markl, now in his teenage years, accompanied by the witch of the waste herself with a loosely floating calcifer.
“Is she still in there?” Markl asks and calcifer nods.
“I’m worried…” calcifer starts but pauses, hesitant to say it. “Ever since we got the news howl had been… you know… she’s never been the same.”
“She’s waiting for him.” The witch of the waste speaks up. “Sometimes, all we have left are the memories we shared to keep us going. We just have to let her be.”
“She wasn’t supposed to leave me. She promised.” Markl says, fighting his tears.
“She’ll come back to us some day” she softly smiles, pity written all over her face. “Come markl, let’s have our lunch.” She paused, thinking. “Eggs, bacon and toast again?” She asks. Markl simply nods quietly as they walk back towards the kitchen.
IM SO SORRY 😭😭I MADE MYSELF CRY WRITING THIS WHY DO I DO THIS-
Oh why😭
Not this making me sob at 3 in the morning cmon man 😭😭
my prayers have worked
Every studio ghibli movie gives me butterflies from fantasy and imagination 💗💗😭 it sounds weird but i just stan theyre also sooo nostalgic 💕 i luv the vibes theyre immaculate.
this sounds like a lost memory.
it makes me want to cry.
I imagined myself dancing with howl to this it was amazing
I'm listening to this while crocheting Howl's jacket, and this makes me so happy, i love this movie and book so much, i wish i lived in their world, and i absolutely love how we've all collectively agreed that Howl gave us an enchanted music box that plays when hes thinking of us
I JUST CANT EXPLAIN HOW HAPPY THIS SONG MAKES ME, like i just feel sooo calm whenever i listen to this and i feel so carefree I WANNA CRY??
POV: you’re hiding under howls bed trying to get closer to him 🥴
its so amazing how good ghibli is at world building. every world they have created is unbelievably beautiful and magical. all i wanna do is go there.
It's kind of creepy but beautiful at the same time.
I had a dream just last night where I was able to walk through a dimly lit house, and every room was a major event in my life from when I was little to adult years. Even events I’ve never had, I could see my future. This video had exactly the atmosphere of the dream I had and I can’t stop listening. I wished I could’ve kept dreaming.
Whenever I put this beautiful piece to play, I am always consumed with a sense of nostalgia to the point of having tears. That’s why I try to avoid it because it makes me feel so intensely. However, I truly love it. I don’t know why so many people feel nostalgia when we listen to it but I think that this is its magic. A strange nostalgia for a dream, a place you’ve never been but feel such a melancholy for not seeing again. It’s almost 3 in the morning and my heart can’t help but clench at this magical melody.
I just started listening to this and after about 15 mins i just started crying. I am feeling so many emotions its hard to explain. It's like like i miss something that never happened. Like i'm nostalgic for a world that never existed with the realization of that i started crying even more. I realized why i loved this movie so much. Its not because howl is amazing (he is but that's besides the point) or the characters in it. It's because the world we live in today is so painful and plain, having to worry about whether we are going to die of Covid every time we leave the house ect. In the movie everything is so peaceful, like how it used to be before we lost our 'precious' teenage years and for some people their childhood to the pandemic. The movie shows us everything we wish we could have, spells/curses, magic, kind people, a person who loves you no matter what, being able to help someone everybody else feared and feel like the main character and just general happiness. The movie gives us everything we cannot have in this world. So now i'm just balling my eyes out.
This movie will forever be my favorite.
No matter what speed you set the video on, it still remains so incredibly beautiful
Though putting it at 2x..... it sounds like a very wacky but lovely dream??? Just something you'd never want to experience again because you couldn't make sense of it(basically Alice in Wonderland but different)
Either it's an end, or a new beginning, Is it my sadness or happiness that ends here? Your eyes still can not answer to any of my questions.. You knew everything; Yet you loved me without me knowing. What do I do when you say the truth at this last moment? Why did you tie me up with someone else? Shouldn't you have been with me instead of him? Weren't we actually supposed to be together?
Why did u lie to me? Why did you break your own heart?
Why did you give me my life back? Maybe it's for him who loves me a lot..who would not live without me..
I thought its me and him... but you
If only I had really met you before... If you had told me all this then..
@Faggaholic omg it's for my story! For the climax part! Thank uuh!
Turnip head 🥺
Everytime I miss Howl's I will listen to this , this is so beautiful and I feel fresh on my head
I have such a love for this one. Always playing it when I can’t fall asleep. My favorite and only that don’t irritate me or hurt my brain. Never delete😭😭😭💙💙💙
after watching howl’s moving castle for the first time, the soundtrack instantly captured my heart and the characters just made me fall in love with them so deeply 🥺 what a masterpiece i always find myself thinking about .. if only i could live in a world just as magical and lovely as that one
Imagine:
while howl is away, you were on his bed, waiting for his presence to be felt..You were caressing the music box that he left you with, you spinned the music box making it play by it's own..You saw yourself and howl in the music box, you were both dancing as it spins around continually, your eyelids were like carrying a heavy weight which makes your eyes slowly getting heavier and heavier until you drift peacefully to sleep, whilst in the middle of your sleeping, you felt someone's presence beside you..Making your eyes wide open, you saw the person that you've been missing so much, "Howl, you're here" You spoked with a sleepy grin on your lips, he cupped your cheeks as he leave a peck on your forehead and your cheeks, "I missed you so much, sweetheart.." Replied howl with his indeed charming smile, "I'm sorry i bothered you in your sleep" He scratched his nape awkwardly, making you chuckle shortly.."Howl, I don't really mind so no need ti apologize" You paused and spoked again, "You must be exhausted, can you perhaps sleep with me?" He nods with head with a weak grin tracing on his lips, "You don't need to ask me that question, because the answer is already obvious..My darling" His lips gently pressed on yours, you kissed him back, you can feel your heart doing backflips and your thrilled romantic emotions were rushing through your nerves, butterflies are felt in your stomach when you feel him kiss your forehead saying: "Goodnight, sweetheart.." He spoked, his hands snake on your waist..You can feel his breath brushing on your skin, you can't help but smile foolishly, "Goodnight, howl..." Replied with your gently and sweet voice as you close your eyes completely closed and drift to sleep once again happily.
There's one writing tip that I can give you, after reading this. Do you want it?
I want to lay down quietly beside Howl. I am tired of everything 😔
Okay...which two people mistook the dislike button for the like button?
th-cam.com/video/QHCLOve6YnA/w-d-xo.html💞💞th-cam.com/video/QHCLOve6YnA/w-d-xo.html💞
They thought it was the like button they just couldn’t see it through their tears
I'm making a whole fanfic in my head during this-
I've been watching this video every night for almost a month now, it's the only thing that makes me fall asleep, that makes me feel safe, protected, relaxed and in peace. It is a melody that seems to remind me that "everything is fine", the day magically slips away from me and the weight I feel inside is canceled.
Thank you for creating such a wonderful thing🥺💖
YALL ARE HEARING YOUR OWN HEARTBEATS BECAUSE YOU GUYS HAVE HEADPHONES ON..THEY DIDNT PUT NO HEARTBEAT IN HERE😭😭
This is so often just playing in the back of my head on loop that I genuinely forgot I was listening to the video.
okay i don't know where else to share this but i made myself the plushie that's laying on Howl's bed-
THATS SO COOL OMG
toturial? pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee i need to know how to make these stuff :)
wow
I want one🥰
If I was able to lucid dream I'd definitely spend my entire dream in Howl's world, or almost any Studio Ghibli world
I have so many goosebumps rn, thank you so so so much for making this. Howl is my comfort character and I really needed this rn.
All I can think about when listening to this is dancing with your lover in an old, slightly crumbled and vine covered elegant ballroom.
That- or Wilbur and Sally. Wilbur playing the piano and Sally dances with young Fundy, then after the wars when he's older, Fundy playing the piano while the ghosts of Wilbur and Sally dance again.
Or Passerine. After Tommy had died. Wilbur and Techno, playing something like this for him in the garden. T^T
You can add this song to really any thing with the right characters and amount of sadness. Heck, you can probably add this to Flowers From 1970.
I don't know how to explain the feeling I'm feeling. It's a sort of comforting yet sad feeling, like you want to cry for no reason. Not really knowing where you want to be, not really knowing where you belong, idk.
Is that just me or? ._.
Nope, I feel you, really…
the only heartbeat I can hear is mine
my heard go BADUMBADUMBADUMBADUM while listening to this
Same!
HELP IVE BEEN LISTENING TO THIS FOR HOURS NOWW i love this sm ty

YESSSSS thank you! ❤️ For real yesterday I was reading fluffy HMC fanfic and this was the perfect version to listen to, but I had to keep starting it over, and I wondered when the one hour version would come out. Perfect timing! Thx!
@Noelia Hernández Ramírez Sure thing! I must have read like a dozen but these are my favorites that I was reading at the time:

If you haven't already, you might like reading the original novel (and its two sequels!) They differ from the movie but they're still just as charming!
@@hayapatel_ Oh yes I've been DYING to get my hands on it!!

I’m actually taking a nap while on a night road trip and it feels so magical
when i'll have my own house, i'll put this song in the morning during my breakfast
When I listen to this song in silence, its gives me the undescribable peace and expressions. Its like this song has thousands of stories inside it.
While I'm falling asleep, I feel like it took me to Howl's world. So many beautiful scenery. And his castle is full with many interesting things.
Lol i just realised I should stop listening, its taking me to my fantasy in Howl's castle. I really wish I could live there. Its just so wonderful, even if there are wars. The wars will vanish because of the beauty of this story.
I've fallen asleep to this for the past 3 weeks straight. Its my comfort when I'm at my loneliest and it's filled the little holes in my heart. Thank you endlessly for making this. I wish you and everyone else in this comment section a rwally beautiful life.
And here I am at 4:08 am , silently crying in my bed... after having a little mis communication with the person I love ... Idk this feeling that I’m feeling in my heart now ... it’s like my heart is beating so fast yet are breath is getting shallow .. is this feeling called the fear of losing someone you always wanna take care of ?
Idk ... why do u have to be like this ... I try my best to keep you happy ... and at the end I succeed .. but don’t you realize this constant mood swing of yours is breaking me ?
I know you do understand... but you lose it sometimes... I understand.. and that’s why I’m always here for u .. even though I’m crying now ... bt I love u .. and never wanna lose u ❤️❤️
I am so happy this got recommended to me and I am also happy that all the people commenting are lovely and so are their comments 🥺😊
Right?? I’ve never seen a comment section so warm and welcoming 🥰 also I like you’re username
I’m listening to it while working and suddenly I felt like I’m going back to when I was a kid . My fantasy is traveling back to my childhood while I still have my present memories and change everything;)) howl soundtrack never disappoint anyone
i cant handle this song emotionally rn
That little cat curled up on his feet 😍
