One thing I really appreciate about Ronia the Robber's Daughter is that it's just about the only fantasy story by Astrid Lindgren that no annoying adults have ever claimed was just the main character playing pretend.
("Mio is REALLY sitting in the park all along..." SHUT UP! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!)

Mio in the land of Faraway (1987)
everything about this movie is like sweet fantasy ambrosia to me - an older style of fantasy/adventure film that I always look for, akin to Never-ending Story and the like.
The scenery is great - I love the long bridge and the black knight's castle and under the mountain, and the dungeon scenes are just great. The music is charming and worked well. Christopher Lee is obv brilliant.
Hokey, very trash-stratum stuff, and I can certainly see why it isn't well loved, but it just ticks all the right boxes for me

Don't be afraid of ghosts
I had planned something completely different for this theme, but then this spontaneous idea came to me for various reasons. Maybe someone will recognize what I was thinking about; at least you don't have to be afraid of this ghost 🤗... I was afraid as a kid though 👀 ...

books like Ponyo
Tumblr media
in Ponyo, a goldfish-turn-human girl (Ponyo) gets to know the human world through her friendship with a human boy (Sosuke). their unlikely friendship makes them go on adventures, before Ponyo is forced to return to her father’s underwater world. but the love for the human world and for Sosuke may prove to be stronger. the recommendations are mostly similar as they are all about children of a different background finding their new family.

Eric, Shaun Tan
fantasy, illustrated, 48 pages
the life of a regular family is changed by the arrival of Eric, a foreign exchange student. a lighthearted yet very metaphorical little book about cultural differences, and the joys therein. beautiful illustrations.
The Graveyard Book, Neil Gaiman
fantasy, middle grade, 288 pages
when Nobody’s family is murdered, he is raised by the ghosts in a nearby graveyard. when the murderer finds out Nobody is still alive, he’s in trouble. though the ghosts are different from him, they become his family, and eventually, he connects to live humans too. a bit dark and delightfully strange.
Mio My Son, Astrid Lindgren
fantasy, classics, children’s, 178 pages
Karl is living an unhappy life as an unwanted foster child when he is called to Fantasyland, where he learns his real name, Mio, and that he is the king’s son. he befriends the boy Pompoo, and the two travel together on the horse Miramis to defeat the knight Kato, who has a heart of stone.
The Doubtful Guest, Edward Gorey
fantasy, art, 32 pages
if you have never read something by Gorey, you’re in for a treat. in this beautifully illustrated little comic, an unwelcome, silent guest comes to stay with a stern victorian family, who despite their confusion, never ask the guest to leave. not heartwarming as Ponyo is, but fantastically strange, funny, and even cute.

Mio in the Land of Faraway (1987)
My rating: 6/10
Very cheesy, fairly generic portal fantasy with occasional bits of amusing weirdness (like the giant floating head whose beard the kid rides into fantasy land - y'all better have your Zardoz references at the ready), and overall entertaining enough - plus if you ever wanted to see Christopher Lee menace a teensy tiny baby Christian Bale, this is the movie for you.

You Never Forget Your First
Universe: Starbound CW: Grief Words: 665 Context: Written for the Woe, Cubes be Upon Ye Protectorate Event, some of Mio feelings about the Terrene Protectorate.
Tumblr media
"Where you go, I'll be right behind you…" The song drifted along the quiet, empty corridors of The Vestige, mournful in its longing and loneliness. "Where I go, I'll have you at my side…" Kata looked up from where she was reading, hidden in a storage compartment near the front of the ship. Her e-book was tucked into a pocket as Kata rose, flicking one long, grey pigtail out of her face. She crept out of the storage compartment. "Where we go, together…" The song was coming from the Bridge. Kata checked her watch. Past midnight, local planetary time. No one but she was usually up this late. No one but the Captain was allowed on the bridge.
Kata crept forward, keying open the Bridge door, wincing at the pneumatic hiss. Sat in the chair at the navigation console was Captain Mio. "There's nothing we can't fight through. Nothing we can't weather…" The rising beeps and bloops from the ship's instruments made an odd accompaniment. With every other line of the song, Mio tapped the little hula girl, gummed down to the top of the console. "If you've got my back, I've got yours. Standing firm against it all…" Kata couldn't stand the pain in her captain's voice any longer. She rapped against the metal hull.
Instantly the song died in Mio's throat. She rocketed to her feet, reaching for the pistol on her hip. "Kata! 'Tides, woman…" Mio cleared her throat, hand moving away from her weapon to sign out, "What can I do for you?" Kata stepped onto the Bridge. "Captain, you okay?" she signed, her hands slow and cautious. "Yes, thank you." Kata frowned at Mio's quick and perfunctory signs. Kata drew herself up, her gestures sharper. "Respectfully, do not believe you." Mio lifted her chin. Kata looked her in the eye, one fist on her hip.
All at once, the Captain seemed to crumble. Her shoulders bowed, her gills flared rapidly, and the underside of her throat flushed a speckled red. Mio wobbled on her feet, then fell back into her seat. Kata cried out as she rushed over, hands flittering between Mio and signing, "Captain! What's wrong? You sick? I get Medic!" "No, it's fine." Mio caught Kata's shoulders, before her hands returned, tremulous, to the signs. "I'm just… I miss my first crew." Kata shook her head in confusion. "That song was one Fabian came up with. To remind us there was nothing we couldn't do together. Tides, he was so proud of it too." Mio nictated, her gaze over Kata's shoulder. "And here I am, singing it as a mourning song, instead of a marching song." "This at Academy?" Kata asked. "Yes. Our last year, we were sorted into proto-crews. We trained together as one unit. We should have graduated together. Gone into space together." "How long?" "Since Earth?" Mio's hands shook, mangling the sign for the Protectorate's homeworld. "Nearly five years? Maybe. I'm ashamed to say space has made time fuzzy." "It has been seven years, three months, 19 days, 55 hours and 3 minutes," SAIL's modulated voice came quietly through the speaker on the console.
Mio twitched an eyebrow ridge, her throat working. "Okay to miss people. Sadness not a failing," Kata said. "Don't have to hide." The shiver in Mio's hands belied the perfunctoriness of her signs. "I have my current crew to think of. Food to source, equipment to maintain. I shouldn't be wasting time on what's long passed." "Captain-" "I also have to finish plotting this course. Thank you for your concern, Kata. Go to bed." The last signs were delivered with a sharpness that made Kata blink. She rose, but still hovered until Mio made shooing motions at her. As Kata left the Bridge, she heard Mio take up her tune again, but rather than the mournful sound from before it was upbeat and joyful. Kata smiled; glad, if confused, that her Captain was in better spirits than she'd been found.
