What happens when you mix Studio Ghibli and bento? A whole lot of delectable cuteness! These bento creators put a lot of time, effort, and creativity into each of these bento, and the results are no less than fantastic.
6. Chihiro (Spirited Away)

This little bento looks like it sprang out of some fields with little Chihiro in it! The cut-out texture of the carrot makes it look quite like her uniform in the movie, aside from the color change!
5. Snoring Totoro (My Neighbor Totoro)

This bento perfectly captures the Totoro look—the big, open mouth, large belly and little sleeping Totoros next to him. You can really hear him snore just by looking at this!
4. Ponyo

Studio Ghibli never stops creating masterpieces, and Ponyo was no exception. This bento pulls the same response as Ponyo did in the actual movie: "Aww!"
3. Jiji (Kiki’s Delivery Service)

Jiji’s most prominent feature is his massive, wide eyes, which will help you on your adventure. Of course, the proper nutrients in the vegetables help, too!
2. Howl (Howl’s Moving Castle)

Howl is a very good-looking character, and this bento does him justice. His hair is always flowing in the wind and the side vegetables almost look like flowers from his secret garden valley!
1. Nausicaä (Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind)
blogs.yahoo.co.jp
The color and texture on this Ghibli favorite are just perfect. The shredded tamago (egg) appearing to be just barely billowing in the wind is a sweet final touch to one of Studio Ghibli’s most treasured classics!
0. Totoro Bread (My Neighbor Totoro)

Why restrict yourself to bento? There’s never enough Totoro in life, so satiate yourself with some Totoro bread. Maybe there are little marshmallows inside to make it a snack after your Totoro bento!
