Line 30:
* [[Flight]]: This is a [[Hayao Miyazaki]] film, so you know the man will find ''some'' way of sneaking flight in here. Totoro has a [[Everything's Better with Spinning|spinning top]] which he can hop on to fly. The girls can then jump on his tummy, and be taken for a flight.
* [[Ghibli Hills]]: The Ur-example from the one and only [[Trope Namers|Trope Namer]], prominent around the house Mei and Satsuki moves into.
* [[Ghibli Plains]]: Featured in many shots into the distance with farmland. There is a smaller version of Ghibli Plains around Mei and Satsuki's house. Scenes with Totoro usually go into [[Ghibli Hills]] territory.
** Around 18 minutes into the film, Ghibli Plains are shown at night when Satsuki gathers firewood. A strong wind blows across these plains, sending blades of grass waving and little bits of firewood flying.
* [[Good Parents]]: Professor Kusakabe is probably the nicest Dad in anime. He's always patient, and likes playing with his daughters. He believes the girls when they tell him about Totoro, and even takes them to a shine and tells them about the forest spirits.
* [[Happy Ending]]: {{spoiler|Mei was found; she and Satsuki rides to the hospital in the Catbus. They leave a single corn for their mum, sees that she is okay, and rides home in the Catbus while the [[Title Theme Tune]] is playing.}}
