How long to watch every Studio Ghibli film
about 39 hours 30 minutes
22 feature films
The Studio Ghibli feature catalogue runs about 39 hours 30 minutes across 22 films. Two of those are contested: The Red Turtle is a European co-production rather than an in-house Ghibli film, and excluding it gives 21 films and 2,290 minutes; Earwig and the Witch premiered on Japanese television rather than in cinemas. Hayao Miyazaki has directed only eleven of them and has retired at least five times. The films average about 108 minutes, and none exceeds 137.
