10 Whimsical Howl’s Moving Castle Fan Art Pieces That Are Utterly Amazing

Howl’s Moving Castle is one of Studio Ghibli’s most popular works, with many fans claiming it is their favorite. The story is a wonderful fairytale about love, adventure, magic, and finding the inner beauty in all that is around.

Howl’s Moving Castle is a beautiful tale and follows characters that have become icons in the anime world. Howl, Sophie, and Calcifer make up the film, with their charming and unique personalities and how well each of them bounce off one another. Here are some amazing and whimsical pieces of fanart that perfectly showcase what the movie is all about.

10 A Heart Is A Heavy Burden

10 Whimsical Howl’s Moving Castle Fan Art Pieces That Are Utterly Amazing

This piece, done by MeTaa on DeviantArt, reinvents one of the most romantic scenes in the film: when Sophie gives Howl his heart back. MeTaa has made it so it appears like Howl and Sophie are falling from the sky together, with Howl’s wings nearly ready to swoop them up.

The way she looks at him is so deep and full of love and concern as Howl’s soft face comes back from being the corrupted beast he almost became.

9 The Lazy Wizard

This scene is a redraw from the moment in the film when Howl, as a pacifist, begs Sophie to attend the King’s summon in the disguise of his mother to tell the king how much of a coward he is so he won’t have to fight in the war.

Sophie contests Howl, but he uses his boyish charm to win her over in the end. Viewers can tell, just by his smile, that Howl is definitely up to something and has a plan up his sleeve, as he wins Sophie over with his bright eyes.

8 “I’m Sorry I Took So Long.”

Another redraw of one of the most famous scenes from the film – the kiss. After Sophie watches Howl’s memory of how he and Calcifer made a deal and how Howl lost his heart, Sophie begged the young Howl to meet her once again in the future. There is a theory (more like realization) that this could be the reason why Howl saves Sophie at the beginning of the film and says, “I was looking everywhere for you.” Because he actually has.

Once Sophie comes back from the memory, Howl is waiting for her, totally devoid of emotion and expression. His powers have taken over so much, making him become a beast and shell of what he once was. @Meyoco has also captured this moment beautifully and added glowing little stars around the two characters, adding a whimsical charm to this already beautiful scene.

7 “Now I’ve Got Something I Want To Protect. It’s You.”

The colors in this fanart done by @MingjueChen on Instagram are absolutely amazing, adding a level of magical essence to this piece that speaks for itself.

Howl’s determined face seems like he knows exactly what is about to happen, as he defends Sophie from the war that is plaguing their society. Sophie’s long braid and the way it moves, along with Howl’s feathers that perfectly surround her, make the movement of this picture feel totally alive.

6 Howl Jenkins

Howl, Calcifer, and the castle make for the perfect combination in this fanart piece done by Instagram user, @Helium_Raven. The artist managed to perfectly capture Howl’s essence at the beginning of the film. He was suave and mysterious but something about him was totally alluring.

Here, he wears his coat around his shoulders like in the film and his hair and necklace blow in the wind. He has his castle behind him and his heart in his hand.

5 Laundry Day

Awanqi from Art Station has made a truly beautiful piece that perfectly grabs the peaceful, romantic, and happy life Sophie and Howl are sure to have after the events of the film. Sophie is doing the laundry, as she probably still occasionally feels like the maid of the house, making sure everyone is happy and content in their clean environments.

Howl leans in to kiss her sweetly under the cover of the sheets as he holds onto the hair that looks like starlight. The colors in this piece are absolutely amazing and soft, adding so much romance and fluff to the scene.

4 Their First Meeting

Another redraw of another amazing and famous scene – after Howl rescues Sophie from some pretty forward officers and then directly after from some henchmen of the Witch of the Waste, Howl whisks Sophie into the sky and shows her some of his magic. The two walk on air together as he holds her hands and assures her that she is doing wonderfully.

Their first encounter was pretty romantic and definitely left Sophi a bit starstruck.

3 A Dance

This piece by @sekhr0w0 is amazing, as it is able to capture both Sophie’s and Howl’s expressions as the pair dance in the dark corners of the castle. Sophie’s face looks happy and pleasant – she is enjoying dancing with Howl as much as he enjoys dancing with her.

Due to the coloring and art style of the piece, it almost feels like its right out of a fairytale book. The lines in Sophie’s hair to divide the strands and the pale yet dark colors make it feel totally whimsical and romantic like they are dancing behind the curtain, having a moment for themselves.

2 The Witch, The Wizard, And The Maid

This amazing piece totally captures the film and its story wonderfully. It has Sophie, young and old. It has the castle and Turnip Head with the falling stars (which we later learn are little demons like Calcifer) behind it. The Witch of the Waste can be seen with a devilish smile, hidden in the shadows. The artist even showcases the memory of a Young Howl as he makes his deal with Calcifer, giving the fire demon his heart.

And in the middle of it all, Howl and Sophie hold hands, smiling at one another totally in love. Howl has his hand wrapped around Sophie’s waist, bringing her in as close as possible as they seemingly float through the air.

1 Starlight

For the final piece on this list, Yuukia Jia from Art Station has given fans this totally amazing and utterly beautiful piece of Howl and Sophie. The piece is called “Starlight In You” and it not only exemplifies the color of Sophie’s hair but also surrounds them with the night sky.

Sophie holds a few stars in her hand that shine brightly and beautifully against Howl and Sophie’s faces. The moon behind them paints an image that makes them feel as if they are in a world of their own. Howl reaches for a star in Sophie’s hair as the two look deeply into each other’s eyes with expressions of pure adoration.
