Plot
During a forbidden excursion to see the surface world, a goldfish princess encounters a human boy named Sosuke, who gives her the name Ponyo. Ponyo longs to become human, and as her friendship with Sosuke grows, she becomes more humanlike. Ponyo's father brings her back to their ocean kingdom, but so strong is Ponyo's wish to live on the surface that she breaks free, and in the process, spills a collection of magical elixirs that endanger Sosuke's village.
Why Anything is Possible

- Sōsuke is an incredible protagonist, his friendship with Ponyo is much superior in the film.
- Lisa, while also a good mom to Sōsuke gets an incredible performance from Tina Fey in the English dub.
- The ending shot when Sōsuke kisses Ponyo, turning her back into a human.
- "Ponyo loves Sōsuke"
Bad Qualities
