Die junge Frau Sophie wird von der Hexe des Niemandslandes, die auf Sophie eifersüchtig ist, mit einem Fluch belegt, der sie in eine alte Frau verwandelt.

Sophie freundet sich mit Calcifer, einem Feuerdämon, der das Schloss mit seiner Energie antreibt und durch einen Vertrag an Hauro gebunden ist, an.

Derweil verliebt sich Hauro, der den Fluch ebenfalls erkennen kann, in Sophie.

Howl was crazy mad when Sophie changed his hair color by mistake, he nearly killed himself… then he just forgot about it?

Sophie for some reason becomes younger a few times and there is no given explanation for this… is the curse malfunctioning or what?

Saliman commanded the war and wanted to capture Howl… until she changed her mind about it and just ended the war, stopped looking for Howl like nothing happened.

Sophie must really be into kissing. The Witch? Kissed. The Scarecrow? Kissed. Calcifer? You guessed it… kissed

If the animation wasn’t good I would give it 2/10
