Looks like that Amino is members-only . Would you be able to give a summary of that theory for us?
Love too! The various Studio Ghibli films can be sorted into different universes and timelines thus...
Ghibli Prime(This timeline contains the big setpieces of Studio Ghibli. Like reality except for magic, floating cities and fox squirrels)-Tale of Princess Kaguya(Heian jidai), Princess Mononoke(Muromachi/Azuchi-Momoyama/Sengoku jidai), Castle in the Sky(c. 1910s-20s), and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind manga(far future) The Nausicaä movie is a propaganda film in-universe
Nickelodeon Avatar(These Ghibli movies are set in the universe of Nickelodeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender and Avatar: The Legend of Korra)-My Neighbor Totoro(c. 240 AG), and Spirited Away(about twenty years after Totoro)
Planetos(The A Song of Ice and Fire universe I just called Planetos because Wynaut. There is an undiscovered continent east of Essos and west of Westeros called Meridiania where the events of Kiki's Delivery Service, Disney's Bolt, and Little Witch Academia happen. Also, as you can tell this timeline's/universe's existence is based on wishful thinking.)-Kiki's Delivery Service(about sixty years before the War of the Five Kings)
Ghibli alt(This universe is pretty much identical to ours. All the contemporary era/historical fiction pieces fit here.)-The Wind Rises(1930s-40s), Grave of the Fireflies(World War II), From Up on Poppy Hill(1963), Ocean Waves(1990s), Only Yesterday(1990s), Whisper of the Heart(1994), My Neighbors the Yamadas(1990s), and When Marnie was There(2010s(even though the book is likely set in 1967)) The Cat Returns is Shizuku Tsukishima's story existing in this universe as fiction.
The Borrowers(The universe where Mary Norton's The Borrowers is set in)-Arrietty. The Borrowers books exist in-universe as science textbooks.
Earthsea(The universe of Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea)-The Tales from Earthsea film exists in-universe as propaganda meant as slander to Cob.
Howl's Moving Castle(The universe of Diana Wynne Jones' Howl's Moving Castle)-The Howl's Moving Castle film exists in-universe as a biopic of Howell's Ingarian alter ego Howl.
Unsorted-Porco Rosso, Pom Poko, and Ponyo.
