add recLandlock and Now and Then, Here and There have similar animation styles and themes. Both feature a war where the ruler will exploit any resource to win, even kids. Now and Then, Here and There is longer, and has more social commentary, while Landlock is more geared toward entertainment, but I think if you enjoyed one, you will enjoy the other.

One night a large airship containing one of the Giant Warriors crashes into the valley. The following day soldiers from the powerful nation of Tolmekia invade the Valley of the Wind to reclaim and revive the warrior. As the only one who truly believes that there is a way for humans to live alongside the insects, Nausicaa must find a way to stop the war that now threatens her people and protect the Toxic Jungle before the Tolmekians burn it to the ground.
