Set in Yokohama in 1963, this lovingly hand-drawn film centers on Umi (voiced by Sarah Bolger) and Shun (voiced by Anton Yelchin) and the budding romance that develops as they join forces to save their high school’s ramshackle clubhouse from demolition. Review: Rewatchable, underrated Ghibli gem. - This Ghibli offering is imbued with a sense of 'departed reality', which could be seen as nostalgia, but I don't think that it's as simple as that. One of the great things about these Miyazaki films (Hideo's lasting legacy) is the pleasure of minute observation. This is integrated into the storyline in a seamless way that is in itself very satisfying- its the real film maker's craft and you'll find it here in spades. If you liked 'Whisper of the Heart' then this is a development of the themes of personal development within the matrix of a bumpy love story but without the high art themes found in the earlier film. It's more down to earth with some historical concerns. It has great, well observed characters and some deeply felt moments. Review: A simply wonderful film. - This is about as far from an action film as you can get. However, there are plenty of other productions which will give you as much action and fantasy as you want, whereas a story which simply portrays the lives of ordinary Japanese people with such charm and sensitivity is quite rare, and few do it better than Ghibli. The plot centres around the activities of various young people, and their attempts to prevent their old clubhouse from being demolished to make way for a new one. The children are perceptively observed and inhabit a rich environment of beautiful artwork with marvellous attention to detail. There is considerable humour in this story, and some fascinating observations of ordinary Japanese culture. Do they really keep vegetables under the floorboards? The screenplay and direction is gentle and sympathetic and the apparently unremarkable story is raised out of the mundane by good dialogue and believable characters, whilst a romantic relationship with a twist develops between the two main protagonists. Needless to say, this charming film is quite suitable for all ages. Studio Ghibli has done it again. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00D48ZPR8 | | Best Sellers Rank | 33,974 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 12,365 in Blu-ray | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,266) | | Director | Goro Miyazaki | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Language | English, Japanese | | Manufacturer reference | 5055201823700 | | Number of discs | 2 | | Producers | Chizuru Takahashi, Geoffrey Wexler, Tetsurô Sayama, Toshio Suzuki | | Product Dimensions | 13.5 x 1.5 x 17.2 cm; 80 g | | Rated | Universal, suitable for all | | Release date | 23 Sept. 2013 | | Run time | 1 hour and 32 minutes | | Studio | Studiocanal | | Writers | Hayao Miyazaki, Keiko Niwa | ## Product Details - **Colour:** Colour - **Language:** English, Japanese - **Number of discs:** 2 - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 32 minutes ## Images ![From Up On Poppy Hill [Blu-ray] [Region B] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81VBFG6JfAL.jpg) ![From Up On Poppy Hill [Blu-ray] [Region B] - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91kmnywDd+L.jpg) ![From Up On Poppy Hill [Blu-ray] [Region B] - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/910MR3XfoLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rewatchable, underrated Ghibli gem. *by P***. on 26 November 2019* This Ghibli offering is imbued with a sense of 'departed reality', which could be seen as nostalgia, but I don't think that it's as simple as that.

What can I usefully add.. The music and songs are great (and may stick inside your head) and span many styles of Japanese music. I found it worth watching both English dubbed and subtitled Japanese versions, as the dubbed version is Americanized not only in language but in its characterization of the people (like: much more aggressive than the Japanese version); AND the two versions (dub/s.title) give a much fuller account of the Japanese original when combined. Finally, I love the detail of the animation, like: the way the mother closes her eyes briefly as she gets up before comforting her daughter; there's plenty of examples like this, and spotting them is entertaining as well as engrossing. I highly recommend this movie; it's one of the very best Ghibli movies, imo, if you are not looking for fantasy action animation. I have watched it many times. PS, photo is for Hecate, who wondered in her review whether Japanese really store vegetables in the floor. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/53137306-from-up-on-poppy-hill-blu-ray-region-b](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/53137306-from-up-on-poppy-hill-blu-ray-region-b) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
