The Most Satisfying Puzzles I’ve Ever Done in my Life 

What do you all think? Would you try these puzzles? I'm so happy this sponsorship worked out, because I honestly loved these puzzles so much 🥰

It seems fitting that Studio Ghibli puzzles are both immensely satisfying and super high quality. Because of course they are.

I live in Japan and just wanted to comment that the stained glass puzzles have more than just Ghibli for those of you who want to try them. They have them for basically everything. Pokemon, Disney, anime and more. The Disney ones are sold under their own brand but I have put together a Stitch one, a Marie one and a Nightmare Before Christmas one. Not only have I done most of the Ghibli minis, but similar to the 1000 piece Totoro style - they have 300 to 500 piece versions if you don’t want one quite as big. I have also done a Sailor Moon one, an Eevee Evolution one and Nezuko from Kimetsu no Yaiba. I am not sure how readily available the others are in America, but a mini runs about 800yen and the 300 piece ones are around 2300 yen give or take (they often go on sale here though so I get them cheaper) All but Disney are sold under the brand ‘Ensky’ in Japanese. It might not be very English friendly, but they do have a website with all of them. Most of you may have saw in the video but just in case I did want to add the the Artboard Jigsaw (the plastic one) is made by Pintoo. So if you have ever done a Pintoo puzzle its the same pieces. Again, they have a variety of anime and Disney for this style. Also, even though they are Pintoo puzzles they are sold by Ensky in Japan. From what I can gather, Pintoo makes them and Japan distributes them. Pintoo also make ‘mame’ (bean) puzzles from a variety of anime, they are micro puzzles and only 150 pieces. Those run about 1200 yen and the artboard ones are typically in the 3500 yen range. The only thing I cannot confirm is if the Disney plastic canvas ones are Pintoo or not, I have seen them in the store but never looked too closely or done one myself. Hope this helps anyone who is interested in them ❤

These are really high quality. They way the pieces snapped is so satisfying.

I’ve done three of the small (208 pieces) and I love them. The click when you attach the pieces is even exciting. I didn’t realize there was a 1000-piece puzzle, so that’s now on my list. Thank you, Karen!

I just completed my own one thousand piece puzzle and I honestly thought it would take me ages but I followed your strategy of flipping the pieces all over and separating it by texture and it made it so much easier. So thank you from this amateur puzzler

I was expecting to be shocked by the prices but for the quality you're getting they're really not that bad. Definitely a little more expensive than cardboard puzzles but that's to be expected. Definitely going to look in to getting some of the smaller ones.

Let’s just say that this video is all about the textural chemistry. That coupled with Studio Ghibli characters and we have hit the jackpot.

My favourite Ghibli movie is Kaguya Hime Monogatari, breath-takingly beautiful work by Isao Takahata. The art style, the thoughtful digging into Japanese folklore and a modern, humanist interpretation of it, the music. A true Japanese artpiece, a gem. It took 13 years to made, and is Mr. Takahata's last work.

Sponsored by Bandai Namco!! That's great to see my favorite puzzler being sponsored by one of my favorite companies. Hearing the puzzle snap was very Satisfying. "Prepare to puzzle!"

I love Kiki's delivery service! Even named our cat Jiji ( he is JUST like his namesake )

Howl's Moving Castle is easily my favorite Ghibli movie. I find it very satisfying!

Movie theaters nationwide are currently having Studio Ghibli Fest! Once a month a different Ghibli film will be shown multiple days ( except for August which has 3 films).

So so so happy you’ve shared “stained glass” puzzles from Japan!!! FIVE years ago, I found a 1,000-piece Disney classics by Tenyo and it led me to your channel. I absolutely adore it and seeing you tape the ones you did to a window solved my oh-whatever-am-I-gonna-do-with-this-lovely-thing? Colour me SATISFYINGly content, Karen. You are, like Tina Turner sings, “Simply the best!” Happy Hawaiian Hugz!🧡 🌋 💛 🤙🏽 ❤️ 🌺 P.S. Oooh oooh oooh-can you *imagine* a gradient in translucent plastic?!?!?

Alright you've convinced me that I need these puzzles in my life! They look so incredibly satisfying! 😍 Edit: I ordered the 1000 piece along with a couple of the 126 and 208 piece ones. So excited to work on them!

Good thing with these is that you don’t have to start by flipping 1000 pieces, you’re good to go right away! So satisfying!

I've seen these before but i didn't expect them to hold together so well. I just wish whoever manufactured these made non Ghibli puzzles. I'm not an anime person and am not in to displaying fan stuff in my home but these look great and i would love some puzzles in this style that i would actually want to have displayed

I was talking about this video to my roommate and they surprised me by buying me one of the 126 piece puzzles! You’re right - the click of the pieces is EXTREMELY satisfying!! Sending puzzle love from Wisconsin! 😊❤

I love that "snap" when you place a puzzle piece !!

Okay the matching of the beat with the click at 5:05 was so satisfying

Another really fun and pretty puzzle is the Ravensburger ‘The Four Seasons’. It looks like a traditional Japanese painting and it’s soo pretty and satisfying to make

I don't really do puzzles all that often, but I still love watching your videos because they're calm and relaxing. But watching these particular puzzles go together and then get hung on the windows...it's just so satisfying. To the point that I think I'm actually considering purposefully searching one out to make.

I feel like the canvas puzzle would be perfect for Katie! 😄

I actually went out and bought a couple of the smaller art crystal puzzles when you first mentioned them because they looked so satisfying. They were perfect for a small, self-contained activity for relieving my stress around the winter holidays! My favorite Studio Ghibli film is probably Howl's Moving Castle, so I was disappointed that it wasn't really represented in the puzzles I saw...but the other images are still very cute!!

That Totoro puzzle is absolutely beautiful.

Wow, this is perfect timing. My 4th anniversary is coming up and the traditional gift is fruit or flowers. I've been struggling for weeks to find something I think my husband will enjoy. When I saw the first puzzle I immediately thought this is it! He loves puzzles and Studio Ghibli, and several of the ones you did today feature flowers prominently. It will be so satisfying seeing his face when he opens his present!

Starting small and working up to large is the way in life to go as well in puzzles, thanks Karen this video has kicked off my Sunday!.

Such a satisfying click/snap when they lock together.

That clicking noise is so satisfying! 😮 My favorite Ghibli movie is by far Spirited Away. If you haven’t seen that one, I highly recommend it 😊

I don’t know what Studio Ghibli is, but omg are those puzzles cool! All the clicks when snapping the pieces together and the beautiful colors, especially on the 1000 piece…so SATISFYING to see it get put together and then placed in the window. Very cool concept. Thanks for sharing this, Karen!

Love these! Def going to buy them, I love Ghibli. My cat, Jiji, is named after the Kiki's Delivery Service cat lol. She's watching these w/me rn, she rates these 4/4 paws

"Right now the puzzle has no edge" *Hank Green intensifies*

Karen + Ghibli + innovative, quality puzzles = a very satisfying video. I wonder what they look like on top of a whitebox...

Loved these puzzles!! Kiki’s delivery service is my favorite studio Ghibli film! Loved seeing so many puzzles with Jiji (the cat) he’s so cute :)

My favourite Ghibli movie is Laputa castle in the sky.

To display your puzzle on your low window sill, I suggest stacking a few books on top of each other, and then placing the jigsaw picture on top. Add a plant etc beside it for a cosy look and some greenery.

Those pieces snapping into place is sooooo satisfying.

Pretty puzzles, and they look fairly cat proof too (for people that have kitties that enjoy puzzling as much as you do ) ☺️

I would love a studio Gibley puzzle that’s just beautiful landscapes seen in the movies. Maybe a iconic screen grab

Those Acrylic snaps And the entire picture itself 😌💚!!!

🤯 a folding puzzle!? That’s genius! Love the stained glass effect ❤

Yes!! I've been waiting for you to solve Studio Ghibli puzzles! These puzzles are so beautiful 😍

I loved the mini puzzles. I have a little brother. He's 6 and he started to show interest in puzzles, like me. I bought him 2 48 piece puzzle and he is obsessed with it. I was worried that it'll be difficult to solve but he made both of them in less than 3 hours . I would love to have one each and solve them with him

This was so satisfying to watch! Everything, from the artwork to the quality of the puzzle pieces, just makes you smile!

Spirited Away is my all time favorite Ghibli movie. There are so many lovely ones. I have put together the Spirited Away mini puzzle and I found a little glass frame for it, too. I did not know they made a special frame for them!

Thanks for reviewing these! I never would have known these even existed but as soon as I saw them I thought they'd make a great present for my brother since he loves puzzles and Studio Ghibli movies. I gave him the 1000 piece Totoro Season's Tidings puzzle for Christmas and we put it together today. It was fun to make and looks beautiful. My brother loves that it looks like stained glass!

The looking sound SO satisfying! My favourite Ghibli film is Princess Mononoke. ❤

These puzzles have wonderful snappy sounds.

Yay! I’m so happy you finally tried these super satisfying puzzles! I’ve only done the mini ones and love them! I find myself going back to them again and again. I’ve been eyeing the bigger ones for awhile now…

Satisfying, indeed! I bought a couple of the small ones and the medium one a year or two ago, but never put them together. These are so much more beautiful than I realized! I might get more as gifts for my parents. ❤

I have one if these puzzles and they're AMAZING!! They snap together so tight it basically won't come undone unless you make it come undone.

Never heard of Ghibli but the puzzles do look so satisfying to build.

Oh my goodness. They have very good designs. They're all sectioned very well. I'm glad you had fun

These would be the perfect puzzles for those of us with a problem with puzzle dust!

That crunchy crunch was SO GOOD!

Aw yes I gave the "kiki's" puzzle to a friend, it was really fun to put together! I think I'm going to buy one for myself to hang in my office window!

I just gasped out loud at your thumbnail. These look amazing

i LOVE ponyo. its such a satisfying movie

Wow! Those puzzles are amazing. Especially when they did a stain glass look to them when they are finished.

If you have an old fashioned light box, these would be incredible!

Princess Mononoke is probs my favourite

The sound of putting the pieces in place is so satisfying for whatever reason lol. It's the plastic on plastic sound or whatever.

I’ve done some of the smaller Ghibli ones before and really enjoyed them. And a Ghibli puzzle of any sort is calming to put together, just because of the pictures! I’m really looking forward to seeing you work on the Ten Hundred puzzle when that comes out!

these are my dream puzzles. My Neighbor Totoro is one of my all-time favorite films.

ive never seen such wonderful puzzles. they got every single redeeming feature of a puzzle and put it in one. AND created a self-framing mega-satisfying post-puzzle activity. madness

The clicking of the puzzle pieces together and how well they held up when lifted was satisfying

Satisfying. My daughter saw these and I have placed my order. We love them.

Those puzzles looks so Satisfying

Another comment regarding the quality of the puzzles. That´s Japan in general. They make unbelievable things, some extremely convenient and with high quality.

Choosing a favorite from all the amazing movies that Studio Ghibli had released is very difficult, but Princess Mononoke takes my #1 spot!

So beautiful and satisfying! I love how they snap when the pieces come together.❤

These puzzles look amazing! ❤ looks like fun puzzles to complete!

The puzzle pieces being snapped into place sounds so much like my back at the chiropractor 😊

omg these are so cute and beautiful!! Absolutely adding these to my to-buy list. Seems like such great gift ideas too!

Ordered. Excited. Thanks Karen!!! Looks SO satisfying.

oh these are super cool! being able to hang them up or display them as like a canvas thing is really nice!

They look so stunning! Thanks for sharing!!!

Your joy was so evident with this puzzles. Wonderful and satisfying video!

I had a Sunday schedule change, so I get to these a little earlier. So satisfying! I really can’t think of another channel where I’m in the middle of an activity, knowing the video is out, and I can’t wait to get home and watch it!

the other thing I like ~100 piece puzzles for is after I complete puzzles with 1500 pieces or more. just relaxing with a beautiful small puzzle after a beautiful huge puzzle is so nice

An ASMRist should really get one of these puzzles to do because it sounds quite nice and looks very satisfying

I love the mini puzzles, so beautiful and cute. Also cool that you can display them so easily. I would totaly do these.

I love the concept of these puzzles. I love the way they hold together and the look of stained glass. I am definitely going to try them. Thank you Karen

Wow, they all look so beautiful. Amazing value.

I’ve had these puzzles on my wishlist forever! Good to know they’re good quality

The puzzles are beautiful! I’ve never seen any of the movies, but I’ve heard about them from two other RU-vidrs that I follow. Such a satisfying video!

Its are so satisfying to see the puzzles come together into a perfect fit.

Gotta say, it made me really happy to see that you were doing the Studio Ghibli puzzles for this video. I spent part of my Thanksgiving weekend with my niece last year solving two of the mini puzzles since my niece recently got into puzzle solving. These puzzles are really pretty and nice to have on display.

I don't have the patience to do puzzles, so people who solve puzzles are really cool to me! Awesome!!!!😆😆😆😆

Gorgeous puzzles and the sound...!!..

Crunchy and beautiful!

I’m a big Studio Ghibli fan!! I need all of these!

Ghibli movies are so satisfying! Some of my other favorites are Spirited Away, Castle in the Sky, and Howl's Moving Castle, but there are so many other good ones. I've tried a few of these plastic puzzles, but I definite have to be in the right mood for them.

That was one of best videos you have ever done in my opinion, very satisfying to watch you do all those beautiful puzzles Karen. 😊

They look soooooo satisfying! ❤ I love all the Studio Ghibli movies and would love to have all of these puzzles (the big Totoru one goes straight to my wishlist for the next celebration!🎉)

Yay! Love it. Ponyo, Totoro and Kiki's, Howl's Moving Castle are my fav

WOW. The way those pieces fit so snug with each other and click into place is so SATISFYING. I imagine your thumb would get sore after pushing all those pieces in place on those puzzles you did Karen. The canvas style one looks like a box top. You just need another one to make the bottom and make a cardboard frame that they can fit back to back onto. LOL

Yesss I love these puzzles, I've collected them for a few years now!

Those puzzles were so satisfying 😁 Your videos put me in a calm state of mind. Thank you for being you! 😊

These puzzles are so beautiful - I bet they'd make amazing gifts too!
