Mononokehime with touches of Howl.

I don't like this as much as Wall-E, but more than any other Pixar movie I've seen, include much more than Up (which was infuriating from the premise on). I especially liked that we finally got a mother-daughter relationship movie where both sides had to grow-and-change within it, and the acknowledgment of political consequences for personal decisions of people in inherently political position. (The resolution of those consequences was, for me, the weakest part of the story, but at least it tried.)

I liked it quite a lot.
