Howl's Moving Castle got turned into an anime by Miyazaki & Studio Ghibli - and in a short answer - No. Both Miyazaki & DWJ are magical, but I feel that the elements that he added to his version of the film overlooked what made the book so special - Sophie and her journey. The romance in the anime seemed a little bit tacked - on while in the book it was just bubbling under the surface, and while the anime is a beautiful piece of film, it's not how I imagined HMC to be. Calcifer was too cute, for one thing.
