 This article
  talks about a variety of Studio Ghilbi films, though it doesn’t focus much on
  Princess Mononoke, it does reference it a few times and comments on Princess
  Mononoke female protagonist’s strength and appearance as well as comparing
  her to Disney's Brave female protagonists.    
 "strong female characters who are not tied in to fairy-tale narratives" “Appears on the poster not in an hourglass dress but with a knife in her hand and blood staining her mouth.”  | 
  
   I'm considering comparing Disney and
  Studio Ghibli's female protagnists as a part of my research. Although it
  isn't directly related to my title, I think it might be useful to support
  Studio Ghibli's representation of femininity. |

This article comments
  on the lack of female roles in Pixar and Disney. Also, it talks about how the
  female protagonists are represented and there female qualities 
"almost all of
  them led by strong, intelligent, independent-minded girls" 
 "They are adventurous and active, but
  also compassionate, communicative, pacifist and virtuous. Their
  "female" qualities and childish innocence are often what resolve
  the crisis at hand and bridge conflicting worlds" 
  "Helen McCarthy, a British author who
  has written extensively on Miyazaki and Japanese animation. "By making
  the hero a girl, he took all that macho stuff out of the equation and that
  gave him the freedom to examine heroism. His career has been a very beautiful
  building of an idea that the feminine doesn't preclude the heroic."

This article makes a
  few good points about studio ghibli protagonists and which I may use to talk
  about how their feminie qualities are portrayed and how they’re strong
  characters still.
