****If it helps any, it says that "true love" broke his curse but it didn't say what, precisely, that ''true love'' had to be, so, m'yhaps Sophie's friendship broke his curse?

** And while the film doesn't outright say Sophie is a witch, there are moments where she seems to display some kind of powers, even if they aren't explained. The biggest moment is when she's able to make Calcifer power up using her hair. Going off her lines in the English version, she seems to accept being turned old very quickly and is constantly coming up with reasons why it's not that bad ("at least my clothes suit me now"). But she first properly turns back young at a moment where she needs to be - running up the stairs to check on Howl, and in the third act when everything is going to hell around her. So it could be her magic taking over the spell as it does in the book, just not explained.

** Well didn't Sophie say to find her in the future to get help? And what's Howl's first line to her when they meet? "I've been looking for you". So of course he'd be prepared to set up a situation where Sophie could travel to his past and help him in the future - [[StableTimeLoop because it's already happened]].
Changed line(s) 71 (click to see context) from:

** Yes, definitely. Calcifer repeatedly singles Sophie out - as her hair gives him more strength, and only she can give Howl back his heart without killing Calcifer too. This is more fanon but it seems as though magic entities can sense each other in this universe - Calcifer knows straight away that Sophie is cursed, the scarecrow gets attached to her, and the Witch of the Wastes goes straight for her.

*** Another theory could be that Howl was ever anything but attracted to a pretty face, and would only fancy himself in love on the 'want what you don't have' cliche;. As for Lettie, he really was courting her, at first, it was only after he became intrigued by Sophie's spell that his attentions moved on to information about Sophie. And really, Howl was only ever after the challenge of the thing. He came to admire much more about Sophie, but it was the spell and her own magic, and the way everything was all mixed up that initially drew him to her.

What about the curse on Howl? He wasn't born a monster as he appears or else I don't feel Madame Suliman would have taught him,
I'm thinking some sort of curse caused him to be this way, and the more he acts as a monster (killing etc.) the more he turns into this bird monster. Madame Suliman might have been the one to place this curse on him, and this might be why he is against fighting in the war, because the more he fights (kills) the more he turns into this beast, in an attempt to control him.
