The moon, round, hung high in the sky like a silver disk. Under the moonlight, people who have been busy all day have already gone to sleep. But in the depths of the sea, far from the land, there was another scene: the creatures of the sea were in their own world, competing with each other. A red-haired man stood on a flying fish submarine with huge colorful bubbles feeding the jellyfish and other fish that surrounded him and directing the creatures with lights. The porthole of the submarine opened, and silently, out of it poked a reddish head, with a pair of large eyes on a round face inquiring mischievously about the surroundings, and suddenly, leapt out of the porthole. Oh, it was a lovely sphinx. Swaying her crimson skirt to avoid the sight of her father, Fujimoto, the red-haired man, the sphinx quickly left the submarine and burrowed underneath a jellyfish, which took her for another ride on the back of a giant jellyfish ......

At sunrise, the jellyfish floated to the surface with the sphinx on board. Waking up with a start, the sphinx opened her eyes and saw a house built on a cliff by the sea: the red roof was even more conspicuous surrounded by green plants. Suddenly, the sphinx's eyes widened: she saw a young boy walk out of the house. "Sousuke, come back soon oh." A young woman's figure appeared in the window. "Probably his mom instructing him?" Sphinx thought darkly. "That little boy's name is Sousuke? What is he going to do?" As he was wondering, a ship sailed by. In an attempt to escape, the sphinx and the jellyfish were separated. The sphinx didn't get far before it was pulled in by the ship's trawl along with all the garbage on the shallow seabed. Unfortunately, a glass bottle covered her head. No matter how much she struggled, it was all in vain. The sphinx could only escape from the net with the bottle on its head.

The sphinx swam as hard as she could towards the shore, and before long, she was exhausted. Luckily, she meets Sousuke, who is here to play with his model boat. Seeing the strange glass bottle on the beach, Sousuke picks it up and suddenly, his eyes widen in amazement, "It's a goldfish!" It must be hard for the fish to be stuck in the bottle, right? How should I save her? Sousuke could only crack the bottle with a rock, then carefully held up the fish, "Dead?" He muttered to himself. Unexpectedly the motionless goldfish suddenly stuck out its tongue and licked at Sousuke's hand. "Still alive!" Sousuke was overjoyed. He ran home quickly with the fish and the boat in his hands and put the fish in a bucket of water. Inadvertently, Sousuke realized that the fish had magical powers: the wound on his hand that she had licked actually healed! He quickly fell in love with the mischievous and cute sphinx, and gave her a nice name - Ponyo.

Ponyo's Wish

Sousuke brings Ponyo to Sunflower House, an old people's home where his mom Risa works. The old people are happy to see that Sousuke has brought a new friend. Only Grandma Toki thinks that Ponyo is an ominous thing: "Once a sphinx comes ashore, there will be a tsunami, long ago." She was still chattering uncontrollably when Ponyo got upset and she nonchalantly sprayed a mouthful of water at Grandma Toki, scaring her. Trouble again! Sousuke lifted the bucket and ran until he reached the reef of the ocean, he swore down to Ponyo, Don't worry, I'll protect you. "Sousuke." Suddenly, Ponyo spoke. Sousuke's eyes widened in surprise. "Ponyo, Sousuke, like." Ponyo finished, flipping her heels in the bucket of water. "I like you too." Sousuke smiled happily, and not far away, a red head was staring at them. It turned out to be Ponyo's father, Fujimoto.

Since his daughter disappeared, Fujimoto was anxious, and it took a few tries to find out that she had originally gone ashore. In order to save his daughter, Fujimoto from time to time looking for an opportunity, and now, the opportunity has finally come. Fujimoto used magic to change the waves, and went ashore to roll away Ponyo.

With Ponyo gone, Sousuke mopes around all day. Back in the sea, Ponyo is just as unhappy. She misses the time she spent with Sousuke, refuses the food her father gives her, and yells at him that she wants to eat ham and become human. Fujimoto is horrified, and out of prejudice against his former kind, Fujimoto, who is also human, decides to stop her. Ponyo's body begins to change because she has licked the human blood from Sousuke's hands. When Ponyo cheers, "Hands out, feet out!" Fujimoto panicked, he tightly pressed down on the bubble covering Ponyo and couldn't stop chanting incantations under his breath, finally, changing Ponyo back to her original form. However, Fujimoto knew that he could only control the situation temporarily, and he had to invite back Ponyo's mother, the Mother of the Ocean, in order to maintain the previous calm.

Confined in a bubble, Ponyo falls asleep under the spell. Her siblings take advantage of their father's absence to come to Ponyo's side and use their collective power to awaken her. The awakened Ponyo grows up quickly and regrows her arms and legs. "I'm going to Sousuke's." She told her siblings. But the way out was blocked by the waves. As she struggles with the waves, Ponyo's path to escape becomes a path to disaster.

The winds lashed the land with torrential rain, and huge waves lashed the embankment ferociously and kept coming up to the land. In the midst of the storm, Risa takes Sousuke on a drive home. Suddenly, Sousuke realizes that at the tip of the wave, a small red dot is chasing them. As Risa pulled up to her house, Sousuke realized that the little red dot turned out to be Ponyo. "Ponyo is back as a little girl!" The two little dots hugged excitedly.

A dream come true

Human life was all new to Ponyo. She instantly fell in love with this home. After dinner, Ponyo fell asleep and the sea gradually calmed down. Risa was uneasy about the old people in the old people's home and decided to drive back to Sunflower House alone. After watching his mom drive away, Sousuke returns to Ponyo's side. The two children are asleep on the sofa. Fujimoto, who had come after them, was shocked to see through the window that Ponyo had become human. At that moment, a seven-colored light passes over the sea; it's the Mother of the Ocean returning! Fujimoto busy back to the flying fish submarine, to the mother of the ocean confessed his concern: "Ponyo randomly messed with magic, in the world opened up a big hole, she does not know what she is doing, but also turned into a human, if this continues, the world will be destroyed ah!" "Just turn Ponyo directly into a human. As long as the boy doesn't change his heart, Ponyo can lose her magic and turn into a human." The Mother of the Ocean's proposal surprised Fujimoto, "But if that method fails, Ponyo will turn into a bubble." "We were originally bred from foam." The Mother of the Ocean was frank and open-minded.

Ponyo and Sousuke woke up. Outside the house, the blue sky and white clouds, the sea is unusually calm. Only, on the calm sea, only Sousuke's home stands alone. Everything around it was flooded, and Risa wondered what happened to her? Sousuke worried about his mom's safety, "A boat would be nice." He muttered to himself. "There's a boat!" Ponyo pointed to Sousuke's tiny model boat, which she made bigger with her magic, and then, together with Sousuke, put that boat in the water. Taking food and water with them, the two set off.

Along the way, Ponyo and Sousuke saw people who were moving to inns on the mountain. On their faces, they don't see the frustration of the disaster, but only the understanding and help of each other.

Sousuke saw Risa's car, but there was no sign of her. Sousuke was so anxious that he cried.

On the highway flooded with seawater, there is a large bubble in which the Sunflower House is wrapped. The old people who had been in wheelchairs were all walking fast and cheering in the bubble, looking at the sea animals outside the bubble, happy as children.

Sousuke and Ponyo traveled all the way through a cave when an accident happened and Ponyo turned back into a fish and, moreover, fainted. Sousuke rushed out of the cave and put Ponyo back into the bucket. As he is sadly calling out for Ponyo, Fujimoto appears. He tells Sousuke and Ponyo to come with him to the bubble. Seeing this, Grandma Toki, who is standing in the pavilion, is busy telling Sousuke that Fujimoto is lying to them. In order to save Sousuke, Grandma Toki falls into the sea water with Sousuke and Ponyo.

A school of red, red fish swarmed over Grandma Toki and Sousuke and sent them into the bubble. After understanding Sousuke's heart, the Mother of the Ocean took back Ponyo's magic and collected her in a bubble in her palm and gave it to Sousuke: "When you return to land, just give her a kiss and she'll turn into a girl five years old like you." After saying goodbye to everyone, the Mother of the Ocean left with her children.

The sea had receded and everything was back to normal. The old men returned to land, and Fujimoto handed Sousuke's model ship to him personally, and the two shook hands. Ponyo's bubble finally turns into a little girl after kissing Sousuke.
