    I’m Italian, I was born in 1974 and I just realized that most of the cartoons and series I watched as a child were Miyazaki’s works. At the time in Italy, cartoons were only a children thing, and all the series that you could find on television were coming from Japan. I started to watch Lupin series when I was around 10 years old. I’m still a fan of his work and passing this passion to my daughters.

    My first ever Ghibli film was Spirited Away, but I’ve grown to love older films like Castle in the Sky and Kiki’s delivery service.

      heidi on channel 4 for me- i don't even think it was ever dubbed in english but german (we picked up on the weak lip sync) and the music would flip between the german and japanese. then same for grave and totoro i think. didn't grasp the origin of the films but stuck in my brain till i got mononuke on dvd- i completly forgot it got advertised in the cinema! got most the movies so far, many of the wmt.

    Know he isn’t a fan of most modern anime but without this man many modern anime wouldn’t be around and definitely not as popular. Grave of the Fireflies is one the first anime that made me cry. As a grown man believe I would still tear up if I watched it. To me an anime that can generate emotion in the audience is a sign of a great story. Love studio Ghibli as a kid of the nineties and animated movies have to thank this man for his work.

    Personally I think he and Walt Disney have more in common than people realize - especially their childhoods. They were both forced to grow up fast to support their parents through tough times.
    And as leaders they were both unable to pass their role on to anyone else. And it looks to me like when Miyazaki leaves this world, the same thing will happen to Ghibli that happened to Disney - with no clear successor to him, the studio will fall to the corporate leadership.

      I can understand Miyazaki in this. His son betrayed everything Ghibli stood for, exchanging amazing hand drawn animation with generic 3D stuff. Like it or hate it but you do not leave a legacy like this being anything but a strict perfectionist. He did everything for his vision and less for his own ego and fame, I wouldn't call him a tyrant for that.
      Charlie Chaplin was the same for that reason.

      This type of parenting usually stems from jealousy.
      Jealous that their children is living in better times and often comparing their children'' time now vs the parent's time back then which usually was "harder," atleast to their perspective.
      Because of this, they (the parents) usually treat their children worse as to replicate what they experienced in their own childhoods.
      As the old saying goes:
      "Weak men create bad times,
      Bad times create strong men,
      Strong men create great times,
      Great times create weak men."

    Thorough research and careful attention to details in this documentary resembles the love to detail by Hayao-san. Brilliant biographic review, tons of curious facts and respectful tone, all together made it a great fun to watch. Human experience is filled with walking down the "grey area", it's not all black and white. In that sense personal family happiness sacrificed for the personal purpose of the master himself provides additional clue into better understanding of his characters. Production wise, I can only imagine how many hours it took to collect all the materials, make the script and edit everything together. I just discovered your channel thanks to the interest in this subject but subscribed after 5 minutes into the film. Brilliant work @Biographer, you guys do a great job!

    I tend to favor the older Ghibli Films. Nausicaa, Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro, and Kiki's Delivery Service. Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away are both masterpieces, Howl's Moving Castle is beautiful and fun if a little cluttered and confusing at times, and Nausicaa has a vibe and aesthetic that I adore that hasn't really been captured in any of his works since. My personal favorite though is Castle in the Sky. I just love how it's a pure, fun adventure. Great characters, thrilling action, an interesting setting (Laputa), and amazing music. It's my favorite animated film.

      I share your exact sentiments to a T. Laputa and Totoro are my favorites, and i tend to look less on his later output, especially Howl's, which I personally think by far is his weakest movie, but it seems it's the favorite of all the new generation of Ghibli fans. This is coming from one OG Ghibli fan who bought the butchered video of Nausicaa; Warriors of the Wind, when it was first released.

    Hayao Miyazaki, is a well acclaimed manga artist and animator and his works will last the ages Many after him will continue to enjoy his works, and will inspire many to pick up a pen and paper and draw. He is in the same league as Walt Disney, Ub Iworks, Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Jack Kirby,, William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. For me, the first movie I watched was from him and the studio Ghibli team was Spirited Aeay, and I got hooked, making me watch almost all his films. I highly recommend watching one of his films, and see if your desire takes root, and leaves you watching more. A truly great and exemplary animator.

    Spirited away was my first taste of what this amazingly talented man creates. It opened the door to me watching My neighbour totoro,the wind rises,howl's moving castle,laputa castle in the sky and many more.
    He really does deserve all the praise possible for such hard work, dedication, and pure imagination he puts into each and every one of his visually stunning films.
    I'll be a fan forever.

    Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is so underrated. It's my absolute favorite. Also, Whisper of the Heart, Princess Monoke is amazing too. Howl's Moving Castle is a great film and also Spirited Away.

    as a cyberpunk otaku, my favorite Ghibli/Miyazaki anime is the On Your Mark J-rock music video they made for Chage and Aska in the 90s. Quite literally Angelic, with visually stunning futuristic cyberpunk backgrounds drawn with the Ghibli aesthetic. Makes me wish they made some scifi anime in addition to their fantasy/historical fiction titles...

    I’ve watched a good amount of Miyazaki’s movies but a movie I’ve watched since I was a kid and is still my favorite is Ponyo because even though the art within the movie is beautiful the story of finding the way you want to live your life I have resonated since I had first saw it even when I didn’t understand it. Thank you for this great video it helped me learn a lot more of Miyazaki’s life and thought process:)

    i really love miyazaki, but that really sucks about his wife having to quit. i mean, why have kids in the first place if you're not going to be able to raise them properly? they should both have remained childless and been able to retain their respective careers. there's an awful irony to the fact that he celebrates strong women who pursue their destinies, undeterred, yet made the one woman who he could have supported in his own life relinquish her dream. it's unforgivable, really.

    I love how Disney knew they would never be creative enough to create something as inspirational as Spirited Away, so they worked with Miyazaki to legally dub it in the US. xD
    Miyazaki certainly has created masterful works. I wish he would make one more, but I understand if he doesn’t.
