What the hell; how did I not hear about this? I own the Nausica 'manga' already and wasn't aware of this spiritial sibling so I will be picking it up asap! Thanks Britta~
It still counts as a gift if I buy it for myself, right? 🤣 Thank you for your recommendation, Britta! I'm still patiently waiting for The Boy and the Heron to release on Netflix, and this might be the thing to tide me over.
Thank you for this video! What a perfect gift idea. I just ordered a copy to give my husband, who adores Miyazaki. We watched Nausicaa on one of our first dates.
Thank you for highlighting this marvelous, relatively unknown work! I bought it the week it was released here in the US, and I've read it twice since. Indeed a perfect gift for any fan of Miyazaki, Ghibli, or fantasy in general. And thank you for continually shattering generational and cultural barriers. Your openness and authenticity are rare and wonderful gifts to us all, your appreciative fans.
Britta I just found your channel and I love your content. I never knew of this book and will have to try and seek it out! I’ve got a couple Miyazaki art books and even though I’m not a great artist I love trying to copy the characters I love so much from his films!
we've already bought gifts for christmas but this is a great idea that i'll start drooping hints for in a few months for my birthday ;) thanks so much as always, Britta!
Nausicaa is my favourite Ghibli film. This sounds fantastic to me! Have you played any tabletop games Britta? The game Cloud Empress might be of interest to you, it draws a lot of inspiration from Nausicaa and its art is beautiful
Cough .. we have a stack of board games in the cupboard .. but never get around to setting them up and playing them! 😁 I had a look at their website cloudempress.com/ and it certainly looks a beautiful and ethically laudable project.
Love all the videos. You're absolutely adorable and also kick arse and hilarious 😍 Hope that I will be like this in my golden years. Lots of love from a house full of your fans (even our cat loves to watch 😅) in Portugal. Also blessings and happiness for everyone 💐
You always find and share beautiful treasures! I was stuck what to get a friend, good timing! 🤗 A perfect and thoughtful gift, we see the older Miyazaki films when they come back to theaters here every summer. We saw The Boy and the Heron tonight, so good!
This book is quite possibly the best intro I can think of to the world of Japanese stories (manga & anime). Btw, I just quickly checked what's up on your channel and blow me down - I had almost forgotten about Astlibra! It's not available (like soooo many other games) in my regional eShop, so I made sure to wishlist it on the US eShop. 👍🏻
I bought this book earlier this month for a friend as an upcoming christmas present. I hadn't read it (or seen your video yet) so I'm happy to know it'll be a good read! I better get one for myself now lol
Nausicaa was already one of my favorite Studio Ghibli movies, and I was so happy when I found the Nausicaa manga and how it MASSIVELY expands the story. I found Shuna's Journey earlier this year, and I'm so happy that you found it too! Thank-you for highlighting this beautiful book on your channel!
nausicaa is my favorite ghibli movie and ive read the manga too so youve definitely sold me on this! put a hold on it at my local library :D also i love your inuyasha figures in the background!
Great video as always. I hope there's a Spanish translation (or hope there will be one), I have a few people in mind who'd really love this as a gift. Also, you're always so good at placing items for your background and frame in the video! It impresses me.
thanks for this Britta. Shuna's journey does seem to go very well with Nausicaa indeed , and luckily for me i happen to have a few family members besides myself who are big studio Ghibli fans🤭 Happy holidays!
off topic; you should maybe do a video about the final fantasy games and your thoughts on them if you haven't already played them, I think you would like them.
I just got Shuna's Journey last week. Though I find the layout to be very simplistic, it might be the break I need from the other books and games that I have.
Always remember: simple does not always = simplistic! 😎 But yes, the story is kept 'simple' and straightforward, which at this short length is important.
Yes. Mononoke came a bit later (1997) but there are definitely strong similarities. Knowing Nausicaa and Shuna, you can see the evolution. Which is ofc why I had the Collector's Edition of Mononoke on the sofa. 😎
I've never heard of this, but I happen to be a HUGE fan of Nausicaa. Will definitely check this out!
Same here. Straight to the wishlist.
its more Nausicaa manga than Nausicaa the film (which is good imo)
Same here! Nausicaa is one of my all time favorite anime movies🤩
What the hell; how did I not hear about this? I own the Nausica 'manga' already and wasn't aware of this spiritial sibling so I will be picking it up asap!

Absolutely counts as a perfect gift for yourself! 😎

Me from EU: barely got to work today because of the snowstorm.
Britta: we're waiting for blueberries.
Cheers 😂
Yea, we heard about the rough weather. 😕
My step-grandma got this for me last christmas!! It was a great gift!
You have an excellent step-grandma!

Thank you and welcome. 😀
I actually just bought this a couple weeks ago!

Thank you for sharing this. I had no idea it existed. I want to try it now!
Nausicaa is my favorite Miyazaki film! thanks for the recommendation.
I really loved your review and you are really an inspiration now as u r doing this in this age.
You find really wonderful stuff. Never knew this existed until your video.
I recently heard of this channel and I have to say I'm really glad. Great ideas thank you
Thank you, I was still looking for a present for my friend and I think this is it!
Thank you for this recommendation. Nausicaa of the valley of the wind is my favorite Ghibli movie.
Love all the videos. You're absolutely adorable and also kick arse and hilarious 😍 Hope that I will be like this in my golden years. Lots of love from a house full of your fans (even our cat loves to watch 😅) in Portugal. Also blessings and happiness for everyone 💐
Thank you for the recommendation, this sounds like the perfect gift for my fiancé!
Thank you for your recomendation. I'm already a fan of Miyazaki and especially of Nausicaa. I admire your chanel too.
You always find and share beautiful treasures! I was stuck what to get a friend, good timing! 🤗
A perfect and thoughtful gift, we see the older Miyazaki films when they come back to theaters here every summer. We saw The Boy and the Heron tonight, so good!
Damn you are a pro, this is the the first time ive heard about this! As a huge miyazaki fan this is such a treat, thanks for the information!
Thanks for the recommendation, my niece will love it. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Thank you for the video, I'll have to give this one a go.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention as I'd never known of it. Ordered a copy from Dymocks Australia after watching. ❤
Ah .. Dymocks .. another bookshop chain that left NZ shores 10 years ago. Very sad.
Good to hear they're still going in Australia.
Thanks Britta, just bought it for someone's christmas present!
Thats so cool, I'll definitely be checking that out. I'm new to anime in many ways, but I'm always excited to check out recommendations

omg i need this! I own the big volumes of Nausicaa
I was just reading about this earlier today 😮 What a perfect timing ❤ Great review
This Lady is the best ! Love your enthusiasm
Just ordered for my partner after this recommendation -- thank you!

I LOVE Nausicaa, yet I've never heard of this one! Thank you for sharing😍

Nausicaa is wonderful, i don't know this one here yet. Thanks for showing
Wow, this is a really good find! Thanks for sharing!
I just got this a few months ago! Beautiful work of art.
Lovely. Thank you so much for the video!
Good video
nausicaa is my favorite ghibli movie and ive read the manga too so youve definitely sold me on this! put a hold on it at my local library :D also i love your inuyasha figures in the background!
Really enjoyed this one. A bit of Mononoke, a bit of Nausicaa, all Miyazaki san.
Great video as always. I hope there's a Spanish translation (or hope there will be one), I have a few people in mind who'd really love this as a gift.
Also, you're always so good at placing items for your background and frame in the video! It impresses me.
thanks for this Britta. Shuna's journey does seem to go very well with Nausicaa indeed , and luckily for me i happen to have a few family members besides myself who are big studio Ghibli fans🤭 Happy holidays!
And Love from Pakistan🇵🇰
off topic; you should maybe do a video about the final fantasy games and your thoughts on them if you haven't already played them, I think you would like them.
You like Nausicaä? Me too! My favorite in fact.
I found this for 8$ on Ebay! Its missing the dust jacket but besides that, it's a steal!
Nice! 👍🏻
Let’s goooooo

But yes, the story is kept 'simple' and straightforward, which at this short length is important.
I see more similarities to Princess Mononoke. The animal looks exactly like Yakul and the guy looks like the prince.
Yes. Mononoke came a bit later (1997) but there are definitely strong similarities. Knowing Nausicaa and Shuna, you can see the evolution.
Which is ofc why I had the Collector's Edition of Mononoke on the sofa. 😎
