I genuinely want to hear his opinion about anything and everything...
Rudolph Steiner.
Maybe he'd say: "If Europe would have become anthroposophic instead of materialist, it would be as I always depicture it within my movies!"
There are two books with interviews collected on him, did you ever read them? The first is especially interesting.
Indeed
youtube algarithm is confused as math
Use subtitles
I don't know what to say I can't disagree with any of his statements.
It is odd that a ledgenday animator and director doesn't watch TV or movies.
Even about WHAT HE SAID ABOUT YOUR NAME?
Maybe he would draw too much inspiration from others work if he watched movies.
Same
@@danr.5017 There are many that don't
He don't like modern cars designs because in the front they look like angry face LOL
l me when I decide to buy anythin
He is not wrong. It is "aggressive styling" because people feel powerless. Sad, really.
@@GonsalvoDeCordova i dont think its that deep
Agreed, cars should be more kawaii
It's true. They are often supposed to look fierce, powerful and in motion, even when standing.
Not going to lie, he is spitting facts here
I knew there was a reason I really freaking liked Miyazaki besides his films of course. Very well constructed responses.
Image being such an influential person because of your work in the anime industry that they'll ask for your opinion on politics and war on interviews.
I think it's because it's clear he's a highly intelligent humanitarian and anthropologist who observes, thinks, and is highly concerned about society and what it is to be human. It's these things that result in the deeply thoughtful films and choices he makes in his films.
Wow. Google really upped their spying game now. I watched a documentary series about him on TV the other day, and now, all of the sudden this got reccomended.
Smart TV
Are you me? I watched "Kingdom of Dreams and Madness" yesterday and today I got recommended this video. Thing is, I had the documentary sitting on my hard drive for a year or more, so it's not like I just downloaded it or streamed on a smart TV, and I haven't googled anything Miyazaki or Ghibli related, so either it's a big coincidence that I had this recommended to me or google has massively upped their spying game.
@Edward That boot must taste very nice, eh?
So if what @Edward says is right "they recommend stuff that you are most likely to view based on your behaviour" & "not spying", then, how was it a friend of mine was talking to me about something I've never heard, search or seen before. I had no interests in the topic which was neither popular or recent, or anything relating to me, just something random. I decided to look it up on Google... Only got to type the first letter and there it was, a few results based on the first letter of what we were talking about. What's the chances that's a coincidence.
@Edward I do know how search engines work, considering I have volunteered programming one in the past. Yes a "search result" (live result as you pause typing [I was thinking how to spell it]) and for "its usually the popular topics" that's why I said it's not popular or recent. It was something that happened locally over 50 years ago and was only 2 articles existing for it, one of which no longer exists (404) and the other written by the local newspaper around 15 years ago and only has 1 paragraph briefly mentioning it, everything else was completely different and unrelated (but this, I searched, was last year sometime). I've tried it now and it doesn't appear. I can't remember how to spell that word and Google is not finding it by its misspelling either. It's using the same account. I had my phone in front of me at the time and it was connected to mobile data (internet). My PC however, which doesn't have a microphone, uses a different account yet almost never suggests or recommends the right things I'm looking for.
Miyazaki may have left the JCP, but political discussion never left his heart
He is a hentai old man of the Lolita complex who has given up on communism, who wants to play a pacifist but suffers from self-contradiction that he loves fighters and tanks, which are murder weapons.
@@学習中近東平和 so smart 😍😍😍😍
"Something big and hit won't last forever" wow...
I like hearing what he has to say, responsible for some of the greatest animated movies of the past 100 years.
As much as i love how he shares the same political opinions as me, i can't say I'm happy because they're interviewing him about politics.
It's not something you should ask.
Miyazaki graduated from Gakushuin in 1963 with degrees in political science and economics
He is actually quite open to his political opinion and sometimes even tried to spread it by himself.
Why? Democracy lives from an exchange of opinions. Especially opposing ones. It's way easier to demonize other positions if you don't know anyone you respect that openly has that position.
@@arifgunawan9329 George Lucas tends to dwell in it too. Like in Star Wars Episode 3, his whole movie was about the way democracy dies is when people lose trust in the system, and then a tyrant takes the power. Although it was a very well made idea into that movie
The first part was hilarious. Their fronts look angry, because they're selling them to China.
Am I the only one who wonders why the display of this video is horizontally reverted?
I bet we all would think he's a random nobel prize professor if it weren't for Spirited Away.
I don't know where the interviewer gets the idea that peace is decreasing. There's far less war globally now than in the past. We're becoming increasingly a well-fed, peaceful world.
Just some pseudo-intellectual babble, like "we're all in this together" or "orange man bad".
Well that is one hell of a title
That little reaction square in the bottom left corner...
Oh hey, it's Shinji's father.
I love Hayao Miyazaki, he's a good animated and a good man. I bet Miyazaki hates Trump for his pollution of the environment and his prejudice.
I desperately want his opinion on Your Name, it’s the best non-Ghibli animated film I’ve ever seen but I’m curious how he would feel about it
I agree with him.
宮崎駿の言葉
私はアメリカが嫌いだ。日本を倒したからだ
そのアメリカに負けた日本はもっと嫌い。残ってるのはヨーロッパだけ。だから私はヨーロッパが好きなんです。
The guy who made dark souls is this old?
Part of me wants to hear his opinion towards Makoto Shinkai’s animation
zarathoustra is in miyazaki !
I can read Japanese but I can't read this because it's freaking mirrored!
Japanese are indeed bad at war. During the first battles for the Port Arthur, Russians were surprised and shocked by the Japanese infantry tactics of running straight at the machine guns fire. Straight frontal suicide attack waves were japanese basic warfare tactic, no tricks or maneuvers at all. Same way, japanese never even updated their code system while fighting against usa, americans intercepted and knew everything what japanese gonna do, and in the entire period of war japanese didn't even try to ask themselves why. Moreover, during war american subs destroyed many japanese transport ships crippling supplies, and absolutely no measure whatsoever were taken against that by japanese, ships just continued being sinked. They are bad at war, but they tried.
They had a technological disadvantage as a late developer, which the Japanese military tried to compensate by morale enhancement and plain manpower. It actually worked quite well if Japan's enemies were also late developers or underdeveloped countries. The real problem for Japan in WWII was actually not about the technological deficit but lack of real leadership to lead the nation in the right direction. All those conflicts against China or the West could have been avoided if Japan had a more centralised leadership. A real leadership was no more once Meiji oligarchs died out.
No matter how great he may be he really shoudn't have commented that about Your Name. Makoto Shinkai created Magic!
Nope, he didn't. Miyazaki instead, created Magic.
Shinkai is a good director, but the only watchable one is Your Name. The rest of his works is so cheesy and poor
Based.
I wonder what he would say about Trump now...
aw man :( i was hoping he'd watch kimi no na wa :(((((((((
Makoto Shinkai wouldn't though xD
The Japanese care about American politics?
It affects everyone, unfortunately
Ever heard of okinawa and US soliders stationed in Japan? The treaty Japan signed with the US and the Marshall plan to rebuild Japan so it comes under US control?
US basically controls the world so it affects all of us
Japan is bad at war? Wanna talk about that K/D ratio in WW2? What is he talking about?
Think he was referring to the bomb and how they ultimately lost. Don't read too much into it.
@@tigervalley62 Also he's probably criticizing his own country's atrocities as in when they wage war, it's for bad reasons. Seems like a simple comment, but it's likely deep based on his past comments on Japan.
Bad in war in the sense that the Japanese were brutally cruel to their enemies. That's my take anyway. There's plenty of evidences like The Rape of Nanking, etc.
@@lalhmingthangachhakchhuak5211 we hold the rape of Nanking as some major cruelty and people blame them for it and they have to pay reparations for it, yet in the same time we forgive Russia for the rape of Dresden, which was by far way worse. Don't know whats the deal with that.
@@f.th.4299 history is written by the winners, simple as that. By the way, I know that the Soviets raped their way through on their way to Germany, but I can't seem to find specific materials on the Rape of Dresden, do you mind referring me to your source or reference?
Injustice is not 'whataboutery'. You don't have to compare the Rape of Nanking to some other atrocity to know that it is one of the worst violation of human rights in recent times. I suspect there are countless atrocities swept under the rug by the Allies as well, but that doesn't mean Imperial Japan shouldn't be condemned for their atrocities. The Rape of Nanking is not just 'rape'. It's Imperial Japanese soldiers looming the streets of Nanking pillaging, killing in the tens of thousands and raping for fun. It's not about other atrocities that may have happened either. There Rape of Nanking should itself be its own yardstick. Comparing it to some other atrocities should not make it any less bad.
I am starting to like Miyazaki as a person and not as an animator
I actually don’t agree with a lot of what he said here ngl
He said you're unemployed
I would not have voted for Trump if I knew Miyazaki's opinion. Hahaha joke
Well Miyazaki is wrong, Trump has brought unemployment to its lowest levels in the U.S. ever and for many different groups as well, like blacks, latinos and women. As well, Trump is forcing cars to not be manufactured in Mexico, Miyazaki should be happy, not only that, but Trump is anti war.
To be fair, this was 3 years before Trump proved himself. I wasn't the biggest Trump supporter back in 2017 myself, but now I respect the guy quite a bit.
@@tigervalley62 lmao
@@helpinghands7935: Say whatever you want. That's an opinion.
No american president can be anti war, regardless of the party
Why is there always someone in the corner on Japanese TV?
Spokker i wonder that too
They think it enhances it kinda like a laugh track.

Its the original 'Reaction Video' Thanks Japan... xD
In Japan, a lot of the culture in the media revolves around TV celebrities, so those screen partitions are meant to appeal to the audience. When you see your favourite celebrity, It usually entices you to watch what they are watching and to see their insight on the topic.
Miyazaki doesn't watch movies. His mind just flows with imagination
he got the best movies in there just for himself.
In Japanese he actually said literallly that "i'm becoming a human being who doesn't watch Tv or Movies" which means that he doesn't watch movies anymore. I think he probably was very fascinated by both animated and live action movies but nowadays he is probably not receiving the same stimulations he received in the past...or maybe he just feels too old to watch new things
@@karimrashidpour9378 I mean i cant blame him. Sometimes its best to keep good quality stuff and just try to stick with the solid stuff
or maybe he knows by reading, some journals, articles, novels and mangas.. that's what i think..❤️
and some of Ghibli movies are inspired by these kind of media..
His life flows with experience with which to draw inspiration from. And every one of us has (or has the privilege, right, and responsibility to have) our own unique experience that we should draw from.
I like how he makes movies, but doesnt watch movies
Man Man because he is a movie
It fits his style, you can tell, that he isn't influenced by other media as much. Since most of his movies tackle mostly topics that are more timeless it may help him to take an outside perspective. I don't think he would have been able to direct movies like Your Name or a Silent Voice, because they address modern (Japanese) culture. Just like Makoto Shinkai probably wouldn't have been able to direct something like Spirited Away. That's the beauty about art, great things can be created by almost opposite approaches.
I don't really know to be honest...
First he criticizes contemporary animators and artists cause they don't look at the real world to understand how animations work or how "x" looks like...then he admits he doesn't look at other people's movies / animated movies which doesn't seem to be such a great move as an artist and animator and feels a little bit hypocritical .
A lot of people who make them don’t, not enough time
Elisa Stella he also claims to love little girls and hate otaku culture, then makes films with an uncomfortable amount of panty shots of little girls.
When he said the Japanese are bad at war
LOL
No, not really lol. Many have claimed that Japan is terrible at war, and has done bad things in the past.
It’s just the politicians who has to “save face” that claim otherwise.
The Pescavelho Channel no they aren’t...lol. They just have overwhelming fire power compared to other nations, to the point where it is harder to “not lose” with that capability.
USA, Russia, China are arguably three of the most overrated countries in terms of war records. USA and China basically lost to Vietnam, while Russia lost to Afghanistan. The time has changed where Super powers can go full out and destroy one country, since it will hinder the economy of their country (and make other surrounding nations rich in contrast).
That being said, Japan was awful at war, and so was Germany. They both took advantage of new technology to go berserk against old tech nations...when the US came, both countries were exposed.
There are very few countries that are actually “good” at war. Vietnam was one of them. They fought against IJA, De Gaulle’s France, Cold War USA, Mao Zedong’s China, and won all of them (yes, they did. None of the countries above succeeded in achieving their goals, and went home packing). That is VERY impressive.
I think he said in a sense of morality, Japan did terrible stuffs in East Asia (1867-1945)
@Ernesto 。
Japan is bad at war in the sense Miyazaki is most likely referring to the leadership, Japan historically has always had pretty awful generals and people in charge, the Bushido thinking got in the way in WW2 and Japan ended up committing so many mistakes it would cost her independence, the avg Japanese soldier however fought very well in fact the Japanese soldier was better trained than the American soldier and Japanese had a lot of well trained and experienced pilots and naval crews.
But Japan fought a bad war, made terrible mistakes and lost not only in China, but also in the pacific. Only the biggest fool would start a war when you have no OIL to fuel your navy to fight the biggest naval forces in the world.
@@roccoanthony8930 Germany fought an awful war? France and England were old tech nations? You should reconsider what you said
This man is too pure for this shit planet.
Miyazaki is the spitting image of perfection.
I don't think so from the information that I know. Would you mind explaining me what made you believe this ? I don't know much about Hayao Miyazaki, if it's a bunch of info sources that gave you the info necessary to believe this could you please link me to them ? If it's a lot of different sources, big and small things, sometimes unrelated, then you don't need to bother.
Lol the planet is not shit. Majority of dumb people who fill the planet are.
don't know how you define "shit"
and his statement on "i don't watch tv or movie" lol same here....
after watching lots of anime. there no perfections
He really isn't pure lol.
He can be quite the asshole to people he works it.
However I also see him as wise and I admire him.
I guess he is very convinced of his own views and gets annoyed easily.
But the man isn't his movies. They are just a part of his worldview.
Miyazaki's got some decent politics. He should really see his boy Anno's Godzilla movie though.
well, he did study political science and economics. I guess, it roots from that
+A Nice Person You don't seem like a nice person.
I don't believe in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Americans slaughter Middle-Eastern children pretty much on their own, they don't need Jewish influence when they obviously started the war to make money off of oil and weapons manufacturing. And don't pull that shit because Anti-Israel people love to shit on Islam too, and at other times justify the war in the Middle-East by saying that Islam is evil. You don't care about the children, you just want to use emotional retorts to guilt liberals and roclaim moral superiority, yet complain when they do the same. You're a disgusting breed of person.
Lol @ the Zionist bot defending Israeli war crimes against no-one.
Miyazaki used to be a radical Communist up until he went to work for Ghibli at which point he was told to tone it down a bit, which he did although his movies are filled with Socialist views and environmentalism.
People say his movies contain a lot of feminism but this is wrong, its a Socialist view on women, Soviet cinema did the same thing showing empowering women who did the job of men, because Socialism is egalitarian.
Yeah, I think Miyazaki is a very interesting and intelligent person
its incredible just how far your comment misrepresents what he actually said. its... baffling
BBCAT - thats what ignorants do best aint it?
i agree that his comment is unintelligent but yours is little better with your blatant and logically unfounded racism and slander that has no place in any form of respectable discourse.
If you think that's passable for sound logic I firmly suggest you read some textbooks on the science of critical thinking... The amount of logical lapses and fallacies you just shit onto the internet is embarassing.
Just the singular assumption of "living in america = understanding more about america than everyone who does not live in america" is such an unconditionally broken line of thought in and of itself, but... jesus, man.
@@lorax121323 to be fair, he graduated with a degree in political science and economics, and his father was a Japanese aeronautical engineer who ran an airplane manufacturing firm in WW2. He's also an active environmentalist. So he isn't just the head of a studio and filmmaker.
That being said, besides being all of these things, he's a pretty bad father...
People are saying it’s surprising that he doesn’t watch movies but it kinda shows doesn’t it? His movies don’t watch like movies, they watch like some of the best children’s books and religious allegorical stories. To me it seems clear that Miyazaki is more inspired by his childhood, nature and the religions in his country than anything else.
he of course watches movies, but like many other directors isn't especially up to date, you can check out his list of favorite movies online for example, you can see in his work a lot of skills which he learned being at least partially raised on cinema,
btw in japanese he said "Im becoming a man who doesnt watch movies..."
I knew he would hate Trump being president but I'm happy to know that he hated Hillary Clinton also.
Joseph Tafur Why?
"Cars look kinda angry nowadays"
He just summarized the state of the world right there. Everyone's so angry these days, even though we're living one of the longest periods of peace in modern history
"longest periods of peace"
Strange, I think some middle-eastern people might disagree with you there.
@Saturday Night Pie
Why are you calling me a shitskin, dude?
Perhaps peace is the same as directionless or being idle for many men. Men without a purpose deteriorate. Wars used to give meaning to those men.
@@DanielK1213th That would better had the world not been in a constant state of warfare for the past century. If those men want it it's literally right there.
@@Nah427 he is right tho
He ended up watching Kimi no Na wa, and said it was what he expected from that type of story in an interview in 2017.

@@haresmahmood you're welcome, honey
Exactly what I would say as well.
When he talked about the cars looking angry immediately I could see how that was reflective of his wildly imaginative mind.
OppaiMausPad Sauce of your cover pic?
This world is too apathetic and corrupt for someone as pure and idealistic as Miyazaki. But he still tries his best to make as many people as happy as possible
He just say straight what he thinks, doesn't give a shit
Hes awesome.

"Your Name was a mistake"
- Ahegao Miyazaki
It's amazing to say I TOTALLY AGREE WITH HIM--a man who is so far away in distance and culture! But he says BOTH Trump and Clinton are bad, YES, that's exactly it!
A lot of Republicans felt the same way. Too bad they were split among a dozen alternatives.
It was a poor election cycle.
I'm more a centre-right person, but I agree with Miyazaki on his opinions on Trump and Clinton.
Exactly. The title of this video should be referring to Hillary as well.
Looking back, a Clinton government wouldn't have been so bad after all huh
A Clinton government would have been worse
Nothing to discuss, or be petty (or 'clever') about one way or the other. Just nice to see some new footage of him talking. I hope his work is coming along.
I'd love to hear his opinion on the pandemic
He's right on the money with the jobs issue. Exporting jobs overseas has been a major issue in the last few decades.
I'm surprised he's attuned to American politics so well. I don't think many foreigners know about how bad Hillary is. Then again, I have no idea how other countries even describe American politics.
He probably hates the Clinton for what they did the Serbia and serbs.
The beginning part about globalization and Trump really adds up. I like his sensibility there. Also its funny how he disliked both candidates. 2016 and 2020 were probably the worst elections to happen yet. 2016 both candidates were unpopular and 2020,,, a Nightmare.
Well he's hayao Miyazaki so I guess he's right.
"Their fronts look kinda angry, don't they?
Maybe that's because car makers are selling them to China."
I kind of wish the interviewer would have dug into that nugget a bit more :P
Every election is always a choice between the lesser of two evils.- Dr Frank Turek.
No, that's just american politics. Democrats still thinking they're progressive when their current social and fiscal positions are actually center-right (to moderate right depending on who you ask), and Republicans with Walsh and Trump frontlining in the lunacy contest and them slowly losing sane minds.
You know it's bad when it's just people LARPing toddler fights with twitter being it's playground. Why worry about advancing your economic system, having a better grip on geopolitics (god knows US has been really shit at this for a while) or actually working on social issues when you can just "own the libtards/conservatards" in an obsolete cockmeasuring contest. MURICAN! ego it's finest
Though all of this is a really fun soap opera to us outsiders. Shit's fun af.
He is speaking straight up facts rn.
I wonder what are his thought about animators getting paid very low and working too much hours? Along with a whole bunch of stuff going on in the world.
NOGI48
I gonna answer you about that.
According to his statement in one interview he said “ he doesn’t like it “ .
He don’t like the idea of it! Period!
He probably doesn't approve, he was actually part of starting the first Union for animators in Japan. But then again I've also seen what people are getting paid to work on his current project 😬. I get they don't have a lot of faith it'll get done but damn it's not much
Man, you know it's bad in the US when *THE Walt Disney of Japan* calls us out!😅 I didn't expect him to say what he said so candidly...
For the time being? I think Miyazaki really meant ever, because He’s a pretty pacifistic person
This is legit my first time hearing him speak and I gotta say I love what I got to hear from him lol
Is there a full version of this anywhere?

It's kinda socialdemocratic and that's not easy at all in Japan. A country where you DESERVE to live an acceptable life and no one is poor actually. Wonderful mind, as great artist as great man!
Kinda....the ironic thing is that animators in Japan make wages so low when they start they'd be illegal here
Shame on Miyazaki for not seeing his friend's, Hideaki Anno's hit film Shin Godzilla!
TvSonic Serbia he doesn’t have to btw he has his own vision about watching films
Hey, no need to get all rude and cuss at people.
Not everyone has to like something haha : D
@@jojiles969 I mean,if i had a friend and we both were filmmakers,even if i didn,t care about the kind of movie my friend was making,i would at least watch the thing.
Why does japanese tv almost always look like it was filmed in the 80s
Miyazaki reminds me of an ancient Asian hermit sage. In his spare time he is in seclusion concentrating on his next masterpiece all the while deep in his heart he is saddened about the world at large. lol
Can you please link the original interview? I watched him discuss many topics with the other gentleman in this programme many years ago and I can't find it now.
Best part is when he the animator says he dont watch movies or tv lol.
I Think he doesn't want to see doing pervy act from hand drawn animation 😅
Wise man, very wise.
miyazaki hates clinton. based
Did he really says globalism?
His heart is in the right place.
I relate so hard to his opinions on car designs
he probably would like your name and a silent voice
haha no.
He would probably say it's a shit movie with an absurd plot
They are too commercial to him.
Here i am thinking to watch more movies in hopes of becoming a director and Miyazaki be like I dOnT wAtCH mOvIeS oR tV
Nah, everyone has a different approach. It makes sense to watch movies critically if you want to make them. The reason why it works for Miyazaki is, because the topics of his movies are very timeless and he basically defined what a good animated movie looks like. He looks at the world and tries to capture it in film. So the right way to learn from hom is probably to not only watch movies, but to watch the real world as well. To see how people interact in reality and to critically see, if modern movies portray this realistically.
@@melonlord1414 yes i totally agree his stories came from his experience throughout his life and how he felt about certain aspects of human behavior yet i feel like in order to properly present an idea a certain need of studying is required on how others did what they did in an analytical way, this is my approach obviously Miyazaki is different like any other individual it depends on them how they approach something still it is really impressive that his ideas is totally his if you compare it with Tarantino he openly admits of taking inspiration from other director's work.
@@prateek2136 that sounds like an interesting approach. I hope I'll get to see a movie from you eventually 👍
I think Miyazaki would like watching Your Name... But maybe he is kinda resentful about It xD
I think he will hate it.
He doesn't like Trump and Clinton, lol. And who would he vote for if he were a US citizen?
I don't watch movies
- Probably the greatest filmmaker
He's the Gordon Ramsay of anime. If he's going to watch shit it better be fucking good.
@madscientist 666 i liked the movie tho
I wouldnt say that Japan is bad at war. Besides losing ww2, they were able to beat Qing China and Russia that were far more bigger than Japan.
I think he more meant that japan does terrible things when they wage war. Miyazaki is very vocal about japan publicly apologizing for war crime.
That problem is once those Meiji oligarchs died out, Japan lost real leadership.
Crazy how much backlash he got for criticizing the imperialist Japan when he made The Wind Rises. Japan was allies with Nazi Germany and caused atrocities to its neighboring countries yet still pretends like none of that happened. I appreciate that he is willing to criticize that knowing how taboo it is for the Japanese ppl to even talk about their own war crimes.
If only the Axis-countries could find some sort of middle ground.
Germany went the completely whimpering route, doing nothing but apologizing for the past, that's nearly a hundred years old by now.
And Japan went the opposite, much like China with their acknowledgement of 'The Great Leap Forward' and the atrocities done during that time, Japan is just pretending they didn't slaughter many, many chinese during their occupation of chinese soil.
There should be some midway point, where they could apologize a bit, but not go overboard with it.
@@Nah427 So you want to take the American view on war then?
@@laraerikson1423 What? Warmongering? lol, no.
@@laraerikson1423 It depends if it has ties to history. Example of a movie i like is "Letters from Iwo Jima" made by Clint Eastwood, basically Japan then almost worshipped the emperor like a God. Or so does history books where i lived said. But it wouldnt suprise me if someone kind of thought they went a little.. too far in that sense in the army. But i think its a good and well made movie atleast
He doesn't watch movies nor tv? Wow.
My sentiments exactly, I wish I could like this twice.
I love how respectful this man is, he’s not hyperbolic at all. Also, YES, MODERN CAR DESIGN IS HELLA ICKY AND IT IS BECAUSE OF CHINA THIS MAN IS ON TRUTH RIGHT NOW.
"Your name" is a boring pretensious garbage, cheap melodrama for 12yo. It has no soul. Just empty cheap :I suffer, no I suffer more"
I see, you're the real high man of culture
Japan shouldn't go to war because we Japanese are bad at it.
Talk about the rivalry between IJA and IJN.🤣🤣🤣
Well look at that, hes a reasonable person
Imagine a filmmaker telling you he doesn't watch movies.
'Your Name' was worse than '5cm/sec' but still okay. 'Weathering with You' was irritating and awful.
As an aspiring young actor turning director, I love this man.
Haha, Miyazaki has one thing in common with John Cleese. Today's cars looks shit.
