Hey i googled it,its "ka-glee-ow-stow"
Holy shit, thank you, more people gotta cite their sources. I really appreciated the cited sources in the video
@@spencerdokes6056 what are you talking about?
@@SanoKei might still need to do some minor adjusts but most of it is there
Nausicaa has always been my favourite Ghibli film. So I recently decided to buy the manga and it's just..... Breathtaking. It completely elevates the characters and story compared to the film. It truly inspired me to start volunteering and be more selfless to others. Just amazing. I wish more people knew about Nausicaa.
its pretty big but im hoping to convince some people here to check it out!
Could not agree more
Found out my local library has the whole series.
Nausicaa is my biggest hero of all time. From her, I decided/realized: "get your heart pure, then act fully on your heart."
The manga changed my life haha! Glad so many other people love it too
Nausicaa: easily a beloved classic all should enjoy and never forgotten! It's narrative, themes and vision should be reflected upon with optimism and a chance to grow.
good shit
I agree, Nausicaa is a classic and it should be handed down to your children and grandchildren. Thank you Miyazaki
This is remarkable mini documentary. Nausicaa of the Valley is a Classic Film that deserved to be told thoroughly.
thank yoU!
40 minutes of meticulously edited and illustrated content. Good shit ✨
Indeed
cheers Otachan
Hi, checkmark
I swear Nausicaa is floating around in the collective consciousness right now because I have been drawn to the bluray on my shelf for the past month and I finally took it out, rewatched it, and cried for about an hour afterward. This is honestly his best film in some ways. They’re all amazing and everyone has a Ghibli film that speaks to them more than others, KDS and The Tale of Princess Kaguya are actually my personal favorites, but I think this is Miyazaki’s masterpiece.
the manga is cool too
@@Stevem I’ve always wanted to read it. I’ll probably purchase it once I finally finish Akira and 20th Century Boys. Great work on the video, my friend!
@@mugiikari1641 YOOO IM READING 21st CENTURY BOIS TOO!!!
Me every 5 words: "Damn thats crazy!!!"
Those dudes really worked to the bone and beyond
Its a miracle miyazaki still alive ô_ô
very resilient and or insane
There's rumours that Miyazaki feeds on the souls of interns.
Had similar thoughts on this. He has well earned his retirement.
@@bobbygoestoabyss6624 he’s in the process of making another movie lol
This has always been my favorite Anime movie. Even when the only thing available was the Warriors of the Wind VHS I watched that over and over for the music and what little it had about the toxic jungle. Now I’m getting a masters degree in soil fertility and ecosystem restoration, so thanks Nausicaa! Also, I can tell you that what the Toxic Jungle does to purify the land and groundwater isn’t that far from reality. Fungi really are able to detoxify almost anything given the right conditions.
That’s so amazing! I’d love to see you explain the soil and and fungi and toxicity in a TH-cam video!!
That's so beautiful.
Miyazaki was inspired by the pollution at Minamata. The water became so polluted that the town was banned from fishing altogether - in Japan!
What Miyazaki saw when he visited was that the fish, left alone, were thriving. He was amazed by how Nature could take in the toxins and clean the environment.
That was the inspiration behind Nausicaa.
So it all comes full circle for you!
"If you like sausages, don't look at how they are made" - I love the film and adore the manga and they both look perfect to me, learning that the making of the film was such a warzone is a bit of a shock so thank you for this illuminating video essay!
no problem :)
It seems almost a rule of nature that no great art can come from a place of comfort or order
I've owned all the manga since I was 8. Such a deep and fascinating work that I appreciate more and more as I get older.
yeah its sooo dense ill have to read it again sometime although currently it holds my tablet upp
This video has everything: an inspired audio - visual presentation, insights on a tumultuous creative process delivered through the authors own accounts and sharp reflection on alienation and apocalypticism in post-war Japan. Bravo, this truly a magnus opus of your own!
P.S. Thank you for making me discover @Pause and Select, he made an excellent contribution and I can't wait to discover his content too.
please enjoy joes content he works really harrd!!!
Man I wish this video had existed back when I did a massive report on Nasicaa for my Environmental Literature class as my final project in college. There's so much more background I had no idea of that you covered. Thank you for including a detailed document of your sources. I will definitely be taking a look at some in my free time
miyazaki doesnt seem to consider it an environmental film though it tends to get thrown in with it, i can see why
Such an interesting story behind the conception of one of the best animated films in decades. It has everything from the struggle of the animation process to Miyazaki's classic pessimistic attitude.
Seriously, this is a visually capturing video with a structure that feel informative and interesting.
im glad you like it
As always, a pleasure. It's really nice to learn about the history of all the art we've consumed & Ghibli's origin stories are pretty interesting. Thanks again
Nausicaa of the Valley of the GOAT
Naúsicaa THE 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Still working on the subs but they should be okay for now
eh good enough
I can't believe you got Gigguk to do absolutely nothing for this video! Made it that much better.
lol
Man, what an enlightening video. This cross section of Miyazaki's early work is really revealing, and it's something I haven't heard discussed much on TH-cam and certainly not in this much detail.
Bravo.
not even on the bluray really theres never been an in depth doc on the story
Dude the production of this video is amazing. I'm tired and looking for a video to listen to whilst I doze off yet your voice and drawings keep me glued to the screen. Seriously, this is a great video and will keep me awake for the full length. I'm loving you're content
thank youuuu
Feels like there's a subset of us all up in this same Nausicaa and Arzach, moebius deep dive, I've thoroughly enjoyed studying miyazaki and moebius myself recently and this video is soothing to watch♡ thankyou Stevem.
im glad moebius is a fascinating characters although theres a fair few docs on him as it is
nausicaa is easily one of my favorite films. it left such an impact on me, and i just recently got the manga. it's really interesting knowing this history!
thank youuu
This was a brilliant video and in particular Pause And Select's contribution really hit the nail on the head with sociopolitical problems in the last few decades. Thanks for your hard work.
yeah Pause and Select (JOE) did a wonderful job
Thank you.
Thank you for giving this manga another breathe of air through the sea of corruption.
This manga has a very special place in my upbringing, where one initially starts looking at the pretty yet bleak imagery, as my comprehension of the Japanese language matures as my mind, you start to notice, discover and rediscover aspects of the narrative that starts to unfold as the old vantage points wane and new one arise. As my own persuit in sequencial story telling both in writing and visuals bursts open the depth of this narrative Pandora's Box.
glad you enjoyedd
This has been my favourite Film ever since I was young, I was always moved to tears even by the non-dubbed Japanese version with Chinese subtitles, (in the 90’s we didn’t have the English version available in Australia ). Not speaking any Japanese, I feel so spoilt by this TH-cam video going into such depth behind the production of this amazing film. Pure nostalgia putting the DVD on tonight with English dubbing, after the film finished I was longing for more, I was hoping for some production notes, sure enough TH-cam let me find this video to dive deep, now I can sleep.
Moebius’s Arzach and Nausica were both huge influences on my favorite game series of all time, Panzer Dragoon. The game series focus on flight and a strange post apocalyptic world with bioengineered weapons and mutant monsters and you can see the influences of Arzach and Nausica in it pretty clearly.
The manga is amazing, Kushana will forever be a warrior goddess to me.
her survival is pretty beautiful
I LOVE KUSHANA 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😚😚😚
The manga is waaaay better than movie, except ending
Kushana is definitely one of my favorite characters in the story
@@namvo3013 I like the ending even if it;s very dark. Rejecting a devil's bargain even if it means doing things the hard way, with no guarantee of success. And yey, maybe they can convince or threaten one of the smaller outposts to give up its secrets now that its primary mission is a failure.
It must be said that Joe Hisaishi's music for Nausicaa, perhaps more than any other soundtrack he's done, is a stunning masterpiece of mixed genres and emotion. And it's an absolute shame that his name and his work is not held up at the same level as John Williams, Ennio Moricone, or Bernard Herman.
In the Japanese field he's pretty well respected in his own right. I don't know if Joe needs the acceptance of mainstream Hollywood figures or masses, man already says hes treated like a rock star when he goes to places like Italy
@@Stevem I'm not saying he would need it. You're right. What I am saying is I think it's lousy that cinephiles and critics don't speak on his work in a similar way or with a similar recognition that they would Williams or Morricone, because his work is in many instances equally as powerful and practically inseparable from the movies it accompanies, even if it isn't as easily hummable as Williams' work.
i think this might be my favourite of all your videos now! the sheer amount of earnestness and passion your pour into all your work despite knowing that it may never get the views it deserves is so inspiring! this video is so amazing and made me want to watch every single miyazaki film all over again! thank you so much for putting your time, effort, and heart into making these videos because they're truly something to behold, you're putting something so informative and inspiring out into the world! thank you, once again.
Thanks again Rata, I think this video will do alright view wise though since its miyazaki related but yeah, there's a vision i wanted to get across
Your editing is good man.
It is indeed THE best. Really hyped for this one!
This is one of the most passionate essays I have seen on this platform, the narration really immerged me in the making of this work. You can imagine the life of animators in 1980's Japan, which sheds a new light on the themes compared to a 2020 interpretation !
love that you’re highlighting this! my favorite manga
blessed
Joe was amazing
he wasssss
Thank you for making this video ! I was planning to play it on background while drawing but it was so interesting that I couldn't take my eyes off of my screen. Nausicaa has always been my favourite movie since I was around 4 or 5 years old, and your video filled my gap of knowledge about it !
Man I love when a new stevem video rolls around. I love the Nausicaa manga so much too.
thank youuuu!
This was better than what I was hoping for. Absolutely brilliant work, Steven!
I've gotten a couple comments where people have their own Magnum Opus chooses so I might as well ask what peoples favourite Miyazaki's Product is
I think it’s nausicaä
Nausica manga. And spirited away
This video is seriously amazing, the editing, the script/narration, the passion behind it
I unironically first saw this as Warriors of the Wind ENTIRELY because of the robot they stuck on the cover that wasn't actually in the movie.
Big thank you to Pause and Select for being in the VIDEO!!
check em here- th-cam.com/channels/fpDNSkMPnmMwZHhUyplbZg.html
Thanks dude. Superb vid.
Much research, very thank
Wow really grateful for this documentary!!!!!!! Compiles and contextualizes so much around this life changing story.
Thank yo so much for making this video. I've honestly been inspired by many of your videos to work harder on what i love to do.
i have been waiting for this video for over 3 months and i’m so glad you finally released it :D
got theereee eventualllyyy
This was my favorite movie growing up. I read the manga in my last year of high school... and it's my favorite manga now, too! I can't believe that I'm still learning so much about the history of its production. Fantastic video!
thank youuu
Such a brillant video! As a Miyazaki geek, you truly had me from start to finish. Nausicaa is always one of those works that will resonate with us forever
thank you Caseyy!
It’s my favorite movie and this video shed so much light on the production and the thought that was put into it, I really appreciate the work you put into this incredible video
Nausicaa was basically my childhood whenever I wasnt watching Revenge of the Sith. I loved this movie, and watched it almost every day. Me personally
Was hoping for more about the manga itself but the behind the scenes stuff was interesting, too
I would love to see a similar video on the making of Mononoke or spirited away!!
may happen one day, howls moving casstle would happen first though if thats the case
These vids are very well researched and informative. Been a Miyazaki fan since the 80s and watching his art mature over time has been a treat. Thanks for sharing.
I've wanted this video for a long long time
and here it is
I love Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind its one of my favorite Movies of all Times.
based
You always have wonderful videos, but this really is a step beyond--beautiful work.
thank youu
THIS IS SO GOOD! Thank you for all that you do 😁. Watched the movie for the first time in 2019 and absolutely loved it.
glad you enjoyedd
Fascinating , entertaining, lovely goodness! Thank you:)
thank you for watching!
There was a lot of detail in this video and it gave me a rich understanding of the amount of energy and passion artists put into their work. An insightful and well delivered video, thanks for making this!
thank you for watchinggg
I'm blown away by the quality of this. Nausicaä especially the manga has had a powerful impact on me at different junctures in my life. Placing it within the larger context of its time and Miyazaki's own life is powerful. Thank you for this.
Never heard of Horus: Prince of the Sun before. Started watching it just now, it's really good animation - years ahead of its time.
yeah hit me pretty hard the first i saw it
Subbed after like 5 mins! What an awesome job! Can’t wait to see all you other videos. Congrats!!
Can never get over you voice. Thanks again for this look into the life of the man himself, Miyazaki!
glad you enjoyed
I think that is one of the best deep studies of Nausicaä.
For me, Nausica is the first "Anime from Japan" film that I saw when I was 12 years old. The film has a deep influence on me, but I saw only the sort version of "Warriors of the wind"" I remember the images, the argument, but I didn't know the names of the characters or the people that work on that film. Years later I found a book that talks about "the history of manga" and I found a page with the Mehve and the Ohmu talking about one manga "Original work of Miyazaki Nausicaa of the valley of the wind" at that time I already know Ghibli and the films of Kiki or Porco Rosso were my favorites, and I was waiting for Mononoke... So the film that I remember was done by Miyazaki, and I didn't know.
I bought the comic by mail, to the US, because I couldn't find it in my country, and now is one of my favorite comics, just behind "The INCAL" "Le Cycle de Cyann (The Cyann Saga)" and "Appleseed".
The film is incredible and the music evokes a lot of sensations.
But for me "Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä" is the comic from Miyazaki, and the film is an introduction to it, but I feel that is not finished.
I think that Hideaki Anno could finish it, but I think, like Steven, that Anno will not do that film with Miyazaki alive.
incal is a very cool read , appreciate the comment
Naussica Of The Valley Of The Wind is my favorite movie and I was super surprised to see a video about it in my feed since it seems no one ever talks about it. I own the manga and i've read it multiple times and I freaking love it! great video man! I loved learning more about it, insta-sub.
Thanks Steve! Was really interesting to me. And entertainingly presented! Well done!
thanks peter
Finally someone talking about this masterpiece, glad I found your channel .
appreciate it
Man with a video that good on my favorite animated movie AND on one of the best manga i got to read, i'm subscribing and going on a binge of your channel.
appreciate it
letsgooooooooo
I love the way you read the quotes. Cracking me up
needs more views, was awesome video!
Nausicäa of the Valley of the Wind is one of my favorite movies ever. I knew it was originally a manga, but I might read it now that you shown more of it. Thank you!
please doo!! its pretty mind expanding after seeing the movie although the pace is much slower and its a slow builder
Your work is amazing - thanks for this
thank you for the kind words
the interaction of dialogues between producers is fantastic, your video was excellent to watch
thank youuu
This was some next level production essay, i really hope a documentary production company stumbles into your work someday and you get a good offer, congratulations.
lol cant say id take it, thats a lot of trust to put into strangers
You and pause an iconic duo great video!
Joe did a great jobb
Buenísimo video, como lo esperamos!!! Gracias por tu dedicación!!! Náusicaa es una gran obra!!
Gracias!
The quality of this video is astonishing, was scotched from beginning to end. I learned a lot in many themes
thank you!
This is such a brilliant essay and analysis. Fantastic!
I appreciate the comment thank youu
Saw your last video, and you mentioned you animate your own videos. The art/animation in this video is beautiful, you’re very talented!
i appreciate the kind words
This is fantastic, thanks! What an excellent documentary.
thankyouuu
The Nausicaä soundtrack is really great.
It balances between ‘80s upbeat synthpop like what was popular back then with a foreboding proto-synthwave score similar to John Carpenter films, Blade Runner or The Terminator.
I could even say Nausicaä is heavily underrated in terms of Ghibli/Miyazaki scores and ‘80s proto-synthwave soundtracks.
It is not brought up as much as synthwave inspirations like Escape from New York, Blade Runner, The Terminator, Top Gun, or even AKIRA.
It's also one of the best things to introduce kids to synthwave to. It's more family-friendly than most of John Carpenter's films or Blade Runner but it's not as outdated and cheesy as something like He-Man. For family-friendly (PG-13 and below) synthwave works, I would recommend this, Big Trouble in Little China, and Top Gun.
john carpender is a king
Wow, Brother, what a great video! I've had Starting Point and Turning Point in my library for years, but unread. You've inspired me. And Nausicaä has always been in my Miyazaki top 5, and now I understand much more why that is. 1,000,000 thanks!
thank you dude glad you enjoyeddd
Quality content. Thanks.
The prospect of a Hideaki Anno version of Nausicaä at some point in the future has me hyped.
Just brilliant work here; looking forward to more!
anno vid coming eventuallly
@@Stevem delightful!
Exceptional video Strven! One of your best works :) Nausicaa was allways one of my all time favorite movies, damnn, it's even one of the first environmental movies if not the first.
Defenetly an ECO seal of approval
see Miyazaki talks about this at one point saying that eco cant be a core of a film concretely and that wasn't really what the plan was but of course, he is pro eco movements
Great work. Your level of application to your work is admirable. :)
thank you
Finished the manga recently.
The film about Nausicaa is great. But the manga is on another level. It is just a masterpiece, it is incredibly deep, epic and beautiful. One of the best mangas, even one of the best pieces of art ever created.
I stumbled on this by accident and man your style is so good, you're so engaging and smooth with words
thank youu for the kind words im glad you found it
STEVEM back at it again with another banger video!
thank youuuu
Man, these documentaries are awesome.
This is far beyond why I was expecting. Great job, It’s worth rewatching
thank you!
master piece…. subscribed.!!
my favorite! the art, the music, SO GOOD
good stuff
What an amazing video thanks u for the great effort
thankyou windwaker you are a very stylish game
Great video!
Brilliant making of, thank you very much! Both "Starting Point" are such incredible books, I loved the great effort this video has in order to convey perfectly the tragic and crazily funny this story is!
thank youuuu
@@Stevem Btw, yesterday when I mentioned the forbidden "solar..." word, thinking back on Future Boy Conan, one can feel a certain hopeful message. But then, when you watch the latest documentaries that came out in the past years on Miya-san... You can definitely see his pessimism growing bigger and harder...
@@AndresCiambotti he's been pretty pessimistic for a long time, however he rarely lets it effect the projects he's working on, the original novel future boy conan was based on, to Miyazaki was far to bleak so he changed it
This video is really great I hope this channel has more and more success
I hope so too , like and share etc
Really great video!
thank youuu
OMG I enjoyed this sooooo much
Your quality is always chefs kiss

A brilliant video which ended bittersweet for me as I've been looking for that Tsurumi book for two decades now and there's still no English translation so....yup...it's a hard life being a thanatologist...
Amazing Documentary Video👍
thank youuuu
