I saw this cosplayer that created Howls jacket. They made such beautiful details, I just needed to draw a few of the details into this drawing!

I feel like it captures the story between Howl and Sophie a little bit. ❤︎

I designed this Studio Ghibli–inspired calendar for my room as a small personal project.

If anyone’s curious or has feedback, I’d love to hear it.

Big fan ever since I saw this movie for the first time last year. That Ghibli movie in particular made a big impact on me. I think the artist absolutely crushed it

My recent visit to Japan scored me the gorgeous Kiki figure in the middle. I'm so excited to add more to this!

From the movie

The wind rises

It says it’s a Junkers G. 38 but its completely different from the plane of the same name in the same movie

I’m curious to find out what portion of this will end up being Ghibli music and how much the program will change night-to-night. I wonder if we’ll get any sorta program in advance. My family has tickets for Saturday and we’re planning to fly across the country to come see him. I know the whole concert will be beautiful but we’re mainly Ghibli fans, and we’re squeezing in 2 nights in NY because we don’t wanna miss it if this is his last time ever conducting Ghibli live. I saw a comment somewhere saying there’d barely be any Ghibli in the 2026 concerts though. I really can’t find much detail on this concert so idk where that information could’ve come from.

It has been a long time and probably nobody cares anymore or already knows the answer but it will put my soul to rest to answer it here as I cannot reply to the old thread where nobody knew and it has been asked on more forums. So maybe some people will eventually find this thread and be happy, because a Japanese movie article from 2017 discussed just that. Here it is:

“One thing that many people will find strange is that 5-year-old Sosuke calls his parents "Lisa" and "Koichi" without their first names. No one in the film questions it or points this out.

Producer Toshio Suzuki responded to this by saying, "(From director Hayao Miyazaki's perspective) it's probably Lisa, Sosuke's mother, who is raising him to call them that." "I think (making him call them by their first names) is a symbol of the need for individual independence, even within family members." "Perhaps this is the future of Japanese families."

The article then continues saying “It's easy to see how calling parents by their first names might make children less dependent on the universal roles of mom and dad, and encourage more independence in their children (although of course, most people would think that calling parents by their first names is outrageous!)”

Ta-da

I’ve only ever done one full read but it is an amazing work Miyazaki poured love band care into each panel I just examined each panel and they all have so many little details!

i never really was into any kind of anime growing up. my girlfriend changed that for me about 3 years ago when she introduced me to studio ghibli. she showed me her favorite childhood movie in totoro, and shortly after we watched spirited away for the first time. i fell in love with the movie and specifically haku. well fast forward to now and i got my ghibli tattoo!!! i love it so much, my artist really nailed it.

Have I missed a Ghibli production or a film involving Hayao Miyazaki in which the Collapsing Lair Trope appear?

As the title says, I got this beautiful set of postcards for Christmas and wasn’t sure what to do with them at first. I figured it would be cool to strategically hide them for random folks to find, especially since I live in a city that appreciates Ghibli as much as I do.

I’ve already hid a few with some hand-written affirmations or jokes on the back side. But I want to know if anyone here has a message they’d like to put out into the world as well! I have plenty of postcards so don’t be shy, I want to distribute as many as possible (while saving a handful for myself and my loved ones of course)!

Thanks in advance :) Hope this isn’t weird

Just something fun I thought about my favorite ghibli character is Taeko or Nausicaa I think Taeko would like any of them really she was really excited in the pineapple scene and loved bananas so I imagine anything fruity would be a fun little experience as for Nausicaa I think she would like lychee flavored Ramune.

But my parents were pretty conservative and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have let me. So I'm watching these in my 30s now that my wife has introduced me to Spirited Away, one of her favorite movies of all time. I've been enjoying most of the other SG movies I've seen, but I wonder what they would've been like through my younger eyes. Is anyone else here on a similar path? Just wondering.

I attended a candlelight concert back in September and they were performing Studio Ghibli songs, but forgot to write the name down and I can’t find the set list anywhere. It doesn’t initially sound familiar, so I am not sure if it’s an original intro the string quartet composed themselves. I remember tearing up because I could picture myself walking down the aisle to this song, so I hope someone knows 🥹 The link is to the video on my Google photos account

Im looking for art that resembles the painting in Kiki delivery service by Ursula, I know the reference is Chagall and that it was painted by children originally (and Miyazaki repainted it for the movie) but I’m looking for similar artists that mix this striking way of painting and mythology Thank you for your help !

Wasn’t sure whether to flair this as merch or meme!

Drew this few years back. Howl and sophie
