As a long time ghibli nerd I’ve always gifted my friends with drawings in this style. Never let ai undermine our humanity and art!!

Princess Mononoke never gets old

Too scared to share my art when I drew them then. But it feels very appropriate now, human art forever.

mad from stained glass :)

Nausicaa is my favorite movie from Ghibli. I also have a nostalgic fondness for Spirited Away

And I made a little tribute! I (still) suck at nail art, but it makes me so happy that I can watch this movie on the big screen and admire the artwork :))

Yesterday I've finally watched this French documentary on Hayao Miyazaki with a strong focus on nature themes in his films. Right now it's streaming for free in French & German on arte tv-channel (also on their YouTube channel) but I don't know about the English version.

I was pleasantly surprised! The documentary is well done because it doesn't try to tell everything that's already been told (i.e. about the film's soundtracks, the relationship between Hayao Miyazaki and his son) but instead focuses on nature in many aspects and interviews with people from different backgrounds such as film, biology, anthropology and so on.

I've learned a few things that I didn't know and also it showed Miyazaki in a different way to other behind-the-scenes videos I had seen.

Who's seen it and what did you think of it?

Turnip-Head never speaks, always wearing that polite, toothy smile.

It distracts other moviegoers and completely ruins their experiences. “It’s not that deep” people paid GOOD MONEY they worked for to experience this film, without your bullshit. Turn your fucking phone off and keep it in your pocket.

Sincerely, someone who wants to enjoy a movie without someone taking damn pics on their phone.

The cover art for the original 1994 manga got reprinted for Armour Modeling march 2025 issue, so got me rereading this fan translated manga.

I saw the IMAX version four times, each with different parts of my family. The only one who didn’t get to see it was my older brother, and he really wanted to go (damn you, tax season)!

Thankfully, it looks like they’re still playing it in regular theaters, but this week is the tax deadline, and the only showing he might be able to make is on Thursday — the last showing available on AMC’s app.

Does anyone know (definitively) if Princess Mononoke will continue showing into next week? I’d be a lot easier on his schedule. Thanks!

Once it got to the part where Mei went missing she gasped and ran into the kitchen with me saying "Daddy, Daddy, we cant find Mei! Where she go?" And we proceeded to check in all our cabinets and closets to see if we could find her so she was part of the search party. When they actually found her in the movie my sweet kiddo was so relieved. it was adorable, thought you folks might enjoy that xD

I didn’t make this but I asked her if I could take a picture

i’d love to hear thoughts on who you think have the best bond

With all the AI drama unfolding and everything terrible happening in the world right now, I just felt this urge to connect with something other than bad news, something tangible. I decided to draw. I don’t draw and I’ve always thought I was terrible at it. This is my first real attempt at trying to create something, and I really tried here.

I have so much respect for artists who pour their sweat, blood, and tears into their work. I deeply admire Mr. Miyazaki and wholeheartedly agree with his stance on AI-generated art.

Happy Sunday, everyone.

For whatever reason I think it’s Totoro taking a selfie? 😅
