So i was looking at ANN and i saw something that picked my curiosity.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2016-05-23/justin-leach-dai-sato-name-promising-anime-directors-to-watch/.102421

There was a talk at New York's Japan Society (didnt know it was a thing) with Justin Leach & Dai Sato, 2 members of Japan Society's Innovators Network (also didnt know it was a thing), about ''The State of Japanese Animation in a Post-Miyazaki World'' (damn) and who could be the next Miyazaki. So they picked a bunch of directors (4 well known and 4 up and coming directors) in the anime industry and talked about why they think they could be ... the one.



What do you think about their choices ?
Who do you think they forgot or shouldn't be here ?

For the people who just doesn't want to watch the video, they picked:


IMO: It's alright but some of their choice feels pretty weird. (Like Daizen Komatsuda and Dice & Robert but i dont really know these two.)

Please have a real discussion (I KNOW ITS A LOT TO ASK FOR MAL) and plz moderators dont block the thread. ;-;

Daizen Komatsuda brings improvements to the facial expressions of 2.5D animation (or cel-shaded animation) if you watch Bubuki Buranki, so he is fine since the future is headed towards 2.5D animation/graphics anyway

but definitely the movies of this guy http://myanimelist.net/people/5067/Mamoru_Hosoda seems modern Ghibli

Yeah, even if Bubuki wasnt that great storywise (but its ok because the second season is coming), dat cel-shaded/2.5D animation was pretty damn good.

As far as I've seen I would say Mamoru Hosoda. Then again I've only seen Wolf Children from him. The thing is Miyazaki is somewhat like the Spielberg of anime so it would be hard for anyone to do so, but based on Wolf Children alone Hosoda seems to get a similar vibe as him.

If one person isn't going to be the next Miyazaki it's Hideaki Anno. He's too cynical for that and I doubt Miyazaki would ever milk one of his works like Anno does Evangelion.

Makoto Shinkai has already proven he can do a Ghibli film when he made Children Who Chase Lost Voices, so my vote goes to him. :V

This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi!

I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom:

"Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news.
Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people.
Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation.
There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime.
You should be watching Carole & Tuesday."

could be Yuasa, Anno, Hosoda.. but I'd rather not want to have 'the next miyazaki' title on them.

BBK was pretty much in-between for me, but as far as 2.5D goes, that was really good for an anime. I'd like to see more upcoming works from him!

Shame Hara Keiichi isn't there (the guy who did Miss Hokusai) but I guess in the end he didn't do enough personal projects...

But yeah the whole "next Miyazaki" is a relative thing since the real Miyazaki had creative and economic circumstances that won't ever happen again.

I wouldn't be surprised if other people had storyboard and co-writing credits. That's normal for movies. But which movies did he not write and direct?

This list has no problem, how ever those are the titles that he worked on. Any other title that I saw advertisements for were proposing them as new Miyazaki movies, as if any Ghibli movie is interchangeable with Miyazaki. Even before I got to America, I saw multiple talk on how all of this is farse.

I understand your posts above and reply to Ezekiel enough to know that they are full of the same ambiguities and lack of data to back up your claims, they basically insist but refuse to give evidence or name specifics. Basically the only thing you say is that a lot of the Ghibli movies are advertised as Miyazaki's, true that, however you haven't proved or even linked it yet to the reasons why people left Ghibli. Again, stop trying to dodge and answer the simple and straightforward question (don't worry, I don't come up with excuses about "subliminal messages") I asked you in post #19.

And enough with your ridiculous passive-aggressiveness. I haven't had a single problem to understand what people say and argue in >5 years of interaction with MAL and I'm not going to have it now just because you want to build artificial layers of cryptic bullshit in your posts.

See? We are getting somewhere.I don't know why you could not start with that to begin with, instead of talking about games. You asked me for names, I told you that Hiromasa had problems with Miyazaki. Some news say he left volunteerly, interviews say that he did not just leave Ghibli, but is on a break. (The same type of break Kojima was sent to by Konami, before they kicked him out). When I said that you don't understand subliminal messages I was talking about 22.
If you are not ready for a change after 5 w/e years on mal, please do not start it. I don't want to be responsible for your mental breakdown.

NICE. FINALLY.

I am asking this specifically because I do not find any source that confirms your version for any creator/storyboarder/whatever of Ghibli. I'm sure there must be and specially with a guy like Miyazaki who has a kind of difficult character (look no further than his incident with Goro) and keeps very tight work philosophies. My question was out of curiosity. Everything I find out there are sources that basically say that Hiromasa left Ghibli because he wanted to start his own projects. The other possible one was Hosoda, who left his Howl's moving castle project in Ghibli but according to what I've found it was not due to disagreements but rather to the stagnation of the project.

There was an interview that I saw a translation to Russian that talked about the problems between them 2, it followed the same format as the scandal with Kojima (sorry, I don't know if you know who this is), I can't think of something else to compare it to. From my other reply you could find that the rest is based on other discussions I saw through the years.
I know how hard it can be to be under stress when getting a degree, especially doing internships and research. Remember that your health is at most importance, don't hesitate to message me if you want to talk about it.

I know which movies were made by Miyazaki. I don't know why you brought it up in the first place as if I were some casual. This information can be easily found.

I don't have a list for every nobody that comes to work for Miyazaki, all I know is what I read and what I hear.

I wasn't asking you to name people who have been wronged, I was asking which of the movies I listed were not made by him. But you say all of them are his, so okay.

Although he directed two of my favorite anime of all time, and also wrote the script to another one of my favorites, I still believe he gets way too much credit than he deserves.

His themes are reused, his characters' personalities as well, and also the character designs usually look too similar and lack detail. His older films feel more like direct-to-DVD, rather than theatrical, although that might have been his goal - by making them feel smaller (My neighbor Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service), they also become more personal.

Still, when he's good (Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke), he creates masterpieces.

Have yet to watch The Wind Rises, though.

Yep, 'proper noun', 'common name' or 'proper name' a name used for an individual person, place, or organization, spelled with an initial capital letter, e.g. In English, proper names in their primary application cannot normally be modified by an article or other determiner. (credits to Google and other stuff).

They did quite a long ago. But Mr. Anno prefers to hide in his cave with 'Eva 4.? (You Will Never Ever) Finish the Franchise' and Godzilla toys. Well, he loves toku and it's his personal choice, can't blame the man.
