Synopsis

A short TV advertising spot featuring a small green pig with enormous eyes.

The title Nandarou implies that even its creators didn't really know what kind of creature it was supposed to be. However, NTV (Nihon TV) chose it as their station's mascot.

Mixed Feelings

This was the other TV short by Ghibli, along with Sora Iro no Tane, to be aired in November of 1992.

The art is more in line with what I expect from Ghibli than it was in Sora Iro no Tane, complete with an eccentric and immediately lovable mascot creature.

Even though there wasn't a background song to accompany Nandarou, it's sound effects make up for that thanks to signature Ghibli charm.

I recommend this for Ghibli aficionados. It's impressive that they can instill charm into something less than a minute long.

Say what you will about Ghibli and Miyazaki, but they know how to catch ...
