He said "I'll keep making anime until the day I die"

Long live the king?

Why not lol. I don't even understand in first place why did he make such a statement: *ever*. Such an unpleasant word to hear / read. We're fucking humans and we're ephemeral and fickle. So, again, why not?!

Still, despite the trolling, Miyazaki has more talent in a single pubic hair then almost every other anime screen writers/directors combined today.

He'll just come out of retirement after death anyways.

Apparently he is done making films, but he's working on manga still.

While I am a Ghibli fan, Miyazaki is overrated as fuck. There are plenty of better directors.

He'll come back to life as a zombie one day and be like "Sorry, I wasn't done yet" lol

Also, the man just making shorts though... Probably some sort of project for the ghibli museum..
HOW TO SAVE ANIME IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

  1. To have Mars of Destruction, Skelter Heaven, and Pupa properly adapted in TV series form by Madhouse
  2. To have Inferno Cop properly adapted in TV series form by Bones, director: Urobuchi Gen
  3. An anime crossover of Mushishi x ARIA x Haibane Renmei.


Should even one of the above conditions cannot be done, anime is still at risk.

I guess he'll be more focused on secondary roles, like writing or animating the works of other directors. It's likely that he doesn't make another full length movie but I guess a few shorts here and there. Hopefully this will lead to the shorts in the Ghibli museum being finally aired in a DVD-BR compilation.

Currently the main problem of Ghibli, though, is not whether Miyazaki retires or not, it is the lack of alternatives for the future. I hope they manage to re-structure the studio and give some chance to rising or even confirmed talents (I'm still waiting for a full-length project of Yoshiyuki Momose) instead of basically changing Miyazaki and Takahata for Goro and Yonebayashi.

Well, in case it could still be saved, you've just managed to fully ruin it.

Old news. He didn't say he would stop working altogether back when he announced his "final retirement". He just wont be making films anymore.
