| I have the impression that Hayao Miyazaki = Studio Ghibli. Although his son also directed some of his films, I feel that Hayao Miyazaki's films are more interesting. I feel that the talent that could succeed him has drifted away from Studio Ghibli. I am marked by the fact that the studio seems to be in decline after he passes away. I often hear him declare his retirement, but I think he will never retire because I basically believe that he will continue to make films until he dies. Coming to MAL, for the first time, I was surprised to see many people using images as internet memes of words he never said at all. The anime was a mistake. it is nothing but garbage. Those who identify as "otaku",they sicken me deeply. These are words that the translator added on his own, not his own words. I have a stronger image of Yoshiyuki Tomino commenting raggedly about anime, not Hayao Miyazaki. |

| Haven’t really liked anything Miyazaki has made since 1995, though the studio’s output from before then are 100% classics, and the non-Miyazaki directors at the studio have made some great stuff since then as well |

| I know little about Miyazaki as a person, just a bit from clips I've seen of him, and most of those would be 20+ years old now. He seems like a passionate man, and I think that his success and his studio's success are good evidence of said passion. He also struck me as a sentimental and sensitive sort of fellow, though if I had to guess he also has some cutthroat business sensibilities. As for Ghibli as a studio, I've watched a share of their productions and most of those are among my favorite pieces of media, from animation to soundtracks. I have not watched any of the more recent works from the studio, with Howl's Moving Castle being the last thing I watched some years ago now, so I haven't anything more to say regarding their recent works, successes, and failures. |
| I don't know if this is a weird take or a triggering one: to me, Ghibli and Miyazaki movies aren't "anime." They're just... movies. That are animated. I've been watching Ghibli movies long before I started watching anime, and I just can't think of those movies as "anime" in my head. I admit I used to think they were "better than anime," but as I've watched more anime I no longer think that. But I still feel like they're "something else." I've watched most of the movies from Ghibli, barring 2-3. Many of the movies are dear to my heart. Spirited Away is one of my favorites. Some of them I didn't really enjoy (most of them post-Spirited Away). As for the studio and the man himself, at this point they feel like relics from a bygone era (not meaning it as an insult). It feels like they're stubbornly holding on to a style and a set of values that already disappeared 20+ years ago. Maybe that's to do with Miyazaki's iron grip on the studio. But even if Ghibli were to change and move on, I wonder if they can still preserve their strengths and their unique identity. A lot of the time, thinking about them just makes me sad. |
| It is good. That is all I will say about it. |
| not every movie unfortunately but when the story is palatable then it would be a blast if watching in cinema. i don't like being cold in cinema so i'm happy that at least one or two ghibli stuff is actually enjoyable. i don't really dig into people's life but when they are successful i feel happy for them. |
| "What do you think of Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli?" I think it's the best source material for some bizarre fantasies. On a more serious note, I grew up with some of his movies, Totoro is my neighbour as he lives deep in my heart. |
