| Hayao Miyazaki, currently 67 years old, told reporters at the Venice International Film Festival that it will be at least another 3 years until his next project. He plans to get a younger generation of animators to help him. Miyazaki also gave his support to the use of animation without the use of computers, stating that he will continue to use his pencil for as long as he can. By the time his next project comes out, he will be over 70 years old. For more information: ANN |
| I am saddened. |
 |
| Well it's good to see he isn't done with anime yet, but at his age, I think this will likely be his last one. With three years, I'm sure it will be spectacular. Looking forward to it!!! |

 I take icon requests. |
Jico said: fun to see someone who still does it old school style, since some people have taken it to far where it barley resembles anime anymore. I agree. The older anime series drawn by hand seem to have a different air about them than the newer ones. Maybe I'm just old school, but I miss them dearly. At least Miyazaki is still considering making more anime and not just retiring. |
| I love his movies :D. He's 67 years old! No way, I thought that he was older :O.... 3 years until his next film? NOO!!! |

The new ones can't compare to the old ones, there's just some sort of charm that they're lacking.Jico said: fun to see someone who still does it old school style, since some people have taken it to far where it barley resembles anime anymore.

| Pencil > CGI, any day. I hope that people continue to make anime without the use of computers. |
| I'm back. |
| With three years I hope it's good. And yeah, pencil > CGI definitely. |

| D: aww... 3 years? Sadness... I hope he stays in good health. |
     |
| People like this only retire when they die. =p Hopefully the 3 years of vacancy will be used as times for inspiration and fresh ideas and his next Piece will also be surprising and brilliant. As reminder, his last Piece opened the Venice Festival and was immediatly considered the Master Piece of the Festival. The two commentators I heard said that it their travel was worth because of his movie. =) |

| Nice to see him take a stand against the computerization of animation. His word must carry a lot of weight, hopefully he'll make some people think twice before inserting CGI everywhere. I am a little sad to hear that it'll be another 3 years (or more!) until his next project, but then again, I've yet to see many of his existing pieces, so I should not complain. |
 |
| It's great to see someone sticking with the old style and not having any CGI. |

| I agree that pencil > CGI but its just the fact that computers are so much cheaper to animate with, and take less time. But maybe someday people will realize that quality is better than quality. Follow Miyazaki's example. |
| Three years from now is going to be a pain Since I will have so many things going on at that time. |
     |
| I'm so happy he's still making movies though. Also, I'm happy he hasn't changed from using his pencil. His movies always are beautiful animation, and then when you think about all the work that goes into them it's just even more impressive. |
| I honestly don't care if pencil or computer is better (ie if it retains a 2d feel to it) it's the actual show that matters. I can see some stuff that would make good use of CGI though like the sci-fi and mecha genre or something but overall studios should keep the CGI to a min. Well, how many today use the old style? At least at some percentage anyways? Although 3 years is a long time to wait, I want Miyazaki to take his time. I know it'll be a masterpiece because of the past work he has done. |
| man i love his movies cant wait for that movie i bet its gonna be freaking awesome!!! |
 |
| Well, three years isn't too long of a wait. I'm sure it will be worth the wait anyway. I'm glad that Miyazaki is still for the traditional arts. I know I definitely prefer it to the more CG generated stuff >.> |
  |
| unfortunately its cost effective to use computers so eventually animators will all resort to that method fo animating. in a business where time is money, only those who see the esthetics and beauty of hand drawn anime can still stick to their guns bu tonly if they have the capital to support such work. in addition, Miyazaki commands the respect of his peers so he can afford to be stubborn. someday hand drawn anime/animation will be a thing of the past.....sad indeed. |
| Is there any word on what he plans to make? |
| That is quite sad, but I'm still happy that he is still making movies. |
    |
| Well, at least we know it'll be something good. |
| sweet |
 |
| His work is alway amazing! Looking forward to his next film! |
| awww I'll look forward to this :] I feel like if he was my grandfather ahahaha :3 |
Sick-Bastard said: Pencil > CGI, any day. I hope that people continue to make anime without the use of computers. Agreed. I love Miyazaki's movies and I can't wait for this one :D But I'll try! |
| Aww, that's sad that'll it'll be 3 years, but I'm sure his next work shall be very exciting <3 |
     |
| I don't think Shinkai will have anything to do with Miyazaki and Ghibli at all. From what I've seen the person closest to person to 'the next Miyazaki' is Mamoru Hosoda (he was originally slated to direct Howl's anyway (but gave it up to work on Tokikake (oh the irony))). |

| CGI is over rated i prefer pencil i cant wait for this next project tho |
 I signed my screen and now its all smeary "When you meet your God tell him to leave me alone." check out my bloghttp://corpse69.wordpress.com/ fix MAL already |
| even tho he is old, he is one of the best animation maker even tho he uses the pencil over cgi, director and producer in the business. his films are epic on every meaning of the word. i take my hat at him, banzai for miyazaki |

| Hes still pretty young compared to my dad :P Its nice to know that some animators like to use pencil and paper :3 |
| Long live Miyazaki! |
 |
| D: Aw. Well, at least there's still gonna be new stuff from him. |
| Han yeah, they announced that at the informations on TV last night...It would be great, even if I always prefer the old-school manner, it-means ...Pencil. Why does everyone fall to the pixel world?:( Hope that he won't die 'til 2010/2011.... |

Music is from the soul~ ♥ |
| Ok, just to ask for all of us who aren't in the know. Who is this guy and what has he done? I mean this was a two page love in and not once did any one directly mention any of his stuff. I just got sucked into this by that alone. Please enlighten me to the glory that is good o'l what's his name. |

Type in "Hayao Miyzaki" into the search text box and press the appropriate button. Ta-dah. |
| kudos to Miyazaki... I highly admire this person because of all the anime movies he had done. Looking forward to Ghibli's newly made animes also. Miyazaki=win. |

Just an amazing guy, if you're still curious of who he is, check my Top1 Favorite People in my profile. |

| i think even if it take more than 3 years as long the show is great the time doesn't mather |
     |
| Great to see that old man is still kicking it old school, and hasn't quit just yet :) I'm soo excited, though it's gonna be around 3 years from now. I wish for him to have the best of health lol |
 |
| What an admirable man. I can't wait for 3 years! It'll be worth it, though. |
