Any Ghibli film is something to look forward to. I'd still rather see Miyazaki's final work, though...

What do you mean Miyazaki's final work? Is he not going to make more movies?

OT: Sounds interesting. Looking forward to it.

No, Miyazaki retired from directing films, he is working as a full-time mangaka now, his new series about Sengoku era should start anytime soon.

Just because some of them are overrated doesn't mean that all of them will be.

Also, this seems interesting, so might watch it.

Then you should have mentioned that on your first post
Leaving that out made me judge the statement by its seeming intention rather than the exact wording.

This is nothing new. Arrietty's setting was also changed to Japan.
