But Miyazaki tends to look back instead of looking forward, inward instead of outward, looking at treasures of futures past that might have been. Much of anime in the past 20 years has concentrated on a utopian future, filled with technological wizardry and innovation, which is abundant in Japanese culture. Compare this to his contemporaries who have to rely on cutesy gimmicks, frantic pacing, or glitzy style to draw in audience interest.īut its "what" he illustrates that captures our hearts as well as our minds. It allows for his characters and narrative to "breathe" (and breathe deeply), with moments of contemplation and authentic feeling taking hold. Like the very best of Japanese animation, there is a warmth and softness to his illustrations (thanks to his pristine watercolor motifs) that make it almost effortless for viewers to accept and acclimatize to what unfolds on the screen. Miyazaki accomplishes this not only by his storytelling techniques, but also through his visual artistry. To know that children will grasp and want to grasp his story and ideas. It takes a deep wisdom and understanding of youth to be able to carry out this vision. But despite this moral complexity for an animated film, it all fits Miyazaki's big picture, and in the end we see it. For much of the film, there is no one problem/solution. The film's story does concern good versus evil, but they aren't manifested in simplistic ways. Miyazaki's refusal to narrow down conflict to two or even three sides is refreshing, and quite admirable considering its target audience. The film's largest creations, the ohmus, are wholly original, and are almost proof that the eyes are the window to the soul. It's huge arthropod denizens never come off as oozing grotesques, but wondrous (though scary) creatures. Here, the toxic jungle isn't so much an inhospitable realm as it is a fearsome marvel of nature. He does so with positive reinforcement, hardly ever resorting to demonizing, moralizing, or sermonizing. In every film since he has made his case for man to grow closer to nature as a return to the olden days. The film is considered to be the first of Miyazaki's works to showcase his strong environmental inclinations. Ranging from underground caverns, to heart of the toxic Jungle, and even to the very stratosphere. This leads to various adventures, escapes, revelations, and locales of staggering creativity. The Valley soon learns that its ominous load is a prize sought by warring kingdoms, one of which lays siege to the Valley. Having come from the neighboring jungle, it brings spores which threaten the Valley's forest, as well as an uneasy cargo. That same evening a massive airship crashes near the valley, attacked by an insect swarm. He has returned from his search for a prophesied savior only to return with grim news. One day she is visited by Lord Yupa, a noted Valley resident revered for his wisdom and unparalleled swordsmanship. One remaining beacon is the Valley of The Wind, a peaceful and prosperous feudal community, seemingly protected from the jungle by its bordering forest and strong winds. A few kingdoms remain, at war with the jungle and each other. A vast toxic jungle envelops the land, teeming with monstrous insects, hostile to anything that disturbs the expanse.
