  • Although, this is our first episode covering Hayao Miyazaki, we previously recorded two episodes on films done by his contemporaries at Studio Ghibli: Isao Takahata’s The Tale of Princess Kaguya and Yoshifumi Kondo’s Whisper of the Heart — if you liked this podcast, be sure to check those out!
  • Since Grant mentioned it on the show, here’s a link to Dawn’s Anime Nostalgia: The Mystery of Miami Mike episode.
  • Finally, the ten minute, marginally Nausicaa related, short by Shinji Higuchi and Hideaki Anno: A Giant God Warrior Appears in Tokyo.
