Ummm, there've been quite a few retrospectives devoted to Hayao Miyazaki in North America over the years. I know I attended one in New York in 1999 and Miyazaki himself came unannounced to introduce MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO to the crowd at the Museum of Modern Art and they went nuts.

We went to the Academy Museum yesterday to see the Hayao Miyazaki exhibit described above (my youngest loves Totoro and it was for her birthday). It's a brand new museum, and the entire top floor is basically dedicated to the exhibit (well, one room is a Pixar Zoetrope but it was inspired by an earlier Totoro one). Cool experience, though in compliance with Miyazaki's wishes absolutely no picture taking in the exhibit itself.

Ghibli Producer Suzuki Says Miyazaki's Next Film is "Still in Progress"

The film is based on Yoshino Genzaburo's 1937 novel

Toshio Suzuki, producer of Studio Ghibli, attended the opening ceremony of the "Toshio Suzuki and Ghibli Exhibition" held at Terada Warehouse in Tennozu, Tokyo, on June 30 and discussed the studio's current activities with the press. During the discussion, he confirmed that production of Hayao Miyazaki's new film How Do You Live?, which is based on Yoshino Genzaburo's 1937 novel of the same name, is still in progress.

At the first interview for the exhibition, which took place in 2019, Suzuki said of the release of How Do You Live?, "Three years from now...?" Almost three years have passed since then. He was asked about the current status of the film and answered, "It's a unique question... As already announced, Hayao Miyazaki has been working on How Do You Live?. It has been a long time, but the production is still in progress." No further details seemed to be revealed.

Also, he reported, "My most important job is... Ghibli used to mass-produce a film every two years, but since we only make one every once in a while these days, I don't want people to forget about us, so I'm doing some writing and other production work to make sure Ghibli is not forgotten."

Seems like they're not suing Ghibli or Netflix but the ones who sold the rights, but I don't think this will impact the Netflix deal since the VOD rights they're fighting about expired last year anyway. At least that's how I read it. I'm sure HBO max is looking to get out of their ghibli deal, however long it's lasted, so maybe Netflix picks it up in the US as well eventually.

I never watched an animated feature as a stage play but I watched Zatoichi Live and that was surprisingly great.

Miyazaki Hayao’s Final Film ‘How Do You Live’: Maximum Secrecy to Be Maintained Until Release

Producer hints that widely assumed plot details may be wrong.

Studio Ghibli, the iconic Japanese animation studio, will maintain a cloud of secrecy for as long as possible around “How Do You Live,” the final film from maestro Miyazaki Hayao (“Spirited Away,” “Howl’s Moving Castle,” “Princess Mononoke”).

The new movie is scheduled to arrive in theaters in Japan on July 14, but Studio Ghibli and its partners will do away with pre-release advertising and advanced information. To date it has released only a single enigmatic poster of a bird.
In a long interview with Bungei Shunju magazine now available on YouTube, Studio Ghibli president and producer Suzuki Toshio explained the unusual strategy as a ploy to whet the appetites of fans. They have been denied a new film by Miyazaki film since the 2013 “The Wind Rises.”

“They’ll want to see for themselves what the film is about,” Suzuki said. “And to do that, they’ll have to go a theater.”

When the magazine’s editor mentioned that the film is reportedly based on “How Do You Live,” a 1937 coming-of-age novel by Genzaburo Yoshino with a young male protagonist, Suzuki said that Miyazaki “only borrowed the title,” implying that plot descriptions available on the Internet based on summaries of Yoshino’s novel may be incorrect. Miyazaki, however, has previously called “How Do You Live” one of his favorite books.

Not mentioned by Suzuki, though known to long-time Studio Ghibli observers, is that Miyazaki’s perfectionism has previously led to production delays. These have meant that while Miyazaki films may hit their opening dates, they have done so minus the usual weeks and months of press screenings by distributor Toho.

Releasing no ads, trailers or information about the voice cast, however, is an extreme milestone, even for Studio Ghibli.

The film has been pre-sold in overseas territories, but currently has no foreign release dates penciled in. Gkids is set as its U.S. distributor.

Saw this on a plane to Japan (first time) and liked it well enough, though it hits all the same beats as the original even as a sequel.

On a side note, got to go to the recently opened Ghibli park, which is basically a bunch of stuff built on the 2005 Expo Aichi Commemorative Park. It is a pain and a half to get tickets and almost impossible for foreigners without some inside help. Three of the five planned sites are up:

Ghibli's Grand Warehouse, which is the main attraction. Basically a hodgepodge of different things to do and see all Ghibli related. You have a life sized Yubaba from Spirited Away, the robot from Castle in the Sky, a kids area with a Catbus, and several exhibitions including picture taking and an exhibition of the food presented in Ghibli films.

Hill of Youth, which is basically a recreation of the house from Whisper of the Heart.

Dondoko Forest, which is a recreation of the house from Totoro (which apparently was built for the expo originally), and is quite a ways away from the rest of the venue.

Unlike the Ghibli museum, you can take photos in most places here and it's fantastic for big fans. It's not an amusement park like Disney by any means (ie: not really any themed rides) but that probably fits with the spirit of Ghibli. Goro is in charge of the park and he agreed to do it to honor his father's retirement, but then his father did one last film which came out after the park opened so as usual he got the short end of the stick.

I regret two things: one that we didn't get an earlier slot to go (we went in the afternoon but basically ran out of time to really go through the shop, which was packed, and even missed the short movie they were showing) and that I didn't prepare my family a bit more by watching/rewatching the movies. To the uninitiated, two out of the three attractions just look like old Japanese houses.
