This is Ghibli's version of the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, a famous Japanese folk tale. It has been in production for a few years, and Takahata has been talking about directing it for an even longer time. This is also Takahata's first new film in 14 years. |

Consider me hyped. Takahata is the best director at Ghibli for me, and seeing him do a new project is wonderful. I'm confident this movie will be great, if it has this much time and thought invested into it.
Don't know much about the folktale, but seems interesting enough. Eager to see Ghibli and Takahata's vision of it. |

Looking forward to seeing more about this, tale of the bamboo cutter is one of my favorites (still crossing my fingers for the continuation of Howl's Castle to be animated one day though).
Let's hope for such endearing Kaguya design as in Okami, yes? |

Looks interesting i would like to check this out I was afraid that uncut animation was the style and it had me worried.
I would rather they not, they did not do the the first book justice at all. Also, the other books don't have Sophie and Howl as main characters so they aren't really too much of a sequel. They would be better off doing some of the Crestomanci ones, but i don't want they to ruin another book. Last edited by Leo_Otaku; 2013-10-27 at 22:12. |

Why does nobody care about the good anime ;_;
Three-minute trailer. Looking as great as ever, with that delicious Takahata realism applied to this aesthetic. |

So if it's true that this movie is getting a lukewarm reception in general, then this fact kinda saddens me.
