Kiki’s Delivery Service and My Neighbour Totoro are here to add anime flair to your lunch this cherry blossom season.
If you grew up watching this pre-Ghibli anime film, don’t miss the chance to revel in nostalgia!
Official recipes give us a taste of famous meals from the film, and they’re easy enough for children to make too.
Clever design lets you recreate a famous movie scene with your broth, and watch No Face swimming beneath your noodles.
Oscar nod is the fourth for Miyazaki and sixth for Studio Ghibli, which last won the Best Animated Feature award more than two decades ago.
It’s been a long time since we last saw these adorable coasters and pot mats featuring beloved characters from My Neighbor Totoro, Howl’s Moving Castle, and Kiki’s Delivery Service.
There are as many factors working in the Hayao Miyazaki movie’s favor as there are working against it on the path to becoming the second-ever Academy Award-winning anime.
Chihiro is all grown up in special one-off ad that aired during Ghibli TV broadcast in Japan.
