Whether asleep or awake, these kids are about to go on some incredible illustrated adventures.
New collection will keep you cool with friends from My Neighbour Totoro, Kiki’s Delivery Service, and Spirited Away.
Speech bubbles and pops of bright colour add a new comic twist to movies like My Neighbour Totoro and Spirited Away.
They may be young, but they can pull off some fantastic costumes.

Japanese Twitter users weigh in on thought-provoking post discussing the qualities that make Yubaba an effective manager.
