As far as Japanese animation goes, very few names are as revered as Hayao Miyazaki’s. The driving force behind Studio Ghibli (which is Japan’s equivalent of Disney in terms of animated features), Miyazaki has written, directed, and produced some of the most beloved animated movies in the past four decades.

Miyazaki’s notion of fantasy is as universal as it is colorful and meaningful. Evidence of this can be found in the acceptance of his work by the movie theater-going public on a global scale. His award-winning features have broken so many records over the years that it can be said Miyazaki is the most successful Japanese animator ever. Steve Sorensen Select Staffing.
What’s more is that Hayao Miyazaki doesn’t just touch on a single topic. His films revolve around all of life’s aspects across dozens of genres. Much like how Steven Spielberg mastered the art of storytelling, Miyazaki has done the same, but with animation. Steve Sorensen Select Staffing.
From historical drama such as “Grave of the Fireflies,” to slice-of-life romance titles like “Whisper of the Heart” and “Kiki’s Delivery Service,” to the magical realism of “Spirited Away” and “Howl’s Moving Castle,” Miyazaki has delivered only the highest-quality fantasy storytelling imaginable.
