ゲド戦記

tales from earthsea ~ gedo senki

this animation is directed by goro miyazaki - son of hayao miyazaki (the genius behind studio ghibli). i've enjoyed the latter's films immensely like:

my neighbour totoro

spirited away

princess mononoke

whispers of the heart

kiki's delivery service

hmmm haven had the chance to watch howl's moving castle but i'm sure it's endearing as well....gedo senki is directed by his son who doesn't have any experience in animation and it's based on "the farthest shore" the 3rd Earthsea series by Ursula K. Le Guin. yet this feature is currently topping japan's top office for 3 consecutive weeks! upsetting even pirates of the carribean..imagine that? well i haven caught it for obvious reasons it's not released here as of to-date but i did liku the song...



it's eerily reminiscent to macross plus "voices" n i still get the bumps when i hear this =)




anyway it's all very exciting so puleez try to catch it somehow..
