Studio Ghibli, widely recognized as Japan's most important animation studio, was founded in 1985 by Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata.
Since the first day, the studio's pioneers have created masterpieces of top quality animation. Needless to say, they have globally received numbers of awards including an Oscar for the epic story 'Spirited Away'.
Ghibli (pronounced as jiburi) means ' hot wind blowing through Sahara Desert', a name used for the Italian planes during World War II.
I have always been in love with Japanese-animated characters in cartoons and comics since I was a little girl and seen most of the feature films from 'My Neighbor Totoro' to Kiki's Delivery Service', 'Porco Rosso', 'Ponyo' and many more..
The latest was 'The Secret World of Arrietty' based on a novel by Mary Norton "The Borrowers". It tells the story of little people borrowing stuff from humans. Here is the trailer, hope you enjoy it and spare the time watch it, too:
