DID YOU KNOW?

by: Luka

Hey guys, today my facts are about Studio Ghibli Movies and The Studio itself:

1. The Studio Ghibli Museum Doesn’t Allow Photography: To preserve the magic and encourage full engagement, visitors are asked to enjoy the moment without taking pictures.

2. The Studio’s Buildings Were Designed by Miyazaki: The Ghibli Museum and even some office interiors were hand-designed by Miyazaki himself to reflect whimsy and creativity.

3. Ghibli’s Most Detailed Food Scene Is in From Up on Poppy Hill: The breakfast scenes were drawn with painstaking realism, showcasing traditional Japanese cuisine.

4. A Grave of the Fireflies Candy Tin Became a Cultural Symbol: The Sakuma drops tin shown in the film became widely known in Japan and is still sold today as a tribute.

5. Miyazaki’s Favorite Ghibli Film Isn’t His Own: He has said he greatly ires Grave of the Fireflies, directed by Isao Takahata.

CLOSING QUOTE

by: Luka

"I'd rather be a pig than a fascist." - Porco Rosso

This quote from Porco Rosso means the character would rather be seen as strange or different (like a pig) than something cruel and unfair, like fascism. It shows that being kind and true to yourself is more important than following bad ideas, even if others don’t understand you.
