RocketNews24: Legendary anime director Hayao Miyazaki is in Los Angeles right now, as he’s making a rare trip to the U.S. to receive a lifetime achievement award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. While we’re sure plenty of fans are excited to see Japanese animation’s most respected figure receive such a prestigious honor, there’s something else for them to be happier about: Miyazaki’s statement that he’s not even close to done making anime.
Miyazaki is directing around one minute of animation per month on his next feature.
We Got This Covered had the chance to speak with anime auteur Makoto Shinkai about his latest film, Weathering with You, as well as Your Name and Hayao Miyazaki.
Hayao Miyazaki, The Legendary Filmmaker and Co-founder of Studio Ghibli will be honored with the Sklar Creative Visionary Award this year.
I swear numerous times he stated "x is my last project" and then comes up with something new. Not mad or anything, Miyazaki's films are legendary.
