Hi, this is a super lovely and informative article! I was hoping to ask for a source for the Takahata quote? I haven’t been able to find where it’s from, and it seems like a super interesting interview! Thanks:)
Thank you! The quote is from Takahata's afterword to Starting Point 1979–1996, a decently sized essay where he tries to explain what makes Miyazaki tick. It's really good!
whoa thanks so much for the quick response!! i will definitely look into it! and thanks for all your amazing work, i love how deep you guys dig with your articles! (the one you did on miyazaki’s runs helped me pass second year at animation college haha)
The whole section on storytelling had my heart racing.
