It wasn't a disappointment even though it was similar in style to Yamada's--my least favorite Ghibli film. The sketchy animation worked well--especially when there was a scene in which Kaguya Hime grew to a rage. |

Posted by arren18 on 06.21.2014, 09:40 PM: No idea. I think there were English-language trailers fairly recently, so that should mean that it'll appear at some point in the future. I can see it taking a little longer than a Miyazaki film though, since it's unlikely to be as popular.

Posted by Saddletank on 08.19.2014, 05:33 PM: Takahata is like the Claude Monet of anime. He is bold, brave and out there in a class of his own. His work isn't popular as of now but I am sure that over time it will hold a value of its own. A unique place.

Posted by Saddletank on 08.20.2014, 07:57 AM: I was only drawing a general comparison in that he is different and 'brave' in trying unusual techniques. Its the kind of animation you only usually see in small indie films. Mentioning the impressionists was me trying to see a parallel in people who were at first denied a mature criticism of their work, even ridiculed but whose material is today seen as fine art.

Posted by husky51 on 04.21.2015, 12:46 PM: Actually, I think that the story-telling technique depends a lot on what KIND of tale it is. Some technique's lend themselves more favorably to the long, drawn out tale and and others to a more action-packed tale.

Posted by husky51 on 05.02.2015, 10:13 PM: Gives a bit of understanding to Takahata's ideas and values that he attempts to instill in his films...
