Blog RSS Feed Report abuse Latest News: Ghibli Producer Suzuki Hints at U.S. Ponyo Screening Plans

Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea film producer and former Studio Ghibli president Toshio Suzuki hinted about American screening plans for director Hayao Miyazaki's latest film during May 4's Ghibli Asemamire radio program. The radio episode began with Suzuki saying over the phone that he was in Los Angeles and therefore could not be in Japan for the show. When asked about what he was doing in America, Suzuki said he could not say. The podcast version of the episode splices in an announcement of the program's sponsors at that point. However, the Nausicaa.net website reports that the original live broadcast version of the episode had Suzuki adding the following: "In fact, there was a lot of demand for a screening of Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea from the U.S. So I came here to…"

Director Hayao Miyazaki's last two films, Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle, ran in American theaters one year after the Japanese opening. However, both films had private screenings and festival showings just months after the Japanese opening.

Seeing as it was a good part of a certain series, but shunned by a lot of people, it's time to bring it back. I'll give you a few hints. Someone guesses right, I'll revel it. Someone gets close/wrong, I will give more clues. The storyline will be from me. Hopefully I can get better at drawing, and do that too.


Clue 1: Midget Robots

Clue 2: Spin-off of a great Manga/Anime series

Clue 3: Shunned by its' "childness" And believe me, it's far from that!

Clue 4: [img]http://img119.imageshack.us/img119/8353/zakueyefz2.jpg[/img]

That Is the eye of a certain type of robot

I think Chrno Crusade is my favorite, followed by Fullmetal Alchemist and Naruto (mostly the first season or so, then it pretty much went downhill -- still watch it though).

Got to be Elfen Lied, great story, great animation, and a good length of 13 episodes, 13 great episodes rather than dragging it out over 30+ mixed ones, trying to get the most out of it. A must see.
