资源介绍 The book contains an introduction, the pre-Ghibli works of Takahata and Miyazaki, the films of Studio Ghibli, other projects, a bibliography, and an index. Around the middle of the book is a section of pictures that features stills from some of the works featured in the book.
The introduction goes into the backgrounds of both Takahata and Miyazaki, the founding of Studio Ghibli, the themes and motifs that are present in both directors’ work, and some explanatory notes. The pre-Ghibli works section talks about the Toei years, post-Toei, the Nippon Animation years, and post-Nippon Animation. Starting in this final section, the authors discuss works made by the directors; each write up includes the title, the year of release, who directed it, a plot synopsis (which includes spoilers), and an analysis of the work. The section about the films of Studio Ghibli goes straight into the write ups for each piece, and the write ups are done in the same style as the pre-Ghibli works. The final section of the book talks about some of the other projects produced by Studio Ghibli
Not only was this book comprehensive in covering the works of Takahata and Miyazaki, but the authors wrote it in such a way that the reader isn’t bogged down while reading the book. Personally, I thought this was a rather quick and easy read for the kind of book that it is. I appreciated that the authors understood that they were primarily writing an overview book; while commentary is included for many of the works, the authors don’t spend pages upon pages analyzing everything. I also appreciated that the authors covered the live-action documentary The Story of the Yanagawa Canals. And this is the first publication that I’ve read which really goes into detail about the Ocean Waves television film.
