Studio Ghibli's first full 3DCG film! Arya and the Witch\" is Studio Ghibli's first theatrical film in five years. Director Goro Miyazaki, who has not made a theatrical film in about 10 years since \"From Up On Poppy Hill\" (2011) and a new film in 6 years since the TV series \"Ronja, the Bandit's Daughter\" (2002-2005), took on the challenge of making Studio Ghibli's first full 3DCG animation film. The film opens with surprise and excitement, but leaves a satisfying aftertaste at the end, a work that could only come from Studio Ghibli. The film was selected as one of the Official Selection 2020 announced by the Cannes International Film Festival in June 2020, and has been attracting attention overseas as well, with its theatrical release scheduled in North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, etc. In Japan, it will be broadcast on NHK General TV on December 30, 2020 (Wednesday). In Japan, the film was first broadcast on NHK General TV on December 30, 2020 (Wed.), and while its release was postponed due to the Corona disaster, it was released in theaters on August 27, 2021. Arya, Ghibli's new heroine, is a clever and deft character. The film is planned by Hayao Miyazaki and directed by Goro Miyazaki. Director Hayao Miyazaki first encountered the original story \"Arya and the Witch\" and came up with the idea of adapting it for the screen.However, he had already begun preparations for his new film \"How Do You Live? The director who was given the green light was Goro Miyazaki. He agreed to direct the film because of the original work's interest and the way he was thinking at the time about children today. After \"Ronja, the Bandit's Daughter,\" which was produced in the celluloid style (CG animation that looks like hand-drawn celluloid pictures), Miyazaki wanted to try 3DCG next, and this project came to fruition. The original story is by Diana Wynne Jones, also known as the Queen of Fantasy. Based on the novel of the same title by Diana Wynne Jones, known for \"Howl's Moving Castle,\" which was made into a movie by Studio Ghibli. The author, Diana, is a leading British fantasy writer and is also known as the Queen of Fantasy. Arya and the Witch,\" published in Japan in 2012, was the last work completed by Diana before her death, who passed away the year before. ■A fascinating cast has been assembled. The main character Arya was played by Hironori Hirasawa of \"Tora-san: Why I Became a Cat\" (19) and \"Flight over the Water\" (20), who was selected by audition.Also starring in the film were Shinobu Terashima as the witch Bela Yaga, Etsushi Toyokawa as the mysterious man Mandrake, and Gaku Hamada as Thomas the black cat, all of whom are well-known Japanese actors. Terashima and Toyokawa, in their first attempts at voice acting, delivered lively and impressive voice performances.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pony Canyon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44473493094689,"sku":"4988013748484","price":2282.0,"currency_code":"UYU","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/products\/4988013748484.jpg?v=1676280454","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-uy\/products\/4988013748484","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
