In the name of Miyazaki

What would be the response to this film without Miyazaki's face? I know this must be one of the things that Goro Miyazaki is most reluctant to face, but he's really not one or two points away from his father. American writer Ursula Le Guin's "The Legend of Earthsea" is one of the classics of Western fantasy literature, as well as Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy" and Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia". To make such a work like this, I think it is really... After a grand opening to whet the audience's appetite, it is followed by a calm and soothing pastoral sketch-style fairy tale. The appearance of the dragon, the fight, and the reason why the king was assassinated by his son... This large number of suspected lines were not explained later, which made people inexplicable and did not know why. The style of painting cannot be separated from the influence of Hayao Miyazaki (does not rule out the possibility of imitation), but it does not have his delicacy. What a fucking waste of time to spend 100 minutes watching something like this.

Haitaka: Now listen to me, Aaren: No man nor any living thing in this world preserves their life forever. But only to men is it given to know that we must die, and that is a precious gift. This life that is both our torment and our treasure was never meant to endure for eternity. Life is a wave on the sea. Would you force the sea to grow still to save one wave? To save yourself?
