I went to the theater with a friend to watch Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, and it was fantastic! Having only seen this Studio Ghibli classic on a small screen before, experiencing it on a big screen was truly amazing. The visuals and story were captivating, and the soundtrack was incredible. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and now I’m learning the main theme song on the ukulele.
I know the general consensus is that the food in Ghibli movies looks amazingly delicious, but I’m going to have to say that it never seems appetizing to me. It always just looks flat and blah and I always think what a missed opportunity it was. It’s a shame that I cannot feel enthusiastic about the food, but I guess it’s just a psychological mismatch I will have to bear. I’m happy (and a bit jealous) for everyone who can get excited about it, though.
Anyways, I do follow illustrator Nabatame Kazutaka, whose food looks absolutely delicious to me. Just look at this curry and this shumai bento box! おいしそう！
