Last year, Miyazaki Hayao announced his retirement from animation directing and in this year, Studio Ghibli also announced that they will not produce new animation. This means the end of an era in the history of animation. With out a doubt, Miyazaki Hayao and his animation is the symbol of Japanese animation.
His animation have shown beautiful dreams to children, and made adults to recover their innocence which they had in their minds when they are young. Most of you reading this article may watched one of the movies made by Studio Ghibli like <My Neighbor Totoro>, <Spirited Away> and so on. I watched his animation first when I was middle school student. My Korean teacher introduce the animation of Ghibli in the class and showed some of its work. At that time I just thought the film is quite interesting. But when I get older and watched film again, I could find meaning of the film and what does director wanted to say through his work.
Miyazaki said that the reason for making animation is to know and seek for the secret of the world. As he says, his animation made people who watch film think about nature and human being. Although he retired and we can not look forward to his new film, but his artworks will remain in our mind forever.
When I watch the princess mononoke in 7 years old, I was shocked. The story was philosophy and the ost was really impressed for me. I am also very sad for Miyazaki's retirement.
