The Wind is Rising gets a release date

[Lleyn]

It’s official: Studio Ghibli’s Kazu Tachinu, or “The Wind is Rising”, will be released in Japanese cinemas from July 20 this year.

Announced last December together with Kaguya Hime no Monogatari, this will be the first feature film that Hayao Miyazaki has both written and directed since 2008′s Ponyo.

The story is believed to be loosely based on one of Miyazaki’s own manga series, which in turn derived from a work by Japanese author Tatsuo Hori. Kaze Tachinu was originally intended to be joined by slightly darker tale Kaguya Hime no Monogatari for a simultaneous release, but that feature has sadly slipped back until autumn this year.

There has been no word yet regarding of the western release dates for either film, but we’ll be sure to keep all of you Studio Ghibli fans posted!

Its been a while since I last watched anything from Studio Ghibli.

They need to make more of these classics.

 

[Demon_Skeith]

indeed they do, I enjoyed all of Miyazaki's movies thus far.

 

[Lleyn]

A loved all of them, except Spirited Away which was average to me.

 

[Demon_Skeith]

what? That was their best.

 

[Lleyn]

Lol not to me I did like it, but not as much as others like Mononoke or Nausicaa.

 

[GracefulAssassin]

Yeah, they made the anime cutscenes for NNK.

 

[Lleyn]

Well thats yet another reason to make this the first PS3 game I complete

 

[GracefulAssassin]

It's also the PS3's best RPG. Well, exclusive, because Kingdom Hearts is the best.

 

[Demon_Skeith]

better than tales of graces f?

 

[Lleyn]

I heard it was better.

 

[GracefulAssassin]

In my opinion, yes. Having beaten them both, and played both a lot, I like NNK better.

Better in both the gameplay and the story?

 

[GracefulAssassin]

Yes.

 

[Lleyn]

I'll have to test that.

 

[GracefulAssassin]

Go ahead.
