Review of “Feeling Responsible for the Future of Children and Not Wanting to Make Halfhearted Films” (2006)

Text

Miyazaki Hayao (writer).

Read in 2021.

Read in Turning Point.

Like “On the Periphery of the Work” (1987), this is a series of articles, but this series had only two entries in consecutive issues of an economic newspaper, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun, cautioning against investment in Japanese animation at a time when it was booming internationally.
