SGMR 02: Castle in the Sky
Now it is time to talk about Castle in the Sky released in 1986. Spoilers Begin Here High above the clouds, there was an airship that was carrying an orphaned girl named Sheeta (J: Keiko Yokozawa, E: Anna Paquin). She was captured by a government agent named Muska (J: Minori Terada, E: Mark Hamill). They were on their way to a place that was not revealed... yet. Then, the airship was attacked by a crew of air pirates, led by a woman named Dola (J: Kotoe Hatsui, E: Cloris Leachman). During the conflict, Sheeta managed to escape. She got out through a window. She tried to get into another room, but she ended up falling off the airship. She was high up in the sky, so when she fell... there was no way for her to survive. However, her necklace saved her life. It seemed to have magical properties, and it floated her safely to the ground. Sheeta landed in a 19th century mining town called Slag Ravine. She was found by an orphaned boy named Pazu (J: Mayumi Tanaka, E: James Van Der Beek)

Welcome to Studio Ghibli Movie Reviews. Before we get started, I should... as usual... go over a brief history of Studio Ghibli. Studio Ghibli is Japanese animation studio founded by Hayao Miyazaki, Isao Takahata and Toshio Suzuki. Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata worked for years in the Japanese film and animation industry, having worked on animations, such as The Great Adventures of Horus, Prince of the Sun and Panda! Go, Panda! Toshio Suzuki was an editor for a manga magazine called Tokuma Shoten Publishing. The company was founded on June 15th, 1985. Since then, Studio Ghibli has become one of the most respected film companies, creating many films that are considered not just anime classics, but classics in animation as a whole. Of course, being a Japanese company, we in the United States would naturally have difficulty experiencing these films. Enter the Walt Disney company. As it turns out, Hayao Miyazaki was friends with former Disney and Pixar animator, John Lasseter. Since
