Nausicaa Manga Examined

nausicaa_manga_editing

The datacomp fan blog has published a lengthy English translated exerpt from manga/anime scholar Kaoru Kumi’s 2008 book The Age of Hayao Miyazaki. The exerpt proposes a very specific and detailed examination of precisely why Miyazaki’s manga series Nausicaa is considered “cinematic.” Although written in a rather informal tone, this is heavy and highly academic manga criticism very rarely seen in English language.
