1
00:00:15,182 --> 00:00:17,750
That day, documentary director Katsura Arakawa and Hayao Miyazaki were traveling together.

2
00:00:25,392 --> 00:00:27,393
Go to the premiere of Hayao Miyazaki's new film

3
00:00:32,599 --> 00:00:34,767
I woke up early today

4
00:00:36,336 --> 00:00:40,206
Maybe it's because I'm nervous, but I didn't realize it

5
00:00:44,778 --> 00:00:47,046
large audience

6
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,949
Long queues have formed in front of theaters across Japan

7
00:00:54,821 --> 00:00:57,790
I came to see Ponyo because she is so cute

8
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:01,694
I started queuing up in the morning and finally bought a ticket.

9
00:01:03,697 --> 00:01:05,831
"Ponyo on the Cliff"

10
00:01:07,267 --> 00:01:11,170
5-year-old Zongsuke meets Ponyo, a human-faced fish

11
00:01:11,271 --> 00:01:13,205
The fantastic story begins here

12
00:01:18,912 --> 00:01:20,713
Stop shooting at me

13
00:01:21,381 --> 00:01:23,649
The footage of this film records

14
00:01:23,684 --> 00:01:25,585
200 days from start to finish of film production

15
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:33,092
The story must end somewhere

16
00:01:33,527 --> 00:01:36,362
I hope there will be a good ending

17
00:01:41,201 --> 00:01:43,035
Summer 2007

18
00:01:43,670 --> 00:01:46,372
Less than a year left until the movie is released

19
00:01:50,711 --> 00:01:52,712
Production work is in full swing

20
00:01:59,252 --> 00:02:03,856
Hayao Miyazaki decided not to use computer graphics in the film

21
00:02:04,257 --> 00:02:07,927
Animators had to draw everything by hand

22
00:02:09,997 --> 00:02:13,666
A 5-second animation takes a full week to complete

23
00:02:14,134 --> 00:02:16,402
This is a time-consuming and laborious task

24
00:02:20,741 --> 00:02:23,142
The shade is a little bluer

25
00:02:24,645 --> 00:02:27,480
Some painters are responsible for painting the background

26
00:02:28,548 --> 00:02:30,449
The color of the foam should be whiter

27
00:02:31,184 --> 00:02:33,886
There are also some responsible for color matching

28
00:02:34,287 --> 00:02:37,857
The total number of film production staff reached 350

29
00:02:38,592 --> 00:02:39,925
Ponyo looks very coordinated

30
00:02:41,728 --> 00:02:44,196
76 77 plus 3 frames

31
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:50,169
- It's more natural, right? - Yeah.

32
00:02:50,303 --> 00:02:51,070
OK

33
00:02:58,045 --> 00:03:02,381
Right, it makes you look happier

34
00:03:04,151 --> 00:03:06,752
If the movie isn't good enough, everything is in vain

35
00:03:09,089 --> 00:03:12,558
I don't want to embarrass myself

36
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,295
I want to make works that won’t embarrass myself

37
00:03:21,802 --> 00:03:24,470
Hayao Miyazaki sat down with animators to discuss

38
00:03:31,411 --> 00:03:37,616
Fish don't crawl, they twist

39
00:03:37,784 --> 00:03:40,019
Hayao Miyazaki is explaining

40
00:03:40,053 --> 00:03:43,355
A scene showing the appearance of the fish-like creature "Water Fish"

41
00:03:45,292 --> 00:03:47,793
He used the storyboards he drew himself

42
00:03:47,828 --> 00:03:50,863
Use gestures to explain your ideas to everyone

43
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:07,179
Water fish suddenly appear like this

44
00:04:07,614 --> 00:04:11,851
Hayao Miyazaki's passion for movies always rubs off on his employees

45
00:04:14,321 --> 00:04:21,594
Water fish lost patience

46
00:04:25,332 --> 00:04:26,966
Don't seem to understand

47
00:04:28,301 --> 00:04:30,236
I don't quite understand

48
00:04:31,638 --> 00:04:33,906
I am a slave to the movie

49
00:04:34,241 --> 00:04:36,108
It’s not like I can shoot whatever I want

50
00:04:36,910 --> 00:04:40,913
This movie was meant to be made this way

51
00:04:44,251 --> 00:04:46,652
Animators sketched one sketch after another

52
00:04:46,820 --> 00:04:48,854
It's like being infected by Hayao Miyazaki

53
00:04:53,026 --> 00:04:56,929
He will review every manuscript with a critical eye

54
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:05,538
Looking bored is not good

55
00:05:08,742 --> 00:05:12,912
If there's anything he's not satisfied with, he'll redraw it himself.

56
00:05:14,548 --> 00:05:15,748
Wrong

57
00:05:16,850 --> 00:05:17,850
This won't work

58
00:05:20,620 --> 00:05:21,654
Not like this

59
00:05:22,722 --> 00:05:24,623
This is an important scene in the movie

60
00:05:24,658 --> 00:05:26,792
The reunion of Ponyo and Zongsuke

61
00:05:28,628 --> 00:05:32,565
The original manuscript failed to show Ponyo's feelings when she saw Sosuke again.

62
00:05:32,866 --> 00:05:34,867
So Hayao Miyazaki began to redraw

63
00:05:36,303 --> 00:05:39,905
She should hug him tightly. How to draw it?

64
00:05:42,108 --> 00:05:45,711
The lines I'm looking for must be somewhere

65
00:05:46,146 --> 00:05:49,215
Every line has its place

66
00:05:49,482 --> 00:05:53,552
As long as you can find it, you can express the feeling of "holding it tightly"

67
00:05:56,122 --> 00:05:57,656
feet

68
00:05:59,159 --> 00:06:02,795
Toes should be spread wider

69
00:06:02,996 --> 00:06:05,831
She never wears shoes

70
00:06:06,466 --> 00:06:11,537
Because of the tight hug, the hem of the clothes was pushed outwards

71
00:06:15,141 --> 00:06:17,176
It's a little narrower here

72
00:06:17,544 --> 00:06:22,381
hold tight

73
00:06:30,423 --> 00:06:32,124
Ponyo's toes spread

74
00:06:32,192 --> 00:06:34,827
The hem of Sousuke's clothes turned up

75
00:06:35,095 --> 00:06:37,930
Hayao Miyazaki shows Ponyo's joy

76
00:06:42,235 --> 00:06:46,205
There is another important reason why Miyazaki revised the manuscript

77
00:06:50,277 --> 00:06:52,511
This will deepen my understanding of movies

78
00:06:53,647 --> 00:06:57,016
What kind of expression will this girl show at this time?

79
00:06:58,251 --> 00:07:01,120
Every detail makes the character richer

80
00:07:01,187 --> 00:07:03,188
As film production proceeds

81
00:07:03,223 --> 00:07:04,556
My understanding of the characters is getting deeper and deeper

82
00:07:08,428 --> 00:07:09,995
long wait

83
00:07:10,830 --> 00:07:11,830
every friday

84
00:07:11,865 --> 00:07:15,701
Hayao Miyazaki would gather his staff to review the original film.

85
00:07:31,851 --> 00:07:33,052
a year ago

86
00:07:33,253 --> 00:07:36,555
Hayao Miyazaki had the idea of creating Ponyo for the first time

87
00:07:54,507 --> 00:07:56,775
He returned to his personal studio

88
00:07:57,043 --> 00:08:00,012
Start sketching intently

89
00:08:01,314 --> 00:08:03,515
I drew a lot

90
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:09,288
Maybe it's her I'm not sure yet

91
00:08:10,590 --> 00:08:14,059
If you say this is a new movie, I'll be in trouble

92
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,095
Because they are all nonsense

93
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:22,368
The girl in the sketch is named "Ponyo"

94
00:08:28,975 --> 00:08:31,010
Ponyo has a prototype

95
00:08:36,182 --> 00:08:39,018
She is the daughter of a studio employee.

96
00:08:39,486 --> 00:08:40,619
She is far ahead of her peers

97
00:08:40,653 --> 00:08:43,956
Strong temperament attracted Hayao Miyazaki

98
00:08:44,991 --> 00:08:46,592
Lotus is Ponniu

99
00:08:49,562 --> 00:08:50,662
She is a fishman

100
00:08:52,766 --> 00:08:56,402
My daughter is still unable to hold a bottle and drink milk by herself

101
00:08:56,970 --> 00:08:58,804
We still have to help support him

102
00:08:59,639 --> 00:09:00,806
1 and a half year old sweet potato

103
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,676
She also needs her parents to feed her milk with a bottle, otherwise she will get angry.

104
00:09:10,784 --> 00:09:14,753
Looking at your story, what did you do to Ouou’s face?

105
00:09:16,489 --> 00:09:18,991
Ou Hao won’t take the bottle by herself

106
00:09:19,759 --> 00:09:21,927
What a ghost girl

107
00:09:24,264 --> 00:09:27,032
Hayao Miyazaki listens to the story of lotus root

108
00:09:27,267 --> 00:09:30,035
The character of Ponyo gradually takes shape

109
00:09:36,543 --> 00:09:39,645
Ponyo only eats ham, it's her favorite

110
00:09:45,718 --> 00:09:48,887
She also bites into sandwiches like a piranha

111
00:09:55,361 --> 00:09:58,430
I can't concentrate. I'm not in the mood right now.

112
00:10:00,733 --> 00:10:04,570
Hayao Miyazaki's approach to filmmaking is unique

113
00:10:09,409 --> 00:10:12,711
Daily life within a radius of 3 meters

114
00:10:12,912 --> 00:10:15,414
formed the basis of his stories

115
00:10:19,486 --> 00:10:21,820
"My Neighbor Totoro" is like this

116
00:10:24,290 --> 00:10:26,892
A rundown bus stop near Miyazaki's home

117
00:10:27,127 --> 00:10:29,261
It became the beginning of the inspiration for this movie

118
00:10:43,143 --> 00:10:46,745
After a while, Miyazaki began to worry

119
00:10:49,916 --> 00:10:52,317
Ponyo is a bit selfish and naughty

120
00:10:54,654 --> 00:10:57,656
He didn't know if she could get along well with humans

121
00:11:11,371 --> 00:11:14,573
Can Ponyo live happily in the human world?

122
00:11:16,442 --> 00:11:20,646
There's a scene in my mind that proves she can

123
00:11:22,282 --> 00:11:27,085
I think it's okay, but I might be wrong

124
00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:46,271
I will work harder from now on

125
00:11:48,241 --> 00:11:49,808
It's really difficult

126
00:12:05,925 --> 00:12:08,393
Hayao Miyazaki begins storyboarding

127
00:12:08,728 --> 00:12:11,930
Ponyo meets a family who escaped from the tsunami

128
00:12:14,834 --> 00:12:17,502
She decided to share the sandwich with them

129
00:12:25,712 --> 00:12:29,114
This is the first time she has given something to a human

130
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:34,686
This is a huge improvement for a child

131
00:12:35,588 --> 00:12:41,426
I didn't realize this until I was drawing. It's really interesting.

132
00:12:45,198 --> 00:12:49,134
In Miyazaki's mind, Ponyo started doing various things

133
00:12:54,474 --> 00:12:57,843
She found that the baby was unhappy

134
00:13:03,383 --> 00:13:06,351
So I started pinching his face

135
00:13:12,425 --> 00:13:15,560
Some children feel they should not have been born

136
00:13:15,662 --> 00:13:18,563
Ponyo told them that was not the case

137
00:13:19,732 --> 00:13:22,301
This is the reason she came here

138
00:13:23,002 --> 00:13:26,538
Ponyo wants to tell them that's not the case

139
00:13:28,308 --> 00:13:32,644
She is a caring and caring child

140
00:13:53,199 --> 00:13:56,535
Hayao Miyazaki was born in Tokyo in 1941

141
00:13:56,903 --> 00:13:59,304
The second eldest among four brothers

142
00:14:02,542 --> 00:14:05,944
He had poor digestion as a child

143
00:14:06,279 --> 00:14:08,980
The doctor said he wouldn't live to be 20

144
00:14:14,087 --> 00:14:17,255
He is frail and always the slowest runner.

145
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:20,058
So I always feel inferior

146
00:14:25,164 --> 00:14:26,865
Hayao Miyazaki when he was 6 years old

147
00:14:29,102 --> 00:14:31,737
His mother Meiko suddenly fell ill

148
00:14:32,004 --> 00:14:34,406
She has spinal tuberculosis

149
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,776
There is no cure, so I can only stay in bed for many years.

150
00:14:40,813 --> 00:14:43,014
She was a strong and active woman

151
00:14:43,416 --> 00:14:45,517
Now I can't even turn over

152
00:14:49,789 --> 00:14:51,790
Miyazaki Hayao still remembers it until now

153
00:14:51,824 --> 00:14:54,659
The scene when he asked his mother to carry him

154
00:14:54,660 --> 00:14:57,562
She cried and said she couldn't do it

155
00:15:01,033 --> 00:15:04,469
He longs for his mother's love but tries not to show it

156
00:15:05,972 --> 00:15:08,974
Gradually he got an idea

157
00:15:09,809 --> 00:15:11,777
He wishes he had never been born

158
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,883
In the end he found solace in comics

159
00:15:23,956 --> 00:15:26,091
Whenever he has time, he will draw

160
00:15:32,498 --> 00:15:34,499
after college

161
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,701
He got a job at an animation studio

162
00:15:40,173 --> 00:15:42,774
From then on, he embarked on the path of animator

163
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:48,580
His unusual talent soon emerged

164
00:15:51,884 --> 00:15:54,386
As a newcomer, his paintings are excellent

165
00:15:54,854 --> 00:15:56,555
The picture is full of imagination

166
00:15:57,757 --> 00:16:01,059
Tomisaki Hayao quickly became a man of the hour at the studio

167
00:16:03,229 --> 00:16:07,132
His imagination is astonishingly rich

168
00:16:07,934 --> 00:16:12,437
I exclaimed, "He's really awesome."

169
00:16:12,472 --> 00:16:15,607
This idea is deeply imprinted in my mind

170
00:16:18,678 --> 00:16:22,681
Hayao Miyazaki no longer feels inferior. He has found his place.

171
00:16:26,719 --> 00:16:29,321
He is partnered with director Go Yeon-hoon

172
00:16:29,522 --> 00:16:33,825
Together they created one popular masterpiece after another

173
00:16:40,733 --> 00:16:44,603
Hayao Miyazaki has always hidden a wish deep in his heart

174
00:16:46,506 --> 00:16:49,941
I want to bring joy to others. This is my motivation.

175
00:16:50,943 --> 00:16:54,913
because

176
00:16:55,348 --> 00:16:58,850
Being able to bring people happiness is the meaning of my existence

177
00:16:59,385 --> 00:17:04,588
I need to feel like a useful person

178
00:17:09,328 --> 00:17:11,930
This probably stems from my childhood experience

179
00:17:12,431 --> 00:17:14,533
I don’t want to get into this

180
00:17:14,666 --> 00:17:17,903
I just hope to bring people happiness

181
00:17:21,374 --> 00:17:25,309
At the age of 38, Hayao Miyazaki made his directorial debut

182
00:17:28,180 --> 00:17:30,715
"Lupine III: The Castle of Cagliostro"

183
00:17:31,250 --> 00:17:33,251
The film’s novel action scenes

184
00:17:33,286 --> 00:17:34,686
Received high praise from the industry

185
00:17:44,630 --> 00:17:45,830
But after the movie was released

186
00:17:45,898 --> 00:17:49,801
Hayao Miyazaki found that the film's attendance was poor

187
00:17:54,373 --> 00:17:57,375
At that time, films such as "Space Battleship Yamato"

188
00:17:57,476 --> 00:17:59,477
Is detonating the craze of science fiction movies

189
00:18:02,582 --> 00:18:05,784
There are fewer and fewer invitations to direct Hayao Miyazaki

190
00:18:11,223 --> 00:18:13,258
But he kept coming up with new ideas

191
00:18:13,292 --> 00:18:16,328
and work hard to sell them to TV stations and other film producers

192
00:18:19,131 --> 00:18:21,566
In the ancient story picture book "Magic Princess"

193
00:18:22,168 --> 00:18:25,070
Giant lynx falls in love with human princess

194
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,042
"My Neighbor Totoro" is about two little girls

195
00:18:31,077 --> 00:18:32,744
Friendship with the forest monster

196
00:18:35,815 --> 00:18:38,617
There is also the castle in the sky that appeared in "Warring States Demon City"

197
00:18:43,189 --> 00:18:46,057
These proposals were rejected

198
00:18:48,361 --> 00:18:50,962
Many people criticize Hayao Miyazaki behind his back

199
00:18:54,767 --> 00:18:55,533
someone said

200
00:18:55,568 --> 00:18:58,737
"His ideas are outdated and will never be popular."

201
00:18:59,872 --> 00:19:02,874
People in the film industry are reluctant to give him a chance

202
00:19:08,814 --> 00:19:11,883
In order to make a living, he started making TV animations

203
00:19:12,118 --> 00:19:14,986
But he didn't give up on submitting movie proposals

204
00:19:17,123 --> 00:19:20,358
He thinks it can only bring happiness to people

205
00:19:20,626 --> 00:19:22,494
life has meaning

206
00:19:34,206 --> 00:19:37,342
I don't want it to end like this

207
00:19:40,913 --> 00:19:43,048
I want to do animation

208
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:49,154
But I don't think I have a chance

209
00:19:49,188 --> 00:19:51,356
I know I probably won't get the chance

210
00:19:55,061 --> 00:19:56,661
during that time

211
00:19:56,662 --> 00:20:00,598
An animation magazine editor comes to visit Miyazaki

212
00:20:02,702 --> 00:20:03,902
he later became

213
00:20:03,936 --> 00:20:07,038
Hayao Miyazaki's long-time producer

214
00:20:07,173 --> 00:20:09,174
His name is Toshio Suzuki

215
00:20:12,645 --> 00:20:16,648
He invited Hayao Miyazaki to serialize comics in the magazine

216
00:20:18,384 --> 00:20:21,419
Suzuki convinced Miyazaki with enthusiasm

217
00:20:21,587 --> 00:20:22,687
Although he is unwilling

218
00:20:26,992 --> 00:20:29,360
The protagonist of the comic is named Nausicaa

219
00:20:29,495 --> 00:20:32,831
This girl has killed someone and suffered emotional trauma.

220
00:20:42,374 --> 00:20:44,075
One year after serialization

221
00:20:44,110 --> 00:20:46,444
Suzuki makes an unexpected suggestion

222
00:20:52,318 --> 00:20:54,753
"Why not make a comic into a movie"

223
00:21:00,426 --> 00:21:03,461
Hayao Miyazaki thinks this is his last chance

224
00:21:03,929 --> 00:21:06,865
He agreed to direct and production began

225
00:21:11,203 --> 00:21:13,671
Not long after, he received the bad news

226
00:21:18,577 --> 00:21:21,346
His mother Miko passed away

227
00:21:22,948 --> 00:21:27,085
She battled the disease for most of her life and died at the age of 72

228
00:21:33,726 --> 00:21:37,028
At the end of her life, Hayao Miyazaki was not able to be by her side.

229
00:21:40,266 --> 00:21:42,200
He never cried in front of anyone

230
00:21:42,668 --> 00:21:45,703
But some say that when he was alone with her body

231
00:21:46,038 --> 00:21:48,740
shoulders shaking with sobs

232
00:21:51,677 --> 00:21:54,012
Hayao Miyazaki's will becomes stronger

233
00:21:56,182 --> 00:21:57,882
He devoted himself wholeheartedly to filmmaking

234
00:21:57,917 --> 00:22:00,552
Strive to bring people joy

235
00:22:13,432 --> 00:22:14,866
Hayao Miyazaki turns 43

236
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:17,936
"Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind" released

237
00:22:27,029 --> 00:22:30,633
Nausicaa is strong and brave and refuses to succumb to fate

238
00:22:31,033 --> 00:22:33,669
The audience had a strong sense of identification with her

239
00:22:41,527 --> 00:22:43,962
This film made Hayao Miyazaki famous

240
00:22:51,570 --> 00:22:52,971
If his mother is still alive

241
00:22:53,005 --> 00:22:55,874
She must be happier than others

242
00:22:58,110 --> 00:23:01,212
After that, Hayao Miyazaki created many more

243
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,882
Based on his mother's character

244
00:23:13,620 --> 00:23:17,195
For example, the air pirate "Dora" in "Castle in the Sky"

245
00:23:21,433 --> 00:23:22,852
Dora has similarities with his mother

246
00:23:23,135 --> 00:23:26,489
His mother was also as lively and active as a boy

247
00:23:28,641 --> 00:23:30,408
The mother in "My Neighbor Totoro"

248
00:23:30,542 --> 00:23:33,745
While fighting the disease, she still protected her children.

249
00:23:41,854 --> 00:23:44,822
Hayao Miyazaki on Sophie in Howl's Moving Castle

250
00:23:44,890 --> 00:23:46,524
Also the incarnation of his mother

251
00:23:46,558 --> 00:23:49,093
They are equally strong and kind

252
00:24:08,614 --> 00:24:11,282
The Making of "Ponyo on the Cliff"

253
00:24:11,317 --> 00:24:12,969
Entering the final stage

254
00:24:14,620 --> 00:24:17,221
Animators completed animation frame after frame

255
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:23,394
I think it's good

256
00:24:26,932 --> 00:24:29,300
What a terrible movie

257
00:24:33,472 --> 00:24:36,674
But Hayao Miyazaki’s review speed can’t keep up.

258
00:24:39,678 --> 00:24:40,611
Abominable

259
00:24:45,601 --> 00:24:48,671
The workload he can handle now

260
00:24:48,687 --> 00:24:49,721
Only one-fifth of what it was when I was young

261
00:24:50,122 --> 00:24:53,057
He was beyond his capabilities and the pile of manuscripts was piling up.

262
00:24:57,763 --> 00:25:02,467
God, I still have storyboards to draw.

263
00:25:07,639 --> 00:25:10,341
The progress of storyboarding is even further behind

264
00:25:13,245 --> 00:25:15,513
He only painted the lower half

265
00:25:15,681 --> 00:25:17,915
The scene where Sosuke and Ponyo embark on a journey

266
00:25:31,630 --> 00:25:33,698
- Come down. - Yeah.

267
00:25:35,601 --> 00:25:38,302
No matter who made the mistake, please correct it immediately

268
00:25:39,171 --> 00:25:40,138
Change it quickly

269
00:25:42,207 --> 00:25:44,542
Hayao Miyazaki has been very irritable since morning

270
00:25:49,748 --> 00:25:54,652
-Ms. Okuyama passed away. -Is it true, Ms. Reiko?

271
00:25:54,686 --> 00:25:58,056
An animator about 10 years older passed away

272
00:26:01,427 --> 00:26:05,363
I really didn’t expect that, right?

273
00:26:05,697 --> 00:26:08,232
They used to create movies together

274
00:26:10,702 --> 00:26:16,707
I thought I would die first, but she suddenly left like this

275
00:26:17,576 --> 00:26:20,878
I feel like a comb with missing teeth

276
00:26:27,853 --> 00:26:31,889
-This scene looks like the end of the world. -Yeah, it's beautiful.

277
00:26:38,730 --> 00:26:40,598
So beautiful

278
00:26:47,473 --> 00:26:49,841
If you die, you won’t be able to see the sunset.

279
00:27:17,669 --> 00:27:22,640
Work may not be fulfilling

280
00:27:23,575 --> 00:27:26,110
please don't say that

281
00:27:39,925 --> 00:27:42,260
Is there any progress on the storyboarding?

282
00:27:43,262 --> 00:27:46,931
There is one last problem

283
00:27:48,367 --> 00:27:50,134
Still need a little "wasabi"

284
00:27:53,505 --> 00:27:56,107
I can't just follow the plot

285
00:27:58,644 --> 00:28:01,212
The plot was decided long ago

286
00:28:14,626 --> 00:28:15,826
Really terrible

287
00:28:16,929 --> 00:28:19,630
Hayao Miyazaki can't think of any good ideas

288
00:28:20,032 --> 00:28:22,066
Time passes little by little

289
00:28:24,436 --> 00:28:28,606
Trouble as hell

290
00:28:31,577 --> 00:28:33,444
please

291
00:28:36,248 --> 00:28:37,949
hello

292
00:28:40,819 --> 00:28:44,855
To relieve fatigue, Hayao Miyazaki started getting massages once a week

293
00:28:50,963 --> 00:28:52,730
Do you sit there all day?

294
00:28:52,931 --> 00:28:57,201
Now it is no better than before. I only spend one-third of my time sitting down.

295
00:28:58,704 --> 00:28:59,937
I can't stand it after sitting for so long.

296
00:29:00,372 --> 00:29:04,308
- I can’t stand it anywhere. - I can’t stand it anywhere. I will lose motivation.

297
00:29:04,610 --> 00:29:06,911
Continuing to work will produce no results

298
00:29:07,879 --> 00:29:11,315
I don't have much time

299
00:29:11,516 --> 00:29:15,386
-Why do you say that? -I just thought of it

300
00:29:17,789 --> 00:29:20,691
Hayao Miyazaki seems to have lost his confidence

301
00:29:24,396 --> 00:29:26,330
he started talking about someone

302
00:29:29,001 --> 00:29:32,036
I vaguely think I can see her

303
00:29:33,505 --> 00:29:37,942
If I see my mother, I hope she is still young and beautiful

304
00:29:44,583 --> 00:29:47,485
His mother has been dead for 25 years

305
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:53,524
In this movie Hayao Miyazaki also

306
00:29:53,525 --> 00:29:56,527
Created a character based on her

307
00:30:03,402 --> 00:30:06,437
This is an old woman who sits in a wheelchair all day

308
00:30:06,571 --> 00:30:07,838
She is called Granny Chen

309
00:30:09,274 --> 00:30:11,275
Broken TV is useless

310
00:30:11,327 --> 00:30:16,332
The weather station is useless. The weather forecast is not accurate at all.

311
00:30:18,050 --> 00:30:22,019
She is lonely and always makes things difficult for those around her.

312
00:30:24,222 --> 00:30:27,625
wrinkled what is this

313
00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:28,793
It should be like this

314
00:30:30,862 --> 00:30:34,432
Hayao Miyazaki is stuck at a bottleneck. He doesn't know when the story is coming to an end.

315
00:30:34,433 --> 00:30:36,867
What role should Granny Chen play?

316
00:30:58,156 --> 00:30:59,190
Autumn is here

317
00:30:59,291 --> 00:31:02,460
Storyboarding is still progressing slowly

318
00:31:07,499 --> 00:31:10,801
- What's wrong? - It's about progress.

319
00:31:15,340 --> 00:31:17,375
The team responsible for coordinating work progress

320
00:31:17,409 --> 00:31:18,809
An emergency meeting was held

321
00:31:24,116 --> 00:31:25,182
that

322
00:31:26,685 --> 00:31:30,621
About the schedule for the second half

323
00:31:30,655 --> 00:31:32,890
Storyboarding progress is slow

324
00:31:32,924 --> 00:31:36,026
Seriously slowed down the overall production progress

325
00:31:37,262 --> 00:31:41,232
Time is getting tighter and tighter

326
00:31:43,218 --> 00:31:45,320
Really bad

327
00:31:53,078 --> 00:31:56,180
Can the storyboard be completed before the end of the month?

328
00:31:57,149 --> 00:31:58,816
OK

329
00:32:18,570 --> 00:32:22,173
From morning to night that day, Hayao Miyazaki kept flipping through his notebooks.

330
00:32:25,444 --> 00:32:28,612
There are countless of his movie ideas hidden here

331
00:32:53,104 --> 00:32:54,705
It's time to eat

332
00:32:56,541 --> 00:32:58,642
I still have to draw storyboards

333
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:23,167
The lines are so boring

334
00:33:23,602 --> 00:33:26,971
I could actually write a lot of lines, but forget it

335
00:33:28,573 --> 00:33:30,274
Children can't understand

336
00:33:30,475 --> 00:33:33,377
No need to write this for boring old men

337
00:33:59,004 --> 00:34:00,571
The storyboard will be finished

338
00:34:01,373 --> 00:34:04,074
The movie will be finished and the world will end.

339
00:34:04,643 --> 00:34:05,676
good night

340
00:34:12,884 --> 00:34:15,619
He probably doesn't want to rush the work

341
00:34:16,021 --> 00:34:19,455
he wants to meet

342
00:34:19,491 --> 00:34:22,660
Scenes you can’t imagine

343
00:34:23,061 --> 00:34:25,428
That’s why I slowly draw the storyboards

344
00:34:27,331 --> 00:34:28,465
That's probably it

345
00:34:39,744 --> 00:34:44,315
Mr. Hisaishi asked me yesterday if I listened. I just remembered that I didn’t.

346
00:34:46,650 --> 00:34:49,820
Hayao Miyazaki starts playing music composed by Joe Hisaishi

347
00:34:49,888 --> 00:34:51,888
The soundtracks for most of his films were composed by Joe Hisaishi

348
00:34:54,993 --> 00:34:57,161
This is the first time I listen to this song in its entirety

349
00:34:58,597 --> 00:35:01,532
(Let’s go for a walk together)

350
00:35:01,566 --> 00:35:04,935
This song expresses the feeling of approaching the end of life

351
00:35:05,070 --> 00:35:06,704
The voices of Granny Chen and others

352
00:35:06,738 --> 00:35:10,608
(I also like rainy days)

353
00:35:10,709 --> 00:35:14,511
(With stylish umbrella)

354
00:35:14,679 --> 00:35:21,385
(Put on your raincoat and go out for a walk)

355
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:26,323
(The person to pick me up hasn’t come yet)

356
00:35:26,658 --> 00:35:28,392
Coming to pick you up

357
00:35:29,961 --> 00:35:37,635
(Take this time to take a short walk)

358
00:35:37,802 --> 00:35:45,776
(I want to dance again)

359
00:35:45,977 --> 00:35:53,217
(turns into a breeze)

360
00:36:02,093 --> 00:36:03,027
What a good song

361
00:36:03,862 --> 00:36:05,963
Reminds me of my mother

362
00:36:21,613 --> 00:36:23,947
He listened to this song over and over again

363
00:36:25,750 --> 00:36:33,624
(The person to pick me up hasn’t come yet)

364
00:36:33,725 --> 00:36:41,565
(Take this time to take a short walk)

365
00:36:41,733 --> 00:36:49,573
(I want to dance again)

366
00:36:49,641 --> 00:36:54,611
(turns into a breeze)

367
00:37:08,593 --> 00:37:09,927
when his mother died

368
00:37:10,161 --> 00:37:13,097
He felt that she was finally freed

369
00:37:23,608 --> 00:37:27,344
I haven't sorted out my feelings for my mother yet

370
00:37:28,179 --> 00:37:30,280
I sometimes think

371
00:37:30,315 --> 00:37:33,484
How can she live a more fulfilling life?

372
00:37:33,551 --> 00:37:35,185
Although she is sick

373
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,890
But is it possible that she could live a more fulfilling life?

374
00:37:54,572 --> 00:37:57,441
Hayao Miyazaki begins drawing storyboards

375
00:38:02,413 --> 00:38:05,415
A mysterious man appeared in front of Zongsuke

376
00:38:13,091 --> 00:38:15,325
To protect Ponyo in the barrel

377
00:38:15,393 --> 00:38:17,027
Sousuke ran away

378
00:38:30,608 --> 00:38:32,509
Granny Chen shouted at him

379
00:38:39,984 --> 00:38:41,985
She came to save Sousuke

380
00:39:04,375 --> 00:39:07,945
But Hayao Miyazaki stopped painting. He couldn't continue painting.

381
00:39:42,647 --> 00:39:45,582
He couldn't think of how to describe his mother

382
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,303
Six days have passed and there is no progress in the work.

383
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:12,042
He picked up the drawing of Granny Chen drawn by the animator

384
00:40:25,723 --> 00:40:27,758
Granny Chen is talking to Zongsuke

385
00:40:43,074 --> 00:40:45,609
Hayao Miyazaki imagines how Grandma Chen feels

386
00:40:45,677 --> 00:40:47,711
Try different lines as you go

387
00:40:53,618 --> 00:40:54,952
Wrong

388
00:41:06,030 --> 00:41:07,497
Hayao Miyazaki's mother died due to illness

389
00:41:07,532 --> 00:41:10,167
Can't hug my child

390
00:41:10,501 --> 00:41:13,470
In her later years she had difficulty walking

391
00:41:27,085 --> 00:41:28,852
Making a movie is not an easy thing

392
00:41:29,954 --> 00:41:35,525
No matter how you hide it, movies will reflect your true self

393
00:41:39,998 --> 00:41:44,334
So I have to paint something real and I have to believe in it

394
00:42:02,020 --> 00:42:04,588
Hayao Miyazaki continues to draw storyboards

395
00:42:11,462 --> 00:42:13,597
Zongsuke ran towards Granny Chen

396
00:42:20,171 --> 00:42:21,371
when she saw him

397
00:42:25,743 --> 00:42:27,911
How can she walk

398
00:42:30,214 --> 00:42:32,182
She can actually walk

399
00:42:49,500 --> 00:42:51,868
Grandma Chen should not be able to walk

400
00:42:51,903 --> 00:42:53,570
But she was too worried about Sousuke

401
00:42:53,571 --> 00:42:55,572
So he stood up without thinking

402
00:43:08,319 --> 00:43:09,986
She calls his name again

403
00:43:21,265 --> 00:43:22,299
Day 2

404
00:44:01,973 --> 00:44:04,941
What will Granny Chen do when she sees Sousuke?

405
00:44:09,547 --> 00:44:11,681
What does Hayao Miyazaki want her to do?

406
00:44:31,235 --> 00:44:32,602
Grandma Chen started running

407
00:44:41,412 --> 00:44:43,413
She rushed down the stairs

408
00:44:50,054 --> 00:44:52,923
Shouting "Sousuke, come here"

409
00:45:02,166 --> 00:45:03,500
That's it for today

410
00:45:09,373 --> 00:45:11,741
Goodbye

411
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,561
Another day passed in the studio

412
00:45:31,596 --> 00:45:33,797
The staff are finishing their work one after another to prepare for the New Year

413
00:45:44,208 --> 00:45:47,711
But Hayao Miyazaki began to draw storyboards

414
00:45:53,417 --> 00:45:55,852
Zongsuke heard Granny Chen shout "Come here"

415
00:46:11,402 --> 00:46:12,736
He threw himself at her

416
00:46:43,534 --> 00:46:46,202
Hayao Miyazaki draws faster and faster

417
00:46:57,448 --> 00:47:00,350
Granny Chen caught Zongsuke and held him in her arms

418
00:47:18,502 --> 00:47:21,738
It's like Miyazaki's mother hugged him

419
00:47:28,612 --> 00:47:31,281
Rest time is up

420
00:47:49,633 --> 00:47:51,368
June 2008 "Ponyo on the Cliff"

421
00:47:51,402 --> 00:47:53,903
Finally finished

422
00:48:13,858 --> 00:48:15,625
Thank you all for your hard work
