This critical study of Miyazaki's work begins with an analysis of the visual conventions of \u003cem\u003emanga\u003c\/em\u003e, Japanese comic books, and \u003cem\u003eanime\u003c\/em\u003e; an overview of Japanese animated films; and a consideration of the techniques deployed by both traditional cel and computer animation. This section also details Miyazaki's early forays into comic books and animation, and his output prior to his founding of Studio Ghibli. Part Two concentrates on the Studio Ghibli era, outlining the company's development and analyzing the director's productions between 1984 and 2004, including \u003cem\u003eCastle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro\u003c\/em\u003e and his newest film, \u003cem\u003eHowl's Moving Castle\u003c\/em\u003e. The second section also discusses other productions involving Studio Ghibli, including \u003cem\u003eGrave of the Fireflies\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Cat Returns\u003c\/em\u003e.
