Reviews

As Rayna Denison's new book, Studio Ghibli: An Industrial History, outlines, there are all sorts of assumptions made by commentators on Studio Ghibli's work, including the one that Hayao Miyazaki is the be-all and end-all of its output. ... while Ghibli might be the obvious starting point for publishers, authors and readers, Denison's book will set a standard for many years to come. (Jonathan Clements, All the Anime, blog.alltheanime.com, February 26, 2023)
