(comment) It was drawn when you visited "The World of Hayao Miyazaki and Yasuo Otsuka" at the summer festival commemorating the second anniversary of Animepolis Pero in Osaka. On this occasion, Hayao Miyazaki is drawing some colored papers, mainly Conan, the future boy.
I wonder if he thought Conan was his masterpiece at the time.
Hayao Miyazaki left Telecom and became a freelancer, and Nausicaa began to be serialized as an animation series only six months ago, before it was decided to be made into an animation or movie. So it's a cartoon version of Nausicaa.
The cartoon Nausicaa began to serialize in the February 1982 issue of Anime, and the film Nausicaa began production in May 1983 and was released in 1984. When the movie was released, Nausicaa's colored paper was drawn in various mediums, and most of the Manzaraa works were drawn in 1984. The colored paper of Nausicaa painted in 1982 has never appeared even with Manzarai. And that alone, you can see how rare this is.
In fact, I wonder how many more Nausicaa prints from this earliest period exist in the world.
As you can tell at a glance, this glittering piece is the best among Hayao Miyazaki's colored papers.
Reminiscent of the battle with Trmecchia in the early days of the story, it has a dignified expression and color and is painted in every detail.
I don't know how long it will take for these wonderful Nausicas to return. It's the only time you get something that could be called a monument to Japanese animation.
