(comment) He is smoking his favorite pipe and has a fearless expression on his face. When it comes to characters that have been popularized by various writers across eras and national borders, and whose charm remains undiminished today, Holmes is probably at the top of the list. Production on the animated version, in which Miyazaki was involved, began in 1981 but was quickly halted. In 1984, "Blue Red Gyoku/Treasure under the Sea'' was finally released as a simultaneous screening of "Nausicaa.'' When "Laputa'' was released on August 2, 1986, "The Mrs. Hudson Hostage Crisis/The Great Air Battle of the Straits of Dover'' was also shown due to the positive reviews. This shikishi was drawn just before I saw Holmes again at the theater. It's extremely rare to have Holmes handwritten by Miyazaki, but it must have been an especially brilliant reunion for the fans who had been waiting for it (Takabatake)
