Studio Ghibli Movie Collection 1984 2020 B Work [updated] Jun 2026

As the studio moved into the 2010s, the collection reflected a period of transition and experimentation. The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (2013), directed by Isao Takahata, utilized a minimalist, watercolor-inspired animation style that deviated from the classic Ghibli look, proving the studio’s commitment to artistic innovation. Following the initial retirement of Hayao Miyazaki after The Wind Rises (2013), the studio explored new directions with When Marnie Was There (2014) and the co-produced The Red Turtle (2016). The 2020 release of Earwig and the Witch marked the studio’s first full foray into 3D CGI animation, a controversial shift that sparked debate among fans about the future of the studio's traditional craft.
