Ghibli is done anyway with Miyazaki resigning. I assume that moving forward, ghibli will foremost be an IP holder making money off of licensing.

He's not resigning though, they already announced he's not done making films.

Wow wow wow…. Doesn’t surprise me. When he inevitably passes, he’ll probably be found behind an animators desk

Thanks for this
