This month (March 11th, 2024 to be exact) marked the 40th
anniversary of the release of the film Nausicaa of
the Valley of the Wind. So to celebrate this
momentous occasion, friend of the show & HUGE
Nausicaa fan Rachel is back to discuss the
history of not just the film, but the manga it's based off
of! Since the Nausicaa is pretty widely
available at this point, we DO talk openly with spoilers. So
if you've never seen the film before, go have a watch and
then come back to listen to us do a deep dive & gush
about what makes this movie so special in this extra-long
episode!
