Hayo Miyazaki created the animation studio Ghibli, the success of this studio can be spelled through naming of just a few of the aforementioned animations: Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Ponyo, Castle in the Sky. And now he left the group. Is like harakiri. And why? As he said: And what will he do? http://ajw.asahi.com/article/cool_japan/movies/AJ201309270012 His future work will include the Ghibli's Museum: The Nutcracker and the Mouse King & The Lens at Work in The Ghibli Forest

And a link with a newsstory about one the most well-known Japanese anime directors of all time. Thanks YourEyes for educating the uninformed. I just ordered 6 of his movies from Amazon, including Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, and Ponyo. I love his magical surrealistic storylines. Sometimes when I remember back, I can't tell if I actually saw something in his movies or dreamed it.
