On this exact time, the first #Toonami broadcast began to air on TV sets across the nation. Years have passed since, but the mission remains the same: To build a Better Cartoon Show! Happy 21st Birthday! (Careful with the beer though.)
Farewell ceremony for Isao Takahata has been held today. Hayao Miyazaki “I thought you would live to 95. Thank you, Paku-san. I will never forget you. You spoke to me for the first time at the bus stop after the rain 55 years ago.”
Miyazaki dedicated a flower to his best friend.
Joe Hisaishi “Takahata-san chose me for a music composer of Nausicaä even though I was totally nameless. Thanks to him, I can be. I’m proud to have worked together. He is still alive in my heart. I don’t say good bye, see you again.” | (via @otakucalendarjp)
It’s Toonami DAY
My sister got me these Ghibli posters for my birthday a few days ago! I framed them today and they look absolutely wonderful above my desk :)
Best show on T.V. period...:)
