This is a subreddit dedicated to Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind (風の谷のナウシカ "Kaze no tani no Naushika") by Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿).

About

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (or original: 風の谷のナウシカ) is a manga created by Hayao Miyazaki from 1982-1994 with some pauses in between. In 1984 an animated movie with the same name was released, whose great success led to the foundation of Studio Ghibli.

Manga vs. Anime

If you only watched the movie, then definitely check out the manga. The movie only covers ~1/4 of the story and the ending is different. In the manga the story goes way deeper and a lot of characters aren't featured in the anime.

If you have only read the manga, the anime is quite different and also worth watching. The soundtrack by Joe Hisaishi alone is a huge plus point.

Posting Rules

  • Feel free to post anything Nausicaä related (or similar works you think we should check out).
  • As always, please follow the reddiquette

Posting comments

  • No personal attacks or offenses (Nausicaä wouldn't do that, so why would you?)

Travel set?

I have the box set which I love and I really enjoy the movie obviously but I love to backpack and can’t take either with me. Any good travel sized options y’all can think of? Thanks

TotKA Kickstarter drawing to a close. Discover a future plant Earth, nigh-on destroyed by the hubris of mankind and now the realm of the Great Insects!

Last few days - pledge your support and join us in the perilous Age of Kytin!

Tales of the Kytin Age is a brand new TTRPG designed for sandbox, campaign play. Set in the distant future, planet Earth has become host to the Great Insects: giant, mutated creatures that dominate the land, air and sea. Mankind has spent millennia skulking in the ruins of our long-dead civilisation, but after the Great Insect Wars, currently enjoy a ‘golden age’ of rising prosperity and a higher chance of survival. Towns and cities are formidable in their defence against the huge monsters that prowl field, forest and desolate wasteland.

Beyond these protected urban centres, it is every person for themselves. Daring travellers join long caravans of protected wagons as they move from place to place, merchants, scholars and craftsfolk among them. Intrepid explorers band together to push the boundaries of human knowledge, investigating the ruins and remains of many fallen or failed proto-civilisations. And, as always, brigands and bandits pose an additional threat to their fellow folk.

A rich and detailed character creation system teaches the basic rules of the game, provides instant character-orientated goals, and readies players for the perils they will encounter. Simple, yet gritty and deadly mechanics provide an intuitive, tactical combat system, and a single, fundamental rule covers combat, skill and ability use with only a few exceptions.

Embracing the design sensibilities of 70’s and 80’s RPG’s, but with a lick of modern paint and stunning, full colour artwork, Tales of the Kytin Age is gloriously ambitious title destined to receive multiple expansions, adventure supplements and even a line of custom miniatures.

With only a few short days remaining on its debut Kickstarter campaign, now is the time to lighten your ky-strip and invest in this exciting, independently published RPG. The result of over 30 year’s development, including 6 dedicated to visual world-building, this is no ‘flash-in-the-pan’ affair, and the Kickstarter offers everything required to jump into the Kytin Age at the beginning of its published life-cycle.

We’re fully funded but copies of the game are limited and the Kickstarter allows more than a 10% discount on the Deluxe Edition’s RRP. Backers will receive their copies before general sale begins and also have their name featured in the Core Game Book!

For more information, you can dive into the following interviews with Geoff Gray, the game’s creator:

Nausicaa Soundtrack

Can someone Please for the love of God tell me what the song is that plays during the secret garden scene where Lord Yupa discovers the garden Nausicaa is growing in the castle. I cannot find the soundtrack for that scene anywhere. I believe it plays in one or two other scenes as well.
