Ghibli men and women in Bulgarian headdress 🇧🇬 This is the third, and last part—continuation to this post.
The last two illustrations are based on the Ghibli movie 'Only Yesterday'. In the scene when the protagonist, Taeko, picks safflower, the Bulgarian song 'Malka Moma Dvori Mete' plays in the background. In my interpretation, she's picking rose petals in the Bulgarian Rose Valley. 🌹
I love that casting choice of having Takuya Kimura and Christian Bale, who both voiced Howl in the sub and dub of Howl’s Moving Castle, voice Maihto’s father in The Boy and the Heron. I don’t know if that was done on purpose or not, but it’s quite a coincidence that it ended up being that way.
私と共に生きてくれ。”I can’t tell you how happy I was when you chose to come back and leave the pure land unsullied. That’s when I realized that the purpose of this journey was for me to meet you. Live your life with me, Nausicaä.”
“Trust me Nausicaä, turn you body over to me for the moment. “
I turned some manga panels into movie stills, because I love Nausicaä and Selm, but the anime doesn’t even show us Selm.
