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.

Was in a silly goofy mood and colourized some pages from the Nausicaa manga. They’re a little rough around the edges because I Did This For Fun.
(To be clear I love and respect black and white comics and have nothing but respect for Miyazaki’s work, I just wanted to practice my comic colouring and happen to love this manga so much! All art by Hayao Miyazaki, colour by me)

It's so tiring seeing a post about Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind that starts out so strong, complaining that common looks at the "ghibli aesthetic" sand down both the actual art styles that ghibli movies use as well as the themes inherent to the works, only for that post to fall for the extremely common blunder so many of these sorts of posts fall into. It proceeds to describe what Nausicaa is "about" without discussing:
Any of the story from the source manga at all, which makes far more complex and nuanced points than the inherently limited movie that had to constantly shave down its script and make sacrifices in production to fit even 1/6th of the manga into a film.
Within the movie itself, any of the film's discussion on colonial occupation, the relationship between the colonial siphoning of resources and the perception of nature that hinders that as "valueless," and really any of the discussion on war at all seriously how the fuck do people manage to talk about Nausicaa without mentioning the elephant in the room
Discussion of Nausicaa's environmental messages are certainly not without merit, and it would be stupid to deny their presence in the story, but it is exhausting seeing people either deliberately dance around or somehow miss the hugely prevalent subjects of colonialism, weapons of mass destruction, the attempted suppression of native religions for the benefit of empire, gender roles, motherhood, racism, and more.
Even if you're solely looking at environmental messaging within the work, the manga has so much more to dig into. The level of complexity that the movie is able to cover in terms of the relationship between human life and the sea of corruption and the purpose that it serves on the Earth is like. Weenie Hut Jr. compared to the full reveals and discussions the manga gets into about the nature of the Ohmu and the Sea of Corruption. The movie's reveals about the sea of corruption are fundamentals the story needs to establish before moving to the much meatier thematic exploration that facilitates. Stopping there with only what the movie covers is just disappointing.
Miyazaki is a man with a lot of opinions about war and Nausicaa is arguably the work of his that most openly puts that at the forefront. To see that constantly pushed aside in favor of endlessly retreading the same points about the movie's limited depiction of the story's environmental messages is just sad.

What if we kissed in front of the flag of Tolmekia 😳🙈
It's been more than one year since I'd first drawn them together. It's insane how much their designs in my style changed since then. I've decided to change their color pallettes because there are a lot of references to South Asia in the worldbuilding and the designs but everyone is strangely white and this might have been the best decision in my life

Reminder to read the Nausicaa manga, also by Hayao Miyazaki. So many people are missing out on this great epic and setting full of interesting characters, and beautifully drawn too.
Unironically my favourite manga, been reading it every years since my childhood

miyazaki can try to prove otherwise if he wants to but i know for a fact he was enjoying the hell out of himself when he made kushana's brother #1 be killed in midair by ten thousand angry insects five seconds after leaving his sister defenseless to be killed by said angry insects. the greatest believer in karma is a bitch

Just finished the Nausicaä manga and omg it was probably the best thing I’ve ever read (or laid my eyes upon. Absolutely stunning. And everything about it was fantastic from every character, to faction, to lore. Just stunning. Don’t know what I will be able to do with my life now that I’ve finished reading it.
I mean just look at this page 🤯

Watching Furiosa the day after deep diving into Nausicaä's Tumblr fandom has given me a lot of thoughts about the two of them as protagonists. Both are blue-clad girls born in a land sheltered from postapocalyptic dangers, raised by a strong and fair community that is nurturing yet knows how to defend themselves.
But the two heroines take such different trajectories: Nausicaä is able to stay in her community until the very beginning of adulthood, learning from her community, environment, and teachers. In the first chapter of the manga she is already a character well-equipped to survive her world's horrors through her physical skill and compassionate understanding of the world around her.
Furiosa is taken as a child and raised by the very people who perpetrate those horrors. Her only escape, hiding among the masses, cannot spare her from complicity. It's only when she herself is reaching the cusp of adulthood that she has a figure in her life that will tolerate any vulnerability - Jack, who mentors her in war much like Kushana mentors Nausicaä during the siege. Furiosa's natural compassion is buried under the violence that defines her world and almost ends up defining herself. She never has the opportunity to grow into the kind of heroine that Nausicaä is, which might have been her trajectory had she never been stolen from her family (perhaps such a trajectory is the next step of her journey after Fury Road?).
The last, fascinating piece to this is that both heroines are left with a choice at the end of their respective stories - totally different in nature, yet pulling on many of the same thematic threads. Nausicaä and Furiosa must both confront the fact that there are no innocents left in their world, tainted as it is by war. Yet they choose to believe that someday, an innocent humanity might exist. In fact, they stake the entire world's future on that belief. Both these women start and end in the same place, and their vastly different journeys tell us the same thing about the nature of hope in the wasteland.

The Real Blue Clad One
And green and red…
Anyway, this piece marks my return to pixel art after a very long hiatus, from which only the illustrious Kurotowa could pull me out. When I first saw the Nausicaä movie I was infatuated with the aircraft, and after reading the manga I just had to draw the bestest lad standing in front of one.
