YesAsia Editorial Description

A monumental achievement in the world of Japanese animation, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is considered by many to be Miyazaki Hayao's masterpiece. With the coexistence of humans and nature as its central theme, this fantastic tale is set in a sobering vision of what could be our own near future.

After an apocalyptic war knows as the "Seven Days of Fire," the civilizations that humans had prized so highly were wiped out. One thousand years after the war, the remnants of humanity eke out their existence in a small area of land, threatened on all sides by the "Sea of Corruption," a vast forest of fungi and insects.

One evening, a gigantic transport vessel hailing from the Kingdom of Torumekia crashes into the Valley of the Wind - a small pocket of land protected by ocean breezes from the deadly "miasma" gas that blows across the land. The people of the valley, under the direction of Princess Nausicaa, work to clean up the wreckage of the vessel, and in its remains they discover the devastating weapon that obliterated humanity so many years ago in the war.

The valley is attacked by Kushana, princess of Torumekia, and soon the inhabitants of the valley become caught in the middle of a war between Torumekia and the city of Pejite...

This 2-DVD set includes plenty of extras, including storyboards accompanied by the film's soundtrack. By using the angle button on the DVD remote control, it is possible to switch between storyboards and finished film scenes. Other extras include audio commentary, theatrical trailers and teasers. The cover art is an original watercolor by Miyazaki himself. First pressing also includes a soft case embellished with a blue angel.

Product Information

タイトル:風の谷のナウシカ: (通常版)
出演:島本須美/納谷悟朗/松田洋治/榊原良子/家弓家正/辻村真人/京田尚子/永井一郎
監督:宮崎駿

日本アニメ史上に金字塔を打ち立てた宮崎駿の意欲作。人間と自然の共存をテーマに描く壮大なファンタジー。

かつて"火の七日間"と呼ばれる最終戦争があり、人類が誇ってきた文明は壊滅した。それから約1000年後、生き残った人類は巨大な昆虫類と"腐海"と呼ばれる菌類の森におびやかされながら、細々と暮らしていた。そんなある晩、腐海のほとりにありながらも、海から吹く風で腐海の瘴気から守られている"風の谷"に、トルメキアの巨大輸送船が墜落する。王女ナウシカの指揮のもと、事故処理に当たっていた風の谷の人々は、輸送船の残骸から、古の大戦争で人類を滅ぼした殺戮兵器"巨神兵"を発見する。そこへトルメキア王国の皇女クシャナが攻め寄せ、ナウシカたちは巨神兵を巡るペジテ市とトルメキア王国の争いに、否応なく巻き込まれてしまう…。
「千と千尋の神隠し」など空前のヒット作を数多く放ってきた、宮崎駿の同名漫画を映像化。日本のアニメ史上に金字塔を打ち立てた、宮崎駿の初期の代表作とも言える。原作・脚本・監督のすべてを宮崎駿が担当した本作は、人間と自然の共存をテーマにした意欲作として高い評価を得た。音楽を担当するのは、宮崎作品に欠かせない久石譲。

Doomsday tale meets anime
Miyazaki Hayao's Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind presents an apocalyptic fantasy tale admonishing the horrors of war and the continued pollution of the environment by ignorant human behavior. In his second feature-length animation released in spring 1984, Japan's master director and animator warns of how mankind may finally bring about their own destruction through senseless warring activities and ignorant use of advanced technology, turning originally fertile land into one filled with toxic elements. At the center of Miyazaki's film is the relentless fight against all odds of a peaceful boundary nation living in the remote Valley of the Wind, as nature turns against them and power-greedy third forces invade their territory. Miyazaki also underlines themes like tolerance between all living beings and, as in many of his other works, the wonders of flying.


Beside, female protagonist Princess Nausicaa who is kind, wise and brave beyond her years, Miyazaki lines up a list of other interesting characters including courageous Prince Asbel and Nausicaa's super agile master instructor, Yupa Meraruda. He also presents some unique non-human characters that stand out from the cast of warriors, royal descendants, and hoodlums, like cute fox squirrel Teto and Yupa's ostrich-like camels Kui and Kai. Showing the horrendous effects of inconsiderate destruction and super-natural mutation and the atrocities of invasion, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind unveils a story of grand dimensions with fantastic elements, original ideas, and a touch of truth. Miyazaki's epic tale features lavish art animation, embellished with an atmospheric music score by his usual composer Hisaishi Joe, pulling the viewers into a fantastic tale of destruction and hope.

This was pretty good Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
I had to watch this twice because I missed parts of it... It was quite interesting but not too exciting with a tad bit of romance... It really shows that women are quite strong... as both leads, evil and good are female... Something enjoyable to watch after you've watched the super good ones...

Kaze no Tani no Naushika Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is my favorite movie and its too bad theres no rating of 11 and above. It deserves more than a 10. If you were one of the first people to pre order, you were able to get a soft case as a first pressing edition.

1st DVD contains the theatrical feature and a movie trailer for Ghost in the Shell: Innocence.
2nd DVD comes loaded with extras (nausicaa trailers, making of nausicaa, etc).

Don't just sit there pondering and procastinating. Buy it!
