Synopsis

'An impressively deep dive... Essential for anime enthusiasts.'
- EMPIRE

Step beyond the magical movies and explore the wider world of Studio Ghibli.

Hailed as perhaps the greatest animation studio in the world, Studio Ghibli's influence extends far further than the cinema screen. Ghibliverse plots a course through the universe outside the films, showcasing a wonderful web of inspirations and influences for Ghibli fans old and new to enjoy.

From blockbuster stage shows and rare manga to forgotten television series and brand new theme parks, and from literary masterpieces and rival studios to soundtracks and secret short films, expert authors and hosts of the hit Ghibliotheque podcast Michael Leader and Jake Cunningham show that the magic doesn't stop when the film credits roll.
