Love Hayao Miyazaki? Love Studio Ghibli? Loved his latest movie, Ponyo? Then stop on by Ponyo Day at Kinokuniya Bookstore this Saturday, March 6th!
SBR will be having a Hayao Miyazaki-themed quiz show. We will ask a variety of questions pertaining to Ponyo and Miyazaki’s other works. The winners will receive a wide variety of prizes, courtesy of Walt Disney Home Entertainment. Contestants who want to participate in the quiz can sign up on that day. We will have a sign-up form ready for you guys.
Misako Rocks! & Hills Learning Center will stop to promote Ghibli in their own unique ways. If that doesn’t excite you yet, Roland Kelts, author of the hit book “JAPANAMERICA: How Japanese Pop Culture Invaded The U.S.”, will also stop by to share his thoughts on the genius that is Hayao Miyazaki. An interactive discussion entitled “How We Grew Up With Ghibli” will also take place with Megumi as one of the panelists onbroad. Oh yeah, everyone’s favorite event: the big raffle will be held too, courtesy of Walt Disney Home Entertainment & New York Anime Festival. :]
Also, Kinokuniya is having a special deal going on right now. If you buy “Ponyo” on Blu-Ray or DVD and either “Kiki’s Delivery Service”, “Castle in the Sky”, or “My Neighbor Totoro”, you will get $10 off your total purchase.
So what are you waiting for? If you’re a huge Miyazaki fan, please stop by and pay homage to one of the greatest Japanese animators of all time! See you there!
