This man deserves all accolades/awards he gets. Would love to see him direct at least one more feature before he retires.

He could be my favourite living director (in general, not only of animated movies); I really, really hope he'll direct at least another movie! Very Happy

What changes in animation have you seen that most delight you? What has distressed you?

  • Takahata: What has both delighted and distressed me has been the advance in computers. With advances in computers it has become possible to do things that we couldn’t do before. And this will no doubt continue in the future. Without computers, we could not have depicted the kind of expressions we were able to in “The Tale of the Princess Kaguya.” This is a wonderful advance and, for me, something to delight in.

    And yet, due to the advance in computers, there is a tendency to overly rely on them. This has led to diminishment in various modes of expression. This is most distressing for me.
