Iblard is the imaginary world depicted in Inoue's paintings, which Ghibli has animated with selective digital animation. Inoue's Iblard art inspired the fantasy storybook sequences in Whisper of the Heart. Buena Vista will release Iblard Jikan on July 4 (the same date as Tales from Earthsea) on DVD and Blu-ray Disc.
