Hayao Miyazaki Research Paper

Miyazaki’s childhood was short as he was born January 5, 1941 during World War II, thus without exception, his films main characters are children, deal with growing up and often consist of one young female lead and one young male lead. This is evident in My Neighbor Totoro (1988) as the two main characters are young girls who, unlike adults, can see and befriend the spirits of the spirit world. In Spirited Away (2001), the leading character Chihiro is a young girl who must deal with growing up, similarly to Kiki in Kiki’s Delivery Service (1989). Princess Mononoke (1997) also features these stock characters in the form of young San, adopted daughter of the wolf goddess Moro and Prince Ashitaka, a young girl and boy. Hayao Miyazaki has expressed strong feelings about childhood, saying that it's a paradisiacal time when, "you're protected by your parents and unaware of the problems around you". Miyazaki’s upbringing during World War II would explain another unique mark of his films, that being his interest in flight.

On March 22, 1929 in a mountainous region called Matsumoto which can be located in central Japan the world-famous artist Yayoi Kusama was born. Around the age of 10 she began using water color paints and lightly started to dabble in the arts. Kusama says she took up painting around the same time she started experiencing hallucinations. However, her family was not supportive of her pursuing any form of arts and would actually ruin the work she created as such a young age in hopes it would deter her from continuing in the field.
