Introduction

    The dog days of summer continue on the MML, another slllooowww week.

1. All "Sen" All the Time

(6 posts in various threads): Sen press conference, Sen related TV programs in Japan, Sen Story page, Sen related TV programs

In honor of the Japanese theatrical release of "Sen", this thread contains all the posts related to "Sen".

Ryoko Toyama announced the availability of many more page in the Sen section of Nausicaa.net:

The Story page of Sen to Chihiro is now up in the Nausicaa.net.

http://www.nausicaa.net/miyazaki/sen/story.html Linked from there are:

Turns out the poem isn't by Miyazaki, but by the staff at Studio Ghibli.

Ryoko also posted news from a press conference Miyazaki held, "At the press conference, Miyazaki-San said that this is the last *feature-length* film he makes, saying that it is now physically impossible to endure the long and hard work of directing a feature-length film. (But that's what he said when he made Mononoke.) He said that he will spend his time for the Ghibli museum and such in future."

Atsushi Fukumoto posted links to videos of the press conference, which you can find here. That page also contains a ton of other video clips, check it out!

TV shows (in Japan, natch) with "Sen" features.

Even more TV shows (all past due ^_^)

Conclusion

    Gah! Another one thread week. I've just found out that the listserv is having problems, I haven't gotten a single MML message in a few days. Hopefully the problem will be fixed soon and the message flood will resume. @_@
