    1. He wasn’t a deadbeat dad. He was a workaholic and distance father, but he provided for his kids.

    2. He was a workaholic and expected the same level of commitment from his employees, not more. He frequently reanimated whole scenes while his eyes would allow it. Difficult to work with? Sure. Cunt? Nah.

    3. His work consistently had anti-war, pro-environmental and pro-worker/socialism themes. He made something more then “good anime”.

    I’m wondering what shit takes you think he has or why they should outweigh his other accomplishments.

    btw, Miyazaki grew up around his uncle’s plane factory. That’s why he has an appreciation of flying scenes and why he made Wind Raises, which really isn’t pro-war when you start dissecting it.

    edit: He also has some of the best written female characters, each unique and sensible for the story.
