The show is called "Ronia The Robber’s Daughter", and is based on a story by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. The show, which will debut in Japan this fall, will be directed by Hayao Miyazaki’s son Goro.

Hayao Miyazaki is retiring and so he will be making his final movie during this year. I think the movie is going to be about world war II or something like that. Anyways, it sounds good and is said to be his last film he will direct before he retires. I heard about this from my brother a couple days ago. I'm soo glad I got to expierence watching his films while growing up.

Goro's works are ok, but sometimes they make no sense to me, and I get a little puzzled while watching them.

Great! I love Studio Ghibli almost as much as I'm crazy for Tezuka's stories!

Miyazaki's last film is about the world war, yeah. It's called Kaze Tachinu and is mainly focused on a young boy dreaming of building a flying machine.

Also found this on Studio Ghibil in a tourist guide on line.
That robot statue looks familiar!

That's the robot from Castle in the Sky, one of Studio Ghibli's best earlier films ;)
