Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe end credits feature a montage of still illustrations done in traditional pencil and ink style, unlike the preceding 80 minutes of CG animation. These static drawings show events that happen after the end of the movie. A similar technique was done in an earlier Ghibli movie, My Neighbor Totoro (1988). In one of them, Earwig is seen watching on her brand new TV another Studio Ghibli animated movie, Howl's Moving Castle (2004).

Featured review
Hope we haven't seen the future of Ghibli
Started out with a great premise, then lost sight of it in the tangles it wove. The CGI characters had the look of those on cheap TV kids' shows, but the backgrounds in which they moved were Ghibli quality (of the past) in detail. As one of the other reviews mentioned, this was 2/3rds of a movie. That might be fortunate - character development was getting really annoying, especially that of Earwig herself.
