Thoughts About Studio Ghibli films in Kingdom Hearts III

Posted

Studio Ghibli, an awesome animation company with famous movies like Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, and Howl's Moving Castle. Studio Ghibli even worked with a gaming studio to make Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch! Now, what do you think of having a Studio Ghibli movie in KH3 since Ghibli has a connection with Disney? I'd love to see worlds based off of The Cat Returns, Howl's, and Princess Mononoke

Well, while the worlds would be beautiful, the studeo is on extended hiatus right now and we don't know when, or if, they'll com out of it.  Also, yes Disney worked to distribute their films in NA, but they have no rightss to them, either Disney or Square would have to apporach Ghibli directly for there to even be a chance.

I wouldn't mind seeing it, but I feel like it might be better spent as an alternative level, like Atlantica or 100 Acre Wood (I know these are both controversial, but at least they try something different). Most Ghibli films are pretty introspective, and in terms of level design, I could really only see Nausicaa or Princess Mononoke fitting the traditional Kingdom Hearts gamestyle.

Ghibli films have that magic and whimsy to them that wouldn't feel too out of place in Kingdom Hearts, but it probably won't happen. If I recall, Disney is only in charge of the films' localization. Disney's connection to Ghibli is too esoteric to be included in Kingdom Hearts.

That is true. 

 

Thank you, John Lasseter, you little con artist.

They are very close pals.

 

 

To be honest this is probably one of the only properties outside of main disney films that I would like to see. The animation and storytelling style would mesh extremely well with that of Kingdom Hearts. The only downside is many Studio Chibli films do not focus on combat and instead focus on other main plot devices. So unless Sora is just strutting around these worlds without a weapon or the stories of the worlds were drastically altered to fit the fighting theme (which would ruin some wonderful stories) I don't see this as something likely to happen. But maybe Nomura will use some of his Nomura magic to suprise us all.

That's a big ass stretch, but it's certainly not a terrible idea. I could think of a couple films that could work with KH.
