Looks amazing! The entire movie is hand-drawn, totalling 170,000 drawings, with no computer-animation, proving that hand-drawn animation still lives. The story is a loose adaptation of Urashima Taro, The Little Mermaid, and Wagner's Valkyrie. I can't wait to see it!

Ooooh that looks so good! I've been waiting for a trailer for this for ever! Makes me wonder how Ponyo doesn't get the beep zapped out of her when she touches the jellyfish? Maybe shes like an extra strong clown fish! Well her character design is definitely not the stereotypical beautiful fish chick. She kinda looks like a little fish boy actually lol. The theme song is hilarious!

Anyways, I'm ultra excited for this one! I got all happy as soon as I saw the Studio Ghibli logo. I love Miyazaki's anime films! Thanks for sharing!!
