This is a huge bummer, they may not be shutting down right away but it looks like it won't take much longer until they are kaput.

Daaaah!

 

And today was going so swimmingly. To me this is like Jim Henson Creature Shop or ILM or Disney shutting down. I try not to make downer posts so I'll stop here with a single tear ... '

This hurts my heart bad... Studio Ghibli films slowing down and soon in a hiatus from production? I never even thought such a thing...

I still have no proper words. I will post this instead.

I never cared much for Studio Ghibli, but I know the movies made by it are pretty well recieved, so yeah, they will be missed if this does lead to them shutting down.
