Miyazaki has endowed the power of flight to Princess Nausica in Nausica of the Valley of the Winds, the airboat in Laputa: The Castle in the Sky, Totoro in My Neighbour Totoro, Kiki in Kiki's Delivery Service, the aeroplane in Porco Rosso, as well as the moving castle in his latest hit, Howl's Moving Castle.

Choosing Takuya Kimura as the dubbing actor for Howl, the animation king adds more attractiveness to the film.
