ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome back to the pod!! Today, we revisit Studio Ghibli’s Only Yesterday, Isao Takahata’s beautifully understated coming-of-age film about memory, adulthood, nostalgia, and the complicated process of looking back at who we once were.
We discuss what makes Only Yesterday such a unique Studio Ghibli movie, from its intimate story and richly detailed animation to its reflections on childhood, identity, growing up, and the choices that shape our adult lives. We also explore how the film uses nostalgia not simply to romanticize the past, but to help us understand the present.
