Our new Heritage Minute: NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE just won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Original Song … for “The Alphabet Song.” This is not a joke.
Historically significant figure, not just establishing KyoAni but quietly having a hand in the founding of another iconic studio like the eventual Production IG. Most importantly, a great person who helped shape the humane philosophy that has always characterized the studio. RIP
