It was animated by Topcraft for Tokuma Shoten and Hakuhodo, and distributed by the Toei Company. Joe Hisaishi, in his first collaboration with Miyazaki, composed the film 's score. The film stars the voices of Sumi Shimamoto, Goro Naya, Yoji Matsuda, Yoshiko Sakakibara and Iemasa Kayumi. Taking place in a future post-apocalyptic world, the film tells the story of Nausicaä ( Shimamoto ), the young princess of the Valley of the Wind. She becomes embroiled in a struggle with Tolmekia, a kingdom that tries to use an ancient weapon to eradicate a jungle of mutant giant insects. Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind was released in Japan on 11 March 1984. Though it was made before Studio Ghibli was founded, it is often considered a Ghibli work, and was released as part of the Studio Ghibli Collection DVD and Blu - ray range. The film received critical acclaim, praising the story, themes, characters and animation. It is frequently ranked as one of the greatest animated films ever made.

In the kingdom of the Valley of the Wind, a prophecy predicts a saviour `` clothed in blue robes, descending onto a golden field ''. Nausicaä, the princess of the Valley of the Wind, explores the jungle and communicates with its creatures, including the gigantic, trilobite - like armored Ohm. She hopes to understand the jungle and find a way for it and humans to co-exist. Late in the night, a massive cargo aircraft from the kingdom of Tolmekia crashes in the Valley despite Nausicaä 's attempt to save it. Its sole survivor, Princess Lastelle of Pejite, pleads with Nausicaä to destroy the cargo and dies. The cargo is an embryo of a Giant Warrior, one of the lethal, gargantuan humanoid bioweapons that caused the Seven Days of Fire. Tolmekia, a military state, seized the embryo and Lastelle from Pejite, but their plane was attacked by insects and crashed. One of the insects emerges wounded from the wreckage and poises to attack, but Nausicaä uses a bullroarer to calm it and guides it away from the village. Soon after, Tolmekian troops, led by Princess Kushana, invade the Valley, execute Nausicaä 's father and capture the embryo. Enraged, Nausicaä kills several Tolmekian soldiers and is about to be overwhelmed when the Valley 's swordsmaster, Lord Yupa, soothes the belligerents. Kushana plans to mature the Giant Warrior and use it to burn the Toxic Jungle. Yupa discovers a secret garden of jungle plants reared by Nausicaä ; according to her findings, plants that grow in clean soil and water are not toxic, but the jungle 's soil has been tainted by pollution. Kushana leaves for the Tolmekian capital with Nausicaä and five hostages from the Valley, but a Pejite interceptor shoots down the Tolmekian airships carrying them. Nausicaä, Kushana and the hostages crash - land in the jungle, disturbing several Ohms, which Nausicaä soothes. She leaves to rescue the Pejite pilot Asbel, brother of Princess Lastelle, but both crash through a stratum of quicksand into a non-toxic area below the Toxic Jungle. Nausicaä realizes that the jungle plants purify the polluted topsoil, producing clean water and soil underground. Nausicaä and Asbel return to Pejite but find it ravaged by insects. A band of survivors explains that they lured the insects to eradicate the Tolmekians, and are doing the same to the Valley. They capture Nausicaä to prevent her from warning the Valley, but with the help of Asbel, his mother, and a number of sympathizers, Nausicaä escapes on her glider. Flying home, she finds two Pejite soldiers baiting thousands of Ohms into the Valley using a wounded baby Ohm. The people of the Valley take shelter while the Tolmekians deploy tanks and the Giant Warrior, but tank - fire does not deter the Ohms, and the Giant Warrior, hatched prematurely, disintegrates. Nausicaä liberates the baby Ohm and gains its trust. She and the Ohm stand before the herd but are run over. The Ohms calm down and use their golden tentacles to resuscitate her. Nausicaä, her dress drenched blue with Ohm blood, walks atop golden Ohm tentacles as through golden fields, fulfilling the savior prophecy. The Ohms and Tolmekians leave the Valley, and the Pejites remain with the Valley people, helping them rebuild. Deep underneath the Toxic Jungle, a non-toxic tree sprouts.

Although Cagliostro was not a box office success, Toshio Suzuki, editor of the magazine Animage, was impressed by the film and encouraged Miyazaki to produce works for Animage 's publisher, Tokuma Shoten. Miyazaki 's film ideas were rejected, and Tokuma asked him to do a manga : this led to the creation of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. Miyazaki began writing and drawing the manga in 1981, and it quickly became Animage 's most popular feature. Hideo Ogata and Yasuyoshi Tokuma, the founders of Animage and Tokuma Shoten respectively, encouraged Miyazaki to work on a film adaptation. Miyazaki initially refused, but agreed on the condition that he could direct. In the early stages, Isao Takahata, credited as executive producer, reluctantly joined the project even before the animation studio was chosen. An outside studio to produce the film was needed because Tokuma Shoten did not own an animation studio : Miyazaki and Takahata chose the minor studio Topcraft. The production studio 's work was known to both Miyazaki and Takahata and was chosen because its artistic talent could transpose the sophisticated atmosphere of the manga to the film. On 31 May 1983, work began on the pre-production of the film. Miyazaki encountered difficulties in creating the screenplay, with only sixteen chapters of the manga to work with. Miyazaki would take elements of the story and refocus the narrative and characters to the Tolmekian invasion of Nausicaä 's homeland. Takahata would enlist the experimental and minimalist composer Joe Hisaishi to do the score for the film. In August, the animation work began on the film and was produced by animators hired for the one film and paid per frame. One notable animator was Hideaki Anno, a founding member of Gainax who among later works wrote and directed Neon Genesis Evangelion. Anno was assigned to draw the challenging God Warrior 's attack sequence, which according to Toshio Suzuki is a `` high point in the film ''. The film was released in March 1984, with a production schedule of only nine months and with a budget equivalent to $1 million. Themes Miyazaki 's work on Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind was inspired by a range of works including Ursula K. Le Guin 's Earthsea, Brian Aldiss 's Hothouse, Isaac Asimov 's Nightfall, and J.R.R Tolkien 's Lord of the Rings. Dani Cavallaro also suggests inspiration from The Princess Who Loved Insects folktale, and the works of William Golding. Nausicaä, the character, was inspired in name and personality, by Homer 's Phaeacian princess in the Odyssey. While a connection to Frank Herbert 's Dune is often made there is no confirmation apart from the name `` Ohmu '' being a syllabic rendition of the English `` worm ''. Miyazaki 's imagination was sparked by the mercury poisoning of Minamata Bay and how nature responded and thrived in a poisoned environment, using it to create the polluted world of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. Ian DeWeese - Boyd agrees, `` Her commitment to love and understanding -- even to the point of death -- transforms the very nature of the conflict around her and begins to dispel the distorting visions that have brought it about. '' The most prominent themes are the anti-war and environmental focus of the film. Nausicaä, the heroine, believes in the value of life regardless of its form and through her actions stops a war. Loy and Goodhew state there is no evil portrayed in the film, but the Buddhist roots of evil : greed, ill will and delusion. Fear is what drives the conflicts, the fear of the poisoned forest results in the greed and resentment. Nausicaä, in addition to being a transformative force, leads people to understand and respect nature which is portrayed as welcoming, spiritual, and restorative for those who enter it peacefully. The film was released, in 1984, with a recommendation from the World Wide Fund for Nature ( WWF ). On 30 July 1995, a subtitled version of the film was screened at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, in London, as part of the `` Building Bridges '' film festival, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In her 25 March 2013 presentation at Colorado College, on `` Tapestries of Apocalypse : From Angers to ' Nausicaa ' and Beyond '', Dr. Susan J. Napier places the film and in particular the tapestry, depicted underneath the opening credits, within the tradition of artistic representation of apocalypses and apocalyptic visions. She explores the role such expressions play in understanding apocalyptic events and post-event recovery. Releases The film was released by Toei Company on 11 March 1984. In Japan, the film grossed about ¥ 1.48 billion at the box office, selling 914,767 tickets, and making an additional ¥ 742 million in distribution income. Home releases include the original April 1984 Laserdisc release and as part of Juburi ga Ippai Sutajio Jiburi LD Zenshuu ( Ghibli Complete Collection : Studio Ghibli Complete LD Collection ) from August 1996, the original March 1984 VHS version by Animage and re-release by Buena Vista on 19 September 1997. Three DVD sets were released in Japan with a regular DVD and figure set released on 19 November 2003 and a collectors set following on 7 December 2003. Warriors of the Wind Box art for Warriors of the Wind New World Pictures produced a 95 - minute English - dubbed adaptation of the film, titled Warriors of the Wind, and it was released theatrically in the United States on June 13, 1985, with the VHS video release in December 1985. In the late 1980s, Vestron Video would release the film and First Independent Video would re-release it in 1993 with another minute cut from the film. The voice actors and actresses were not informed of the film 's plotline and the film was heavily edited to market it as a children 's action - adventure film. Consequently, part of the film 's narrative meaning was lost : some of the environmentalist themes were diluted as was the main subplot of the Ohmu, altered to turn them into aggressive enemies. Most of the characters ' names were changed, including the titular character who became Princess Zandra. The United States cover for the VHS release featured a cadre of male characters who are not in the film, riding the resurrected God Warrior -- including a still - living Warrior shown briefly in a flashback. Approximately 22 minutes of scenes were cut for the film 's North American release. Dissatisfied with Warriors of the Wind, Miyazaki adopted a strict `` no - edits '' clause for further foreign releases of Studio Ghibli 's films. On hearing Miramax co-chairman Harvey Weinstein would attempt to edit Princess Mononoke to make it more marketable, Toshio Suzuki sent an authentic katana with a simple message : `` No cuts ''. Warriors of the Wind also prompted Miyazaki to allow translator Toren Smith of Studio Proteus to create an official, faithful translation of the Nausicaä manga for Viz Media. Deleted scenes In addition to the opening and ending credits sequences, the following scenes were originally removed for Warriors of the Wind, but were restored after Disney 's North American DVD re-release. Nausicaä enters the Toxic Jungle. Once there, she discovers a shell belonging to a dead Ohm. While looking at one of the Ohm 's eyelids, she is surrounded by spores. After returning to the Valley of the Wind, Yupa is asked to become the godfather of a newborn girl. When a villager finds poisonous spores in one of the Valley 's fields, another villager destroys it. Yupa discusses with Mito about preventing the revival of the Giant Warrior. He eventually discovers Nausicaä 's secret garden. While there, Nausicaä reveals that she stopped the water supply. As Nausicaä departs with the Tolmekians, the Valley children give Nausicaä chico nuts as a farewell gift. While sleeping, Nausicaä remembers an episode from her childhood in which she attempted to protect a baby Ohm from the Valley 's leaders. The sequence with Nausicaä and Asbel visiting the Toxic Jungle 's non-toxic underground has been extended. The Valley citizens destroy their contaminated trees. After getting captured by the Pejites, Nausicaä argues with the Pejite Mayor about their plans for the Giant Warrior. Asbel leads Nausicaä through the women 's area of the transport brig. While Kushana and Kurotawa wait for Pejite 's assault, they release Gol and the other Valley hostages. Obaba discovers that the wind has ceased blowing. 2005 English re-release On 18 October 2003, Cindy and Donald Hewitt, the scriptwriters of Walt Disney Pictures ' English dubs of Spirited Away and Porco Rosso, announced that an unedited and redubbed version of Nausicaä was in pre-production, and that Patrick Stewart and Uma Thurman had been cast. Natalie Portman was originally intended to voice Nausicaä, but Alison Lohman was eventually assigned the role. Nausicaä was released on DVD by Buena Vista Home Entertainment on 22 February 2005 for Region 1. This DVD includes both the English dub and the Japanese audio track with English subtitles. Optimum Home Entertainment released the film in Region 2 and the Region 4 DVD is distributed by Madman Entertainment. A remastered Blu - ray sourced from a 6K filmscan was released on 14 July 2010 in Japan. It includes an uncompressed Japanese LPCM stereo track, an English dub and English subtitles. On 18 October 2010 a Blu - ray version was released in Region B by Optimum Home Entertainment. The film was released on Blu - ray in the United States and Canada on 8 March 2011 by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment. GKIDS re-issued the film on Blu - ray and DVD on 31 October 2017, along with Castle in the Sky. Other language releases Spain first released two versions of the cut film, both called Guerreros del Viento ( `` Warriors of the Wind '' ) with the first in 1987 and again 1991, and then a version of the original uncut film under the Nausicaä del Valle del Viento title in 2010. France has had both versions of the movie appear with two cut versions named La Princesse des Etoiles ( `` The Princess of the Stars '' ) and Le vaisseau fantôme ( `` The Ghost Ship '' ) : the uncut film had a regular and collector 's DVD set released on 18 April 2007. In Germany UFA released the 86 minute long cut version on VHS as Sternenkrieger ( literally `` Star Warriors '' ) in 1986 and Universum Anime released the uncut DVD release on 5 September 2005. The 2007 Hungarian release, titled Nauszika - A szél harcosai ( `` Nausicaä - The Warriors of the Wind '' ) is uncut despite the title 's reference. The Korean DVD release of the uncut film was on 3 March 2004. China has had three releases of Nausicaä : the first on Video CD and two DVD releases. The italian version was titled Nausicaä della Valle del Vento, on air on 1986. Reception Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind received critical acclaim from film critics. The film is frequently ranked among the best animated films in Japan, and is seen by critics as a seminal influence on the development of anime, as the film 's success led to the foundation of Studio Ghibli and several other anime studios. Theron Martin of Anime News Network praised the film for its character designs, as well as Hayao Miyazaki 's direction and Joe Hisaishi 's score. He also said that the film `` deserves a place on any short list of all - time classic anime movies. '' Common Sense Media, which serves to inform parents about media for children, rated the film positively and cited its good role models and positive messages, but also cautioned parents about its dramatic setting and violent scenes. As of August 2015, review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 87 % of critics gave the film positive reviews, based on 15 reviews with an average rating of 8 / 10. Helen McCarthy in 500 Essential Anime Movies praised the animation techniques of Miyazaki, stating that `` the real strength of this film is the script, packed with incident, excitement and passion, and the soundtrack '' of Joe Hisaishi. Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi has cited the manga and film as an influence on his series. As such, the horseclaws in the film were used as an inspiration for the Chocobos in the games. Numerous games have used Ohmu - like creatures, assumed to be reference to the film including Metal Slug 3 Cyber Core and Viewpoint. The game Crystalis, known in Japan as God Slayer : Haruka Tenkū no Sonata ( ゴッド ・ スレイヤー はるか 天空 の ソナタ ), shares common elements with the film, including an insect that resembles an Ohmu. Disney 's English dub was well received by audiences and critics, especially in comparison to Warriors of the Wind, with the leading voice actors frequently being praised for their performances. However, in conducting a comparative analysis of the Japanese - language anime with their English translations, Eriko Ogihara - Schuck believes that although Disney 's dub eschewed the dualistic, good versus evil worldview of Warriors of the Wind, it also `` Christianiz ( ed ) Miyazaki 's animism ''. According to her, the translators of the film were working a language suffused with Judeo - Christian idioms not found in Japanese, which they introduce to the text, such as the nature of humanity 's relationship with the environment and animals as seen in Judeo - Christian narratives and cultural practices. Examples of these changes include when Nausicaä describes an insect as a `` good boy '', a term often used in describing domesticated animals ( instead of a `` good child '', as in the Japanese version ), and when Nausicaä converses with the wounded baby Ohm - in Japanese, she does not consider forgiveness from the baby a possibility, while the English version has her asking for it, albeit admitting the difficulty for the Ohm to do so. As a result of these changes, Nausicaä 's death and subsequent resurrection by the Ohm herd present her as a Christ figure whose self - sacrifices are for humanity, rather than for nature. Ogihara - Schuck believes that Disney erased animistic motifs almost entirely from the film, even more so than Warriors of the Wind, in order to make it more accessible for American audiences due the film 's non-specific setting, since animism was retained in their versions of My Neighbour Totoro, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Ponyo, as well as their own production Pocahontas. Manga author Katsura Hoshino regarded it as her favorite anime film to the point of having it watched multiple times when she was young. Gliders Various gliders are seen in the film and the protagonist, Nausicaä, uses a jet - assisted one - person glider - shaped machine with folding wings. According to the accompanying film book released in Japan, the glider is called Möwe ( メーヴェ, Mēve, or `` mehve '' in the English manga ), the German word meaning gull. An official scale model lists it as having an approximate wingspan of 5.8 meters ( 1 / 20 model measured to be 29 cm ), while the design notes indicate it has a mass of only 12 kg. In 2004, the Japanese - led OpenSky Aircraft Project began attempts to build a real - life, working personal jet glider based on the glider from the film. Two full - size gliders with no power source carrying the code name M01 and M02, with a half - sized jet - powered remote controlled mock up called moewe 1 / 2 was built. The designer and tester of the project refused the official endorsement of the project by Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki, noting that he did not want to cause trouble for them if an accident occurred. A jet powered version ( registration number JX0122 ) was finally able to take off under its own power for the first time on 3 September 2013. Soundtracks The film 's score was composed by Joe Hisaishi, while the vocal theme song `` Kaze no Tani no Naushika '' was produced by Haruomi Hosono ( Yellow Magic Orchestra and Happy End member ) and sung by Narumi Yasuda. Numerous soundtracks and albums relating to the film have been released. Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Image Album < Bird Person > ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ イメージ アルバム 鳥 の 人 ) released 25 November 1983 Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Symphony < The Legend of Wind > ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ シンフォニー 風 の 伝説 ) released 25 February 1984 Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Soundtrack < Toward the Far Away Land > ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ サウンド トラック はるか な 地 へ ) released 25 March 1984 Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Drama Version < God of Wind > ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ ・ ドラマ 編 ) released 25 April 1984 Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Best Collection ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ BEST ) released 25 November 1986 Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Hi - tech Series ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ ・ ハイテック シリーズ ) released 25 October 1989 Nausicaä of the Valley of Wind : Piano Solo Album < For the Easy Use with Beyer > released 15 March 1992 Other Media Manga Main article : Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind ( manga ) Miyazaki 's manga version of Nausicaä was written over a period of 12 years, with breaks taken to work on Studio Ghibli films. Serialized in Tokuma Shoten 's Animage magazine, the first chapter was published in February 1982 and the last chapter in March 1994. Miyazaki adapted and altered the work for the film because only sixteen chapters of the manga were written at the time of the film 's production. The manga would continue to be produced until the seventh and final book was released on 15 January 1995. The English localization was initially done by Toren Smith and Dana Lewis of Studio Proteus. After Miyazaki resumed production of the manga, Viz Media chose a new team and continued to release the rest of manga. Video games Three video games were released based on the manga and the film. All three of the titles were developed by Technopolis Soft and published by Technopolis Soft and Tokuma Shoten. Nausicaä in the Nick of Time also known as Nausicaä 's Close Call ( Naushika Kiki Ippatsu or Nausicaä Kiki Ippatsu ) is a Japanese shoot ' em up video game developed and published by Technopolis Soft for the NEC PC - 6001 computer system in 1984. The game marketed as Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind and known by its title screen as Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ, Nausicaä Adventure Game ), is an adventure game developed by Technopolis Soft for the NEC PC - 8801 : it was released in the 1980s, most likely 1984. The third game, Wasure ji no Nausicaä Game ( 忘れ じ の ナウシカ ・ ゲーム, Nausicaä 's Forgotten Game ) for the MSX is the most well - known of the releases and has been frequently and erroneously referred to as a game where the player kills the Ohmu. These games signaled the end of video game adaptations for Hayao Miyzaki 's films. The only other games based on Miyazaki films were the LaserDisc arcade game Cliff Hanger and the MSX 2 platform - adventure game Lupin III : The Castle of Cagliostro, both of which were based on The Castle of Cagliostro. Luke Plunkett describes these `` two awful adaptations '' as the reason Miyazaki does not allow further video game adaptations of his films. Other An art book titled, The Art of Nausicaä ( ジ ・ アート ・ オブ 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ, Ji āto Obu kaze no tani no naushika ) was released by Tokuma Shoten on 20 June 1984. It contains artwork during the early stages of production of the film and commentary of assistant director Kazuyoshi Katayama. Kaze no tani no Naushika Miyazaki Hayao Suisaiga - shū ( 風 の 谷 の ナウシカ 宮崎 駿 水彩画 集, literally `` Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind : Hayao Mizayaki Watercolor Art book '' ) was released by Tokuma Shoten on 5 September 1995. The art book contains artwork of the manga in watercolor, examples of storyboards for the film, autographed pictures by Hayao Miyazaki and interviews on the birth of Nausicaä. The book has been translated in English and French. Two bunkobon volumes containing the story boards were released, on 31 March 1984. In 2001, the Nausicaä storyboards were re-released, bundled into a single, larger, volume as part 1 of the Studio Ghibli Story boards collection. A selection of layout designs for the film was also incorporated in the Studio Ghibli Layout Designs exhibition tour, which started in the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo ( 28 July 2008 to 28 September 2008 ) and subsequently travelled to different museums around Japan and Asia, concluding in the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum ( 12 October 2013 to 26 January 2014 ). The exhibition catalogues contain annotated reproductions of the displayed artwork. Tokuma Shoten released a film comic, in four volumes, one each week from 20 November 1990 to 20 December 1990. A two - volume children 's version was released on 31 March 1998.
