The history of the film began with the fact that from 1982 to 1994 Hayao Miyazaki released a manga Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. Miyazaki drew it mostly with a simple pencil, and it was printed in monochrome, in shades of brown.

After the success of the Nausicaa manga, Tokuma Shoten founder Yasuyoshi Tokuma encouraged Miyazaki to pursue an anime adaptation of his work. Miyazaki initially turned it down, but later agreed on the condition that he would direct the film. Miyazaki was deeply affected by the pollution of Minamata Bay - it served as the basis for creating a polluted world in Nausicaa.

In 1983, Hisaishi Hayao Miyazaki was recommended by Isao Takahata to write an accompanying album for the Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind manga. Miyazaki liked the work of the young musician so much that he invited him to write the music for the film Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. Work on Nausicaa made Hisaishi famous. In gratitude, he worked on all of Miyazaki's subsequent films.

Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind was released on March 11, 1984. The film grossed 1.48 billion yen at the box office, with an additional 742 million yen on sales.[70] The film became one of the main works in the work of Hayao Miyazaki and significantly strengthened his fame as an animator.
