Disney is not allowed to make any changes to any of the productions for Home Video or Theatrical release without the permission of Studio Ghibli. Disney is contractually obligated to recreate the Japanese elements in their English version. The contract is so specific that Disney must make a good will attempt to mix the dialog with the proper and different room echoes established in original versions. But we understand that these changes were made with Mr. Miyazaki's permission. So for once, the stage is set.
Anime fans have a golden opportunity.
