Nausicaa notices a single passenger of the ship before it meets a disastrous fate. One night a huge airship flies through the valley towards a rival kingdom. Among the after effects are massive bugs that look like massive armadillos. A thousand years before there was an apocalyptic war that ravaged so much.

Nausicaä ( Drag Me to Hell‘s Alison Lohman), the princess of the Valley of the Wind flies around her kingdom as she tries to deal with the balance between humans and animals along with fertile jungle and toxic wasteland. Nausicaa Of the Valley of the Wind gives viewers the full experience that the audience in Tokyo saw. It was not a satisfying moment of Miyazaki which let to him demanding this film were never butchered to appease international markets. The distributor renamed it Warriors of the Wind, sliced away 22 minutes and rearranged things to alter the plot and attitudes of characters. Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind was released in Japan back in 1984 and arrived in the USA a year later thanks to New World Pictures. But the American audience didn’t get to truly experience his film since a lot was lost in translation and the splicer. Turns out director Hayao Miyazaki had an earlier impact in the United States than the release of Princess Mononoke in 1999.
