The museum is built around the study of Hayao Miyazaki, one of the founders of the studies and creator of the mythical animated character Totoro. The main hall is an imitation to The Yubaba Bath House, from the movie Chihiro's trip. Everywhere there are small doors through which only children can access and the characters of Studio Ghibli exposed in stained glass.
The part of the museum that is permanent, are exhibitions in which the sketches used to give life to animated films, the tools and techniques needed to create authentic jewelry of cinema are shown. For any cynphyl and animation cinema geek, this should be enough to make an express trip to Japan, but in case you are not convinced, there are even more.
One of the attractions that has the most claims is the Saturn cinema, a small room in which there are a total of 80 people, in which they reproduce unique short films created by Miyazaki by and for the museum. These shorts cannot be seen anywhere, only in that room, which every month projects a different short. To ensure its exclusivity, the use of mobile phones within the room is totally prohibited.
