Right now Studio Ghibli is most popular and known all round the world Japanese animation film studio. It was founded in 1985 by the directors Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata and the producer Toshio Suzuki, after great success of Hayao Miyazaki's Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind from 1984, produced by Toei Animation (Dragon Ball, Clannad the movie). Most of studio Ghibli's movies are films directed by Hayao Miyazaki with Spirited Away which has won in 2002 an Oscar for Best Animated Feature and it remains the only anime film to have done so. Many films from Ghibli studio have on the Animage Anime Grand Prix award. In October 2001, the Ghibli Museum opened in Tokyo. There are many exhibits based on Studio Ghibli films and shows animations, including an number of short Studio Ghibli films not available anywhere else. The mascot and lodo of studio is Totoro, the forest spirit, main character in My Neighbour Totoro from 1988. All the films have got music composed by Joe Hisaishi (personally I think the best are OSTs to Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle).
