There are lots of subtleties and hidden messages in this movie about politics, innovation, morality and human ingenuity. Scientists and Innovators can really relate on to this animation. Wubba Lubba Dub Dub
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand The Wind Rises. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of aircraft engineering, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Jiro Horikoshi's personal outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Giovanni Battista Caproni, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike The Wind Rises truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, Caproni's dream-dialogues with Jiro, which itself is a cryptic reference to Jack Northop's classic YB-49. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Miyazaki's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 (Thx @Foxtrot Sierra)
And the word Ghibli itself comes from Arabic "in front of me" ; it's the name of a strong southwesterly wind that blows over the Medditeranean Sea, after which the aircraft was named after.
Thank you guys for these facts. Great to know. I know that Ghibli studio has a thing for wind. Knowing that it all began with the name of the studio makes more sense to me now.
"Listen to me, Japanese boy. Airplanes are not tools for war. They are not for making money. Airplanes are beautiful dreams. Engineers turn dreams into reality". I love this quote. I think it fits well with any profession connected with art. Artists do their business not for money, but for creating something that never existed. I want to become a music composer. I want to compose music for something as great as Studio Ghibli movies. For me music is "beautiful dreams", and I want to turn these dreams into reality.
Coming from a family deeply rooted in aviation and engineering since its earliest stages (of aviation), and being an aspiring engineer in mechatronics myself, this film resonated very deeply with me. I see my dad, who is in his late 60s now, sitting, bored at his desk, mulling over endless safety procedures and regulations he needs to conform designs to, and I know that more than anything else in that moment he wishes for a drafting desk and stand, pen and paper and a vision to create something beautiful. When this film came out, I took my dad to go see it. Needless to say he grumbled about it being 'for children' and that he hadn't watched cartoons in years. By the end of it he came out saying it was one of the best films he'd seen, with a tear in his eye. I believe it resonated so deeply in him, and to an extent myself because he can appreciate and understand everything Jirou goes through in the film, and he understands the wish to make a beautiful plane, all to his own design so that he might see it fly someday. I honestly think sometimes he longs for the days when such things were possible, and it doesn't take teams of hundreds of engineers just to create a single part of a new design. This movie transported him, for an all to short two hours, to that time and that place. Thanks for reading to the end anyway :)
Miyazaki really meet Caproni descendants who offered all these original plans from their engineer ancestors, like a blessing during Porco Rosso making. He never forget it to salute them in this movie!
Herpidus Derpicus They say that this is going to be his FINAL film, because he wants to make his grandson a movie before he finally passes away. (That's what I read on Wikipedia I think)
@@Tensho_C no, he was the perfect man. He came up with so many technological innovations, and for even years after the Zero was the most capable aircraft in the world. The man was a genius and an artist. He didn't use pure numbers like the yanks, brits and Germans he used heart and imagination. He was the greatest aircraft designer in history, but he never saw himself like that. He just did what he loved, but his love was turned into a weapon and was wasted
Sadly he never designed his own plane after WWII again, he worked on the YS-11 turboprop project but he spent the rest of his years in a lecture hall. Kinda sad
@@castronimussi6050 its probably because oscar is based on popularity not the quality of the music or movie Besides its an american award, have you ever seen any other movies winning an oscar other than spirited away and parasites?
This is because this was not shown to most people or kids. Ghibli fans would've seen it. Non ghibli fans were unlikely to see it. If disneys frozen and Ghiblis The Wind Rises was in theaters for the first time more people would've gone to the showing of Frozen just because of the disney animator. If the animators were reverse(disney made this movie and ghibli made frozen) This would've won oscars hands down.
This movie is my favourite Hayao Miyazaki movie. I think it´s so unique and even personal for Miyazaki. Since this movie didn´t receive as much recognition as the others movies it made me kinda sad. But this comment section for sure warms my heart :)
The ending is quite ironic. Jiro was just a little kid who dreamed to make beautiful planes then many years later he created the Mitsubishi A6M "Zero". This fighter participated to the Attack of Pearl Harbor and was the icon of the Pacific War. In the beginning of the conflict, the Zero was the pride of Japan and was considered as the best fighter of the world in 1942 with its manoeuvrabilty and long range. However after 1943, the Zero became obsolete when F6F, P51, P38 and F4U were introduced during the war. At the end of war the mighty Zero ended as symbol of despair and tragedy. Thousands were used for kamikazes attacks. Thousands of young pilots lost their lives in those Zero. How do you feel when your creation was used to start a war, killing thousands of pilots and condemned Japan to its destruction with firebombing of cites ?
I feel like im walking down an endless hallway of emptiness, this feeling of melancholy is hard to understand but pleasing in a way , a movie that leaves you with such feeling of hollowness is indeed a masterpiece
namjoon deborah Indeed. I couldn't sleep for 3 nights it felt like a punishment for living the worthless, joyless life of mine. It gave me desire to live, but not the way I was already living. I was being punished because of it
Ali Medadi "Hotaru no Haka" punishes more than this movie. I watched it first time in April and still feeling sad and empty. Life is beautiful and cruel at the same time, but dreaming is what keep people feel life is worth living. Keep dreaming.
@@retroand hotaru no haka is indeed a very sad movie. But that movie gave me a feeling that i can comprehend. I am sad and mad for everything that they need to went through at that age. However this movie left me with a feeling of emptiness. It feels so sad but i still need to walk away. Omg sorry for the long essay. I'm that emotional
I didn't cried while watching the movie, but I cried over to hear this music. We always get older, and the dream and present is sometimes violent or cruel and totally different from what we imagined. But we must live and go forward because life is not worthless. I'm a hopeless geek of Studio Ghibli and movies always give me a positive view and courage of my life.
"Who has seen the wind Neither I, nor you But when the leaves hang trembling The wind is passing through Let the wind carry these wings, Carry these wings to you"
There was a war in Japan. From the Taisho Era to the Showa Era, In 1920s Japan, People sufferd life with The Great Depression, poverty, disease and The Great Kanto earthquake. Then, Japan plunged into war. How did Japan's youth survive such a time? Friendship and respect, across time and space, for the Italian aircraft designer Caproni. The birth of the later-mythicized Zero fighter. The meeting and parting with the beautiful, ill-fated girl Nahoko. This film tell the story of Jiro Horikoshi, who lived during those turblent times. We must live. A tribute to Jiro Horikoshi and Tatsuo Hori
Seems like most people enjoyed the surface sadness of the film which Jiro's lost love. However, I hope they do pay attention to Japan's history at the time and Jiro's cursed dream. I believe that's what Miyazaki wished for when he created this deep movie.
Linh Nguyen no all I cared about was the last 50 minuets with the love stuff the rest I couldn't care about this movie was more then 2 hours it was hard for me to get sucked in alot
Maybe Jiro's doomed love was represented on the surface by his wife, and deeper down by his aeroplanes. I guess they're linked by this common theme. Both send the same message; love is fleeting, but beautiful - and ultimately doomed? (Can love by definition be 'doomed' if it exists?) I think Miyazaki was trying to send the same message home through these two plot lines.
As a translator, you often will find the true beauty of a piece of art simply by taking a closer look at its name or title. The original title "風立ちぬ" contains a very old fashioned perfective form that had been used up until WWII. Now, the quote at the beginning of the movie "風立ちぬ、いざ生きめやも" is actually a mistranslation based on some French poem. In the French poem, you could translate it as "[When/Now as] The wind is picking up, we must try to live.)) The Japanese 風立ちぬ、いざ生きめやも however means something completely different. In the context of the quote shown at the beginning of the movie, you can translate it as "[Now, as] the wind has risen, it's time, whether we are going to live or die. This might not just be a hint towards Japanese war propaganda and the attitude of the "winds of the gods" (kamikaze - Japanese air force) but it also points towards that girl with tuberculosis who knew that she is gonna die eventually. Especially, as there is also a novel named 風立ちぬ (The Wind Has Risen) written in 1937 by Hori Tatsuo featuring a man who cares for his wife as she contracted tuberculosis. (And Miyazaki said he took inspiration from that book. And Hori Tatsuo was inspired by the French poem () and he was the one who translated it) Following that logic of the Japanese original quote, you will come to the same conlusion that "you should live every day as if it would be your last, no matter what is going to happen" which is almost identical in meaning to the French poem and the English translation (The wind is rising, we must live). However, the title only features "風立ちぬ" which, if it stands on its own, can also mean "風立った" (The wind rose). This suits the ending of the movie quite well as the girl said to be like the wind has died and from the kamikaze air planes who rose up into the sky, not one single plane came back, the war is over and most importantly: Miyazaki wanted to end his career with that final film, maybe because his train/wind of creativity had faded after almost twenty years of creating beautiful animations. Maybe, that's also one of the film's messages: If you are blessed by the wind of creativity and you feel the urge to create something beautiful, as an artist or engineer - go for it, no matter what.
I cried after the first time watching this film. And never ever watched the second time cause I can't hold that emptiness. It's sad. But it more just" nothing" after u watched it. Feeling so hollow
I had to rewatch this twice within the same day of the week to reset my melancholy type like feeling on this masterpiece but after all the movie was great and emotional for viewers like you and i.
I get emotional while listening to this track and relive the whole film. What a film and ost. Hayao Mayazaki and Joe Hisaishi(composer) are really legends
I feel that it gets a summer vibe, feel like I am standing in a huge valley with wind, flower bloom everywhere, I mean I cant describe how happy I feel
As an aspiring Aerospace engineer, this film not only spoke to me on an incredibly personal level, but inspired me to keep striving to do what I love. The beauty and wonder that airplanes excite in me was a feeling that I never thought I'd see expressed on screen, but this film perfectly encapsulates those emotions, and its only made me even more in love with aviation. Thanks for the incredible film, Miyazaki.
The movie was rather not of a innovation or some sort of love content but rather its about a tragedy that each and every one of us would come within our life to face it, struggle is the key for a better success.
I'm glad Ghibli at least acknowledged the horror of war, not just as a victim, but also as an invader. Jiro is a calm man, who seems always disconnected from the world, and had the talent to make beautiful aircrafts that are made for war. The engineers knew that their products are being used for mass destruction, but did not question the morality of it. They lived a comfortable elite life style while the nation rewarded their talents. They know it but were always a little bit disconnected with the poverty in their nation and death toll of other nations. In the end Jiro is left with nothing, his planes are gone, no pilots returned, his wife is gone, and is left alone in the world but "must try to live". The war left a scar even on people who have made a living off of it. His wife might have lived if the war was not going on, if she could have received antibiotics earlier on, but the import was severely disrupted due to the war. And Jiro's career is something that definitely made international trades harder by fueling the war with weapons. Miyazaki and Suzuki Toshio made this film because they wanted to show the audience that airplanes and cars were inventions of war and that they acknowledge the pain that came with those inventions. It is thought that Miyazaki made Jiro left with nothing because he wanted to remind the world that no one can be free from their doings after participating in war. Such a beautiful masterpiece with lots of meaning in disguise.
I always want to watch this film when I feel burnt out and a bit exhausted, but still capable of doing something. This movie comes in then :) I cry every single time.
2:23 is probably the most saddest and the most beautiful scene in the movie at least for me. How Nahoko encourages Jiro to live and seeing how she flies up into the sky and never returns is just so sad but beautiful at the same time 😭❤️
This is how i got to know about these movies when my mother was little she used to watch these everyday and then she introduced them to me..! i thought they would be boring but... they were amazing!
This is one of my most favorited anime movies of all time. As other comments have mentioned there are a lot of hidden meanings and subtle messages in this movie that delve into politics, innovation, morality, human ingenuity, and etc. But the one thing that stood out to me the most is the line " the wind rises, we must try to live". This line alone for me encapsulates the core message that permeates throughout the movie. You have this dream, but the wind rises, meaning change is coming, unexpected ventures that will challenge you deeply. Yet we still must try to live, meaning we have to find our way around it and fulfill our dreams how we can. Maybe we won’t be capable to get what we wanted exactly the way we did, and maybe reality is so harsh we might not be able to get much. But we must try to live because it’s the only way to be happy. Try to live, the world is more real and beautiful than what you would first think of it. Life is about hope, sadness, reality, and dreams. So whatever makes you happy, live the way you want, that’s what you have to do when change comes. Your dream is your goal, try to live the path you choose to walk. God, I love this movie. This and Princess Mononoke are definitely my favorite Studio Ghibli movies.
Here I am, years after hearing this for the first time, excited about my soon approaching freshman year of collage. Now, as I work countless hours through aerospace engineering curriculum, in the midst of the most difficult project I've ever seen, I can still say with absolute certainty that it is still worth it. Indeed, the wind is still rising for me.
For along time i strayed away from this movie as the trailers never showed me anything that I thought would be interesting. However, today I said screw it and probably just watched one of my new favorite movies of all time. Everything about reeks of pure artistic beauty and as an Italian it was nice too see my people's similar aspirations along with the Japanese aspirations for flight. Si alza il vento.
I just watched this, and it became my favourite ghibli movie topping my favourite Castle in the Sky. For some people, they might not like the first hour about inspiration and only focus on the love, but for me, I loved the whole 2 hours. I am learning programming and seeing his focus and dedication towards aviations made me feel the inspiration. And as someone who just broke up after a 5 year relationship, the ideal and pure love story of them , flutters my heart. Perfect movie.
Muhammad Rheno Bhaskoro Nahoko (?) goes back to the sanatorium without saying anything to anyone and sadly,she dies there:( Jiro never got to see her again
This movie, together with Porco Rosso, really brings tears to my eyes. Both are so romantic yet tragic. I can't stand the moment the lady goes away and the plane takes off into the air.
If you really want to get hit hard more than this film would actually do i suggest you watch Your name along with the silent voice but overall the work of the ghilbi studio are a masterpiece.
@@Gegit3784 Thanks, I have watched both of the animes you recommended. They are apparently awesome. However, I still prefer the Ghibli's as the reality within the fantasy. Somehow it makes me see the real world and somehow it gives me hope.
Came across this movie a year after it was released and it was actually the year I got into anime but only watched it today. And I got this urge to make aircraft because of how beautifully it was brought. Today I want to create airplanes, yesterday I wanted to make songs, the day before I wanted to build a cafe, my dream constantly changes. But this movie reminded me that it is the motivation to create that keeps one going. It's not about the direction that the wind blows in, but the fact that it keeps on rising. As long as I get reminded of this not only will I keep on trying to live, but also be thankful for each passing day and each burst of inspiration I get. Thank you Ghibli.
Always loved how Caproni said "Japanese boy". It sounds insulting, particularly the first time he says it but throughout the course of the film you can hear how it becomes a term of endearment towards Jiro.
POV: you randomly got this video and had all of the memories of watching this way back in 2013-2014 gushing back like the great flood. Man if there is an animated movie that I'd recommend, laputa castle in the sky and the wind rises would be my top 2. These two hit harder than a million isekai trucks
what also I learned bout this movie is when you choose a specific career in life, choose what mind suggests and what the heart desires, balance both cuz if both don't work together our dream will be completely miserable. This movie gives us lessons in life, Its a masterpiece created by Hayao Miyazaki💕 pls come back and make more if possible, I owe you mahh life
I find myself whistling this theme all throughout the day 3-4 year after watching the music. I enjoy a wide repetoire of music from 2pac, Cantonese, Taiwanese, classical, indie rock , 80's rock , 90's pop, etc. This song has remained stuck in my brain in some of the deepest strums. Weird but awesome!
Hold on...this is based on a true story?! Oh, come on! Discovering that Grave of the Fireflies was a true story was already heartbreaking enough, but this too?!
Noctis Lucis Caelum Jiro Horikoshi was really a Japanese WWII aircraft engineer that designed the most successful aircraft at the time, which was the Zero fighter as depicted in the movie. His wife didn't die of tuberculosis though. Just look up Jiro Horikoshi, he even has the cute glasses.
i have no idea what it exactly was, but something in this movie got me so early in it, that im still fascinated by its beauty and music and those lovely characters. Im so thankful for this piece of art.
The real poem in french is super long, like le vent se lève il faut tenter de vivre is just 2 vers from like 5, in there valery denounces the war and brings up the fact that even after all the madness of war we should still continue living ;)
i like deep, gentle music like this. It makes me more comfortable and relaxed. Whenever i can't sleep, i turn on anime music without lyrics. It makes me forget stress and have goodnight's sleep
The greatest and most saddest movie of Hiyao miazaki. This should have won the Oscar but no, they have to give it to the stupid frozen. This is a masterpiece. Frozen can't come even close to this. What a sad ending. Should have give Miyazaki sensei one last time an Oscar. When i watch a Gibli movie, i always think that humanity still has some hope left..his movies shall live forever.
I remember this beautiful piece of music was stuck in my brain the day my grandma passed, when i was having flashbacks to my childhood with her and how much caring and loving she was! Listening to it now, almost 3 weeks later brings me such a sweet feeling and reminds me that just as long as this music exists my memories of her won't ever fade away
I got inspired by this film. i used to dream about being a pilot but that seem to be impossible because of my bad eyesight so i decided to abandoned that dream but after a while i was introduced to this beautiful movie which make my dream come true... well not really. Im planning to become an aircraft engineer. Its beautiful and weird to be inspired by a film but still after i watched this film i got the motive to be an aircraft engineer. Well the lesson is to never give up. Goodbye. -A person
The Wind Rises is the best ghibli film I ever watch. It makes me cry a lots. I still watch it more than three times but I don't boring. The love of Naoko and Jiro is ......... Don't have any words can describe their love and my feel about it. Love Naoko and Jiro!!!!
@@rhenoskoro1671 She was died in this movie, due to tuberculosis which at the time is considered as a irrecoverable disease. In fact, Jiro's wife in real life didn't die like in this movie. She died decades after WW2 of old age
I watched this movie a few times and I cried so much at the end. Such a sad but beautiful ending. I also realized that the meaning of “the wind rises” is a storm. Wind blows up during storms aka WWII and they have to live on and survive the war. I love this movie so much and the music is fantastic!
what I love about this soundtrack are the small fragments of melodies from the previous movies, I hear some howl's moving castle and some spirited away. it's like a nostalgia blast from the past adventures with Miyazaki and Hisaishi.
This soundtrack gives me inspiration, so many ideas. Every note makes me think of the past within every memory, it truly makes me cry. I just want to be free while listening to this.This soundtrack really is beautiful. It feels like a lot more than what I said, and again, looking at the past lisening to this soundtrack makes me cry. And it's simply been 12 years in my life. The composer of this song did a phenomenal job. I gave all the credit in the world to him/her.
it really has deep meaning you never realized yet. if airplanes are dreams, nahoko's airplane was jiro. while she was sick and dying, she really tried her best to build that airplane which was jiro. the day she left, she knew she successfully built that plane and ready to be flown away jiro said none of his planes came back, same can really be said for nahoko, she will never meet the airplane again which was jiro 😭😭

Never underestimate the power of Miyazaki's animations.
The ending where he walks off with Caproni in his dream is a very subtle ending to Hayao Miyazaki's career.
Miyazaki really meet Caproni descendants who offered all these original plans from their engineer ancestors, like a blessing during Porco Rosso making. He never forget it to salute them in this movie!
Miyazaki career is never done until his ashes is spread over the sky of Japan.
Didn't he just release a new film though?

Alec Fernandez wait then would that mean he destroyed setsukos village or something o don't know
Mark Casadevall Yes from a certain point of view......
Jiro Horikoshi just fulfilled his duty to meet severe demands of Naval Airtechnical Arsenal of Japan and created Mitsubishi Zero.
Alec Fernandez it’s really sad

What do you think, Japanese boy? Is the wind still rising? #crying
In our kingdom of dreams, yes
In our kingdom of dreams, yes
Our dreams are the fields of invention. The wind is rising and you must fly.
omg im crying
“Nippon shounen” love that phrase
I CRIED SO MUCH at this film... And I'm crying now listening to this
+stuckinthefanzone
Yeah, I almost did too! It was pretty sad!
+Chompster Animated Same here.
same :c
same ;____;
same :'v
I feel like im walking down an endless hallway of emptiness, this feeling of melancholy is hard to understand but pleasing in a way , a movie that leaves you with such feeling of hollowness is indeed a masterpiece
namjoon deborah Indeed.
I couldn't sleep for 3 nights
it felt like a punishment for living the worthless, joyless life of mine.
It gave me desire to live, but not the way I was already living. I was being punished because of it
Ali Medadi "Hotaru no Haka" punishes more than this movie. I watched it first time in April and still feeling sad and empty. Life is beautiful and cruel at the same time, but dreaming is what keep people feel life is worth living. Keep dreaming.
Jirou never stopped living. He saw tragedies and he lived on, despite the sadness. I find that gives me hope
@@retroand hotaru no haka is indeed a very sad movie. But that movie gave me a feeling that i can comprehend. I am sad and mad for everything that they need to went through at that age. However this movie left me with a feeling of emptiness. It feels so sad but i still need to walk away. Omg sorry for the long essay. I'm that emotional
Ugh, why can't we have more films with this kind of tone and atmosphere. Thank god for studio ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki.

i did not expect this movie to be this beautiful, truly wonderful.
I didn't cried while watching the movie, but I cried over to hear this music. We always get older, and the dream and present is sometimes violent or cruel and totally different from what we imagined. But we must live and go forward because life is not worthless. I'm a hopeless geek of Studio Ghibli and movies always give me a positive view and courage of my life.
Yeah because the wind is rising , you must try to live ^^

"Who has seen the wind
Neither I, nor you
But when the leaves hang trembling
The wind is passing through
Let the wind carry these wings,
Carry these wings to you"
this is my favorite quote in the movie
There was a war in Japan.
From the Taisho Era to the Showa Era,
In 1920s Japan,
People sufferd life with The Great Depression,
poverty, disease and The Great Kanto earthquake.
Then, Japan plunged into war.
How did Japan's youth survive such a time?
Friendship and respect, across time and space,
for the Italian aircraft designer Caproni.
The birth of the later-mythicized Zero fighter.
The meeting and parting with
the beautiful, ill-fated girl Nahoko.
This film tell the story of Jiro Horikoshi,
who lived during those turblent times.
We must live.
A tribute to
Jiro Horikoshi
and Tatsuo Hori
Seems like most people enjoyed the surface sadness of the film which Jiro's lost love. However, I hope they do pay attention to Japan's history at the time and Jiro's cursed dream. I believe that's what Miyazaki wished for when he created this deep movie.
ajdeem90 if it makes you happy, in real life his wife didn't die ;)
Linh Nguyen It's in the top 100 WWII movies of all time!
Marimar 3788 because she isn't real he is but she ain't
Linh Nguyen no all I cared about was the last 50 minuets with the love stuff the rest I couldn't care about this movie was more then 2 hours it was hard for me to get sucked in alot
Maybe Jiro's doomed love was represented on the surface by his wife, and deeper down by his aeroplanes. I guess they're linked by this common theme. Both send the same message; love is fleeting, but beautiful - and ultimately doomed? (Can love by definition be 'doomed' if it exists?) I think Miyazaki was trying to send the same message home through these two plot lines.
Miyazaki: artist career last for only a decade
Also Miyazaki: guess who's back from retirement!
As a translator, you often will find the true beauty of a piece of art simply by taking a closer look at its name or title.
The original title "風立ちぬ" contains a very old fashioned perfective form that had been used up until WWII. Now, the quote at the beginning of the movie "風立ちぬ、いざ生きめやも" is actually a mistranslation based on some French poem. In the French poem, you could translate it as "[When/Now as] The wind is picking up, we must try to live.))
The Japanese 風立ちぬ、いざ生きめやも however means something completely different. In the context of the quote shown at the beginning of the movie, you can translate it as "[Now, as] the wind has risen, it's time, whether we are going to live or die.
This might not just be a hint towards Japanese war propaganda and the attitude of the "winds of the gods" (kamikaze - Japanese air force) but it also points towards that girl with tuberculosis who knew that she is gonna die eventually. Especially, as there is also a novel named 風立ちぬ (The Wind Has Risen) written in 1937 by Hori Tatsuo featuring a man who cares for his wife as she contracted tuberculosis. (And Miyazaki said he took inspiration from that book. And Hori Tatsuo was inspired by the French poem () and he was the one who translated it)
Following that logic of the Japanese original quote, you will come to the same conlusion that "you should live every day as if it would be your last, no matter what is going to happen" which is almost identical in meaning to the French poem and the English translation (The wind is rising, we must live).
However, the title only features "風立ちぬ" which, if it stands on its own, can also mean "風立った" (The wind rose).
This suits the ending of the movie quite well as the girl said to be like the wind has died and from the kamikaze air planes who rose up into the sky, not one single plane came back, the war is over and most importantly: Miyazaki wanted to end his career with that final film, maybe because his train/wind of creativity had faded after almost twenty years of creating beautiful animations.
Maybe, that's also one of the film's messages:
If you are blessed by the wind of creativity and you feel the urge to create something beautiful, as an artist or engineer - go for it, no matter what.
Thank you for this❤️
Magnifique commentaire, merci ! 🙏
This was a delight to read
Thank you for this comment. Wish you the best :)
“Aeroplanes are beautiful cursed dreams, waiting for the sky to swallow them.”

@@anotheryoutubeuser what does that mean.
I cried after the first time watching this film. And never ever watched the second time cause I can't hold that emptiness. It's sad. But it more just" nothing" after u watched it. Feeling so hollow
I had to rewatch this twice within the same day of the week to reset my melancholy type like feeling on this masterpiece but after all the movie was great and emotional for viewers like you and i.
I NEED TO WATCH THIS AGAIN :'I
私が最初に見た時、1930年代に生きる人々は生きる事が戦いで有ったことを知りましたが、それほど感動はしませんでした。
数年後、私は愛する妻を病で亡くしました。そして私は再びこの映画を見ました。涙が溢れて仕方がありませんでした。
「私達には時間が有りません」この言葉はまさに私と妻の為に有るような言葉でした。
I get emotional while listening to this track and relive the whole film. What a film and ost. Hayao Mayazaki and Joe Hisaishi(composer) are really legends
one day when i have children of my own , i’ll show them every ghibli movie that i watched growing up and teach them to always love yourself
I feel that it gets a summer vibe, feel like I am standing in a huge valley with wind, flower bloom everywhere, I mean I cant describe how happy I feel
Just like "the wind rises"
As an aspiring Aerospace engineer, this film not only spoke to me on an incredibly personal level, but inspired me to keep striving to do what I love. The beauty and wonder that airplanes excite in me was a feeling that I never thought I'd see expressed on screen, but this film perfectly encapsulates those emotions, and its only made me even more in love with aviation.
Thanks for the incredible film, Miyazaki.
The movie was rather not of a innovation or some sort of love content but rather its about a tragedy that each and every one of us would come within our life to face it, struggle is the key for a better success.
This is my favourite Hayao Miyazaki movie. And every time I listen to it I'm left misty eyed. :')
+Joydeep Hazarika, I agree! I felt the same for the whole week after I've watched it.
Joydeep Hazarika castle in the sky, monopole then this one but this is the saddest to me
I'm glad Ghibli at least acknowledged the horror of war, not just as a victim, but also as an invader. Jiro is a calm man, who seems always disconnected from the world, and had the talent to make beautiful aircrafts that are made for war.
The engineers knew that their products are being used for mass destruction, but did not question the morality of it. They lived a comfortable elite life style while the nation rewarded their talents. They know it but were always a little bit disconnected with the poverty in their nation and death toll of other nations.
In the end Jiro is left with nothing, his planes are gone, no pilots returned, his wife is gone, and is left alone in the world but "must try to live". The war left a scar even on people who have made a living off of it. His wife might have lived if the war was not going on, if she could have received antibiotics earlier on, but the import was severely disrupted due to the war. And Jiro's career is something that definitely made international trades harder by fueling the war with weapons.
Miyazaki and Suzuki Toshio made this film because they wanted to show the audience that airplanes and cars were inventions of war and that they acknowledge the pain that came with those inventions. It is thought that Miyazaki made Jiro left with nothing because he wanted to remind the world that no one can be free from their doings after participating in war. Such a beautiful masterpiece with lots of meaning in disguise.
Thank you for your beautiful and insightful comment. 🙏
Invader😂😂😂 that's rich
I always want to watch this film when I feel burnt out and a bit exhausted, but still capable of doing something. This movie comes in then :) I cry every single time.
This song has been stuck in my head and always brings me to tears for some reason... I love studio ghibli films...
This song gets to me every time and I don't know why.
Every time the trailer would show at the theater it gave me chills.
I love this movie
2:23 is probably the most saddest and the most beautiful scene in the movie at least for me. How Nahoko encourages Jiro to live and seeing how she flies up into the sky and never returns is just so sad but beautiful at the same time 😭❤️
This is how i got to know about these movies when my mother was little she used to watch these everyday and then she introduced them to me..! i thought they would be boring but...
they were amazing!
Still my favorite movie of all time
japanese boy
Shawn Shackelford kaguya tops this though
@bomapdich YOU TAKE THAT BACK
Princess Kaguya was really good, yeah. I actually don't know which one I like more, both are in my top favorite Ghibli movies.
Man, what a masterpiece this movie was. I got choked up multiple times, and I'm not really a crier. Thinking about it now makes me so sad...
The ending never hit me so hard like this before in my entire life.
It did hit me for a week until i got over it within like 2 weeks or so, truly a masterpiece.
I hear howls moving castle in this and spirited away, I love how he samples a few tunes from his previous works.
This is one of my most favorited anime movies of all time. As other comments have mentioned there are a lot of hidden meanings and subtle messages in this movie that delve into politics, innovation, morality, human ingenuity, and etc.
But the one thing that stood out to me the most is the line " the wind rises, we must try to live". This line alone for me encapsulates the core message that permeates throughout the movie. You have this dream, but the wind rises, meaning change is coming, unexpected ventures that will challenge you deeply.
Yet we still must try to live, meaning we have to find our way around it and fulfill our dreams how we can. Maybe we won’t be capable to get what we wanted exactly the way we did, and maybe reality is so harsh we might not be able to get much. But we must try to live because it’s the only way to be happy. Try to live, the world is more real and beautiful than what you would first think of it.
Life is about hope, sadness, reality, and dreams. So whatever makes you happy, live the way you want, that’s what you have to do when change comes. Your dream is your goal, try to live the path you choose to walk. God, I love this movie. This and Princess Mononoke are definitely my favorite Studio Ghibli movies.
Here I am, years after hearing this for the first time, excited about my soon approaching freshman year of collage. Now, as I work countless hours through aerospace engineering curriculum, in the midst of the most difficult project I've ever seen, I can still say with absolute certainty that it is still worth it.
Indeed, the wind is still rising for me.
This music makes me sad and happy in the same time. It bring me walk down the prairie in the rain.
Isn't it amazing?
How a song with no lyrics can tell a story.
...No words can really describe this...
Quite a nice song.....?
You could try dancing to this masterpiece!
Quite right.
but number can 10/10
The way the ending of the movie was a mix of sad and happy left me crying and at the same time kinda proud🥹
For along time i strayed away from this movie as the trailers never showed me anything that I thought would be interesting. However, today I said screw it and probably just watched one of my new favorite movies of all time. Everything about reeks of pure artistic beauty and as an Italian it was nice too see my people's similar aspirations along with the Japanese aspirations for flight.
Si alza il vento.
OMG I can't stop palying it again and again when it ends it feels so empty.
Life is harsh, there will always be a sudden gust of wind trying to knock you over. You must always try to overcome it...
I just watched this, and it became my favourite ghibli movie topping my favourite Castle in the Sky. For some people, they might not like the first hour about inspiration and only focus on the love, but for me, I loved the whole 2 hours. I am learning programming and seeing his focus and dedication towards aviations made me feel the inspiration. And as someone who just broke up after a 5 year relationship, the ideal and pure love story of them , flutters my heart. Perfect movie.
It's my favorite to. This movie is just a masterpiece.
*When studio ghibli making a drama, it smashing my cold heart, then i think its okay to cry even for hard men sometimes*
I still didn't expect such a sad ending.
Agreed
Same, i really cry with this movie, lmao i cry with almost every studio ghibli movie 🤣💖
What happen , i need spoiler , please
Muhammad Rheno Bhaskoro Nahoko (?) goes back to the sanatorium without saying anything to anyone and sadly,she dies there:( Jiro never got to see her again
Me too.. :((
This movie, together with Porco Rosso, really brings tears to my eyes. Both are so romantic yet tragic. I can't stand the moment the lady goes away and the plane takes off into the air.
If you really want to get hit hard more than this film would actually do i suggest you watch Your name along with the silent voice but overall the work of the ghilbi studio are a masterpiece.
@@Gegit3784 Thanks, I have watched both of the animes you recommended. They are apparently awesome. However, I still prefer the Ghibli's as the reality within the fantasy. Somehow it makes me see the real world and somehow it gives me hope.
@@convit92This was 4 years ago but I absolutely agree

El viento se levanta ¡Hay que intentar vivir!
the wind rises, and we have to live
Souka bliatz ! Souka souka bliaaatz
Came across this movie a year after it was released and it was actually the year I got into anime but only watched it today. And I got this urge to make aircraft because of how beautifully it was brought. Today I want to create airplanes, yesterday I wanted to make songs, the day before I wanted to build a cafe, my dream constantly changes. But this movie reminded me that it is the motivation to create that keeps one going. It's not about the direction that the wind blows in, but the fact that it keeps on rising. As long as I get reminded of this not only will I keep on trying to live, but also be thankful for each passing day and each burst of inspiration I get. Thank you Ghibli.
Always loved how Caproni said "Japanese boy". It sounds insulting, particularly the first time he says it but throughout the course of the film you can hear how it becomes a term of endearment towards Jiro.
POV: you randomly got this video and had all of the memories of watching this way back in 2013-2014 gushing back like the great flood.
Man if there is an animated movie that I'd recommend, laputa castle in the sky and the wind rises would be my top 2. These two hit harder than a million isekai trucks
what also I learned bout this movie is when you choose a specific career in life, choose what mind suggests and what the heart desires, balance both cuz if both don't work together our dream will be completely miserable. This movie gives us lessons in life, Its a masterpiece created by Hayao Miyazaki💕 pls come back and make more if possible, I owe you mahh life
風景が音楽を通して伝わってくる。これは凄いことだと思う。
I find myself whistling this theme all throughout the day 3-4 year after watching the music. I enjoy a wide repetoire of music from 2pac, Cantonese, Taiwanese, classical, indie rock , 80's rock , 90's pop, etc. This song has remained stuck in my brain in some of the deepest strums. Weird but awesome!
Who knew a true story could make me cry like a bitch at an anime..
Yes your profile pic explains that very well
funny cus all the sad bits weren't actually part of the true story ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Rue - Like....The True story was still kinda sad.....But yeah you're correct
Hold on...this is based on a true story?!
Oh, come on! Discovering that Grave of the Fireflies was a true story was already heartbreaking enough, but this too?!
Noctis Lucis Caelum Jiro Horikoshi was really a Japanese WWII aircraft engineer that designed the most successful aircraft at the time, which was the Zero fighter as depicted in the movie. His wife didn't die of tuberculosis though. Just look up Jiro Horikoshi, he even has the cute glasses.
So glad Joe Hisaishi is back for Ni No Kuni II! Beautiful music.
This song is beautiful and depressing both at the same time.
yeah
どうやったらこんな素敵なメロディ作れるんだろう。儚くも素晴らしいですね。
My favorite Studio Ghibli film of all time, it doesn't get any better than this in my opinion.
i have no idea what it exactly was, but something in this movie got me so early in it, that im still fascinated by its beauty and music and those lovely characters. Im so thankful for this piece of art.
The real poem in french is super long, like le vent se lève il faut tenter de vivre is just 2 vers from like 5, in there valery denounces the war and brings up the fact that even after all the madness of war we should still continue living ;)
I guess you're French by the way that you put words together ^_^
I agree, the poem is super long
yup

The greatest and most saddest movie of Hiyao miazaki. This should have won the Oscar but no, they have to give it to the stupid frozen. This is a masterpiece. Frozen can't come even close to this. What a sad ending. Should have give Miyazaki sensei one last time an Oscar. When i watch a Gibli movie, i always think that humanity still has some hope left..his movies shall live forever.

I got inspired by this film. i used to dream about being a pilot but that seem to be impossible because of my bad eyesight so i decided to abandoned that dream but after a while i was introduced to this beautiful movie which make my dream come true... well not really. Im planning to become an aircraft engineer. Its beautiful and weird to be inspired by a film but still after i watched this film i got the motive to be an aircraft engineer. Well the lesson is to never give up. Goodbye.

なんだろう
大正、昭和初期の日本ってなんか良いよね
I watched this movie a few times and I cried so much at the end. Such a sad but beautiful ending. I also realized that the meaning of “the wind rises” is a storm. Wind blows up during storms aka WWII and they have to live on and survive the war. I love this movie so much and the music is fantastic!
how can a movie be so beautiful yet so ever crushing my favorite ghibli movie
what I love about this soundtrack are the small fragments of melodies from the previous movies, I hear some howl's moving castle and some spirited away. it's like a nostalgia blast from the past adventures with Miyazaki and Hisaishi.
This soundtrack gives me inspiration, so many ideas. Every note makes me think of the past within every memory, it truly makes me cry. I just want to be free while listening to this.This soundtrack really is beautiful. It feels like a lot more than what I said, and again, looking at the past lisening to this soundtrack makes me cry. And it's simply been 12 years in my life. The composer of this song did a phenomenal job. I gave all the credit in the world to him/her.
it really has deep meaning you never realized yet. if airplanes are dreams, nahoko's airplane was jiro. while she was sick and dying, she really tried her best to build that airplane which was jiro. the day she left, she knew she successfully built that plane and ready to be flown away
jiro said none of his planes came back, same can really be said for nahoko, she will never meet the airplane again which was jiro 😭😭
If you've watched this movie,
you will cry hearing this song
