It takes a lot of work to recreate the architecture from an anime series, but it takes a freakin’ SHIT TON of work to recreate worlds from several Miyazaki films!

Did you know the site has over 2,500 video game themed lolz? 
Wow….. just wow.

I remember when I was a young lad and my brother and I would stay up all saturday nights to watch Miyazakis films, so this means a lot to me… *snigh* Give me a second… *snigh*
I am a bit remiss as well since Princess Mononoke and Grave of the Fireflies are missing… Though I suppose bloody battles and children deaths would not have fit with these more happy films :o (though that doesn't make this any less amazing).
It's clips like these that make me wish i had the time to do something like this. Or least the motivation…
Soldier: Now THAT is what I wanna see!
I don't watch any anime, but…
I hope this was more than one person. The amount of time it would take a single person to do all this is probably longer than how long Minecraft has been out.
This…..cannot be described with words! Such detail! The Moving Castle…The Castle In The Sky…and the Bathhouse from Spirited Away! I was moved to…*sniff*….tears it was so beautifal. Congrats to whoever made this work of Minecraft art.
If someone did this alone,they must be FOREVER ALONE
If Heaven exists as I hope it does. This is what it would look like.
Where did he get all the reference material for it!? This would have Miyazaki himself going "Daaaayum, why didn't I think of that?"
I liked the cow at 1:30. It was great.
Motivation? I'll get the chainsaw!
*prostrates to Ozworkshop* I am not worthy! I am not worthy!
Am I supposed to make some sort of reference/joke about this?
Because I don't know about you guys, but this is too beautiful to corru-
ssssssssssSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
inb4wittyjoke
For a damn good reason.
this times 9001 and you will get what I feel for this video.
I'm guessing the creeper is No Face then?
Truer Applause was never made
I made an account only to comment on this masterpiece. Words cannot describe it.
Also to express my regret that they didn't get around to Nausicaa.
mfw
I have a feeling it could ahve been someone with a minecraft mapper that made these. meaning he didnt do it by hand…but i dont know.
Susan, get me my Die and Go to Heaven pants.

This is a question for Shawn. Why can't we have nice things?
With Grave of the Fireflies I'm sure you could remake the cave and then proceed to die from malnutrition.
Also yay for including Porco Rosso.
Then THEY show up, the horde, their phallic faces showing no emotion whatsoever, these devil spawn seemingly immune to guilt or fear charge straight at you ruining the structure of this majesty, and just when you think the unthinkable, they're slowing down, clouds suddenly darken the sky, making your once beautiful world seemingly cry in pain, but it's symbolism is immediately broken by thunder cracks, the loud echoing booms are now foreshadowing what is to become of this once utopian city. The lightning strikes a few yards away, it hits one of the causes of this disaster. At first you think it will at least take one out, so your kingdom could claim to have resisted the onslaught, even if it was fruitless, then you look again, to your horror the phallic monster has seemingly absorbed the power the Greeks believed was held by Zeus, he has become a god. He approaches you and you know their is no bother trying to run, the last thing you hear is the sound of a serpent approaching its next meal…
…anyways, nice job with the city and all that
If game and art had a child, it would look like this.
Only because no one else is good enough.
"If building will result in victory than you must BUILD!
Tsun Zu said that, and I think he knows a bit more about Minecrafting that YOU do, pal, 'cause he invented it!"
So Tsun Zu is Notch… fascinating…
The future addition of maps has people thinking about uses for Books. Some hope it will eventually be possible to write books in Minecraft eventually….
I can't wait to see "The Art of Minecrafting"
When you can unconsciously recognize something, they did the job damn well. Immediately noticed the different locations from Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away and Totoro (spelled it wrong…I think) just to name a few.
Give this man the Platinum Pickaxe Award, he deserves it C:
I feel like I should make a comic or something, like a creeper comes across it and turns away, for it is too beautiful to destroy, or vice versa.
I think I know which one "Castle in the Sky" is.
Almost one-hundred percent sure.
Fucking Beautiful. Just fucking beautiful.
Finished watching Howl's Moving Castle.
Open Halolz.

words cannot describe how amazing the world made by oz workshop.
"Care package ready, show us where you want it"
C'MON PEOPLE! WHERE ARE YOUR THUMBS?!
*clickclickclickclickclick*
*runs up to Creeper*
oh no you FUCKING DONT!
*uber-punch*
I don't even know what any of the actual films and stuff were…
I feel so worthless…
Looking at the video again, it looks like Oz Workshop is a group.
Howls moving castle…
Y U NO MOVE?!
Ghibli World: Finished
Minecraft Population: 1
i hope shawn does more minecraft stuff cuz this is so awsome this guy probobly did it alone,musta took a year or 3 months
Difficulty: Peaceful
It's okay man. There's a LOT of cool shit to go around. It's a BIG planet we dwell on. I'm compelled to watch more Miyazaki films now to make my summer (which began yesterday) SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME. I've only seen Ponyo, My Neighbor Totoro (that movie is my all time favorite), and Spirited Away. I want to see more now because of the epic scenery I just laid my eyes upon.
Also, for those of you that don't know, Totoro is featured in Toy Story 3. I nearly crapped myself when I saw him. I'm like:
(O_O) "Dude, is that who I think it is?"
My Buddy: "Who?"
Me:"Totoro"
Both of us:"HOLY SH***!!!"
Ah…
Vice versa? What do you mean? A building comes by a creeper, but the creeper is so beutiful the building turns away?
…because Shawn worships Courage Kratos and not the Church of the Falcon.
Wha-what is this strange sensation in my chest? …I…I think my heart is beating again… Oh, thank you! thank you OZ WORKSHOP!
For porco rosso couldn't you have stuffed a pig in the plane?
good thing i searched for someone to say this before i posted it
you have to be VERY SPECIFIC HughbertEsq when you tell someone to give someone OTHER than yourself thumbs up. (Learned that one the hard way.) For your sake I'll say this, people he meant me, so no giving him thumbs down, okay
No words… can't describe it… they should have sent a poet…
Thanks mate, when I saw this and its undeserving LACK of thumbs I had to rally the people around…
Gentlemen…
We have discovered not only the Ultimate in Eye-Bleach, but one of the few reliable means of achieving total and insoluble Peace and Harmony through the work of a video-game.
Our work is over, for now…
thanks for the effort, but don't try to force people to +1 anyone else, it's just too hard to not sound like your begging for yourself to get 'em
Does anyone have a link to the full version of the music that starts around 1:14? I know what movie it's from but I can't find the music.
Because Calcifer died.
UMAD?
"A thing of beauty is a joy for- SSSSSSSSSSSsssssssssss."
And that is why creepers suck and this rules
So did marble
UMAD?
We all mad at that.
I know it is completely beside the point of the video but… 2:05 *Ahem* And on some clear nights, young trainer, you can see a few of the legendary Sky Wailords searching endlessly for their lost love known to us as 'Skitty', and they will continue searching till the end of time…
OZWORKSHOP is my god…
I'm now very sad because the site for downloading this map…is in Korean TT__TT http://blog.naver.com/nolera/70108297219
Yeah, now that I look at it, it does sounds tremendously redonkulous….I meant more that the creeper can't help himself and is forced to destroy it, because it's so beautiful. Sort of like when the pyro sees an anthro-con and gets teary eyed.
Miyazaki probably couldn't even do this himself.
