Studio Ghibli has created beautiful films like Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, etc. But, can Studio Ghibli do the same when it comes to CG anime?

NHK posted a PV for Studio Ghibli’s first CG anime film, Earwig & the Witch. It will be aired on NHK General on Dec 30.

The video shows Earwig’s mischief while staying in the orphanage, & one day she gets adopted by a strange couple.

Studio Ghibli has always used traditional hand-drawn frames, neglecting graphics. With this film, Studio Ghibli will tackle computer-generated art.

The cast & staff for the film will include Gorō Miyazaki, Katsuya Kondo, Kokoro Hirasawa, & more.
