Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Vol. 1

Manga post apocalíptico de Hayao Miyazaki, si si, EL afamado Miyazaki de Studio Ghibli.

La película no cuenta la historia entera de Nausicaä, la princesa guerrera del Valle del Viento que se ve envuelta en un conflicto global en lo que queda del mundo humano después del cataclismo que fueron "Los Siete Día de Fuego" donde el mundo fue incinerado e irradiado a más no poder.

El manga explora más allá y ahonda en los temas del origen de la humanidad y como es que el bosque contaminado está limpiando el planeta y la terrible realidad de los humanos que duermen esperando el mundo se rehabilite.

SOBERBIA

One of my favorite pieces of fiction in any medium. I really can't gush about how underlooked it is because of its age (1982 - 1994). It's such a shame we'll probably never see a proper adaptation since Hayao Miyazaki is protective of his work (and rightfully so, his work is incredible).

Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is an epic fantasy post-apocalyptic steampunk-ish story where the earth has been engulfed by fire and what remains are tiny pieces of inhabitable land and giant forests of corruption, filled with miasma and massive insects. The world is incredibly well made and always very interesting. The story always kept me interested and was surprisingly varied. The action is S-tier, with a ton of great battles and set pieces... I could go on, you get the point.

Really, if there's a single issue with this manga, it's that the action scenes can sometimes be a little difficult to follow because of how much is happening at one time. You get used to it fairly quickly though, and it's still good that fights aren't drawn out like other manga.

If you're going to read ONE manga in your entire life, absolutely read this!
