I'm hooked: Nausicaa of the valley wind

I just finished watching anime from ghibli studio. Nausicaa of the valley wind. Even though the anime was produced in 1983 it is still impressive. The anime is about Nausicaa, a princess of valley wind, a kingdom which located near to toxic forest. the princess has the ability to interact with insects from toxic forest and Ohmu, a strange insect which guard the forest and she is very skilled in flying a jet called glider. Human cannot enter the toxic village without mask as it is lethal. one day, the kingdom of valley wind was attacked by a powerful state of Tolmekia. The state of Tolmekia and another kingdom, Pejite want to destroy the toxic forest by using giant soldier which was made from ancient technology. This has enraged the Ohmu, the guardian of toxic forest and cause them to attack the kingdom Pejite and valley wind. Nausicaa try to stop the attack by sacrificing her life. Finally she was able to calm the enraged ohmu and stop the attack. Nausicaa found that the toxic forest exists to purify the pollution on earth and ohmu guard the forest to maintain its existence.

Since i'm already hooked with the anime, I'm currently reading the manga. I hope the manga is very good an worth reading.

Japanese usually take the idea from their manga and anime seriously. This is the video of the glider test flight. I hope the glider can be marketed in the future..
