Studio Ghibli has been working on a new animated film called”Kokuriko-zaka kara“, and they’ve recently released some details about the project.

According to the December 15th announcement, it will be directed by Miyazaki Goro – the eldest son of Miyazaki Hayao - as well as by a director from “Tales from Earthsea” (released back in July 2006).

“Kokuriko-zaka kara” was originally a serialized manga published through the comic magazine “Nakayoshi” back in 1980; it revolves around the story of a high school girl named ‘Komatsuzaki Umi’, and takes place in Yokohama in 1963.

Singer Teshima Aoi, who debuted with the theme song “Teru no Uta” for “Tales from Earthsea”, will provide a theme song for this new animated film as well.

“Kokuriko-zaka kara” is set to be released in summer 2011, and we can’t wait to see what Studio Ghibli has in store!
