Usagi Yojimbo:The Movie?

Please? This could work really really well. I think the best animators for it would have to be the company of Miyazaki, the director that did

Howl's Moving Castle

Spirited Away

Princess Mononoke

Kiki's Delivery Service

My Neighbor Totoro

Castle in the Sky

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Winds

I think his style along with the story of Usagi would fit so well. Pleae Sakai-San, I want to see Usagi animated beyond TMNT.

Also, and I doubt anyone has heard of this, but Samurai Champloo is an anime that is stylistically similar to Usagi.

The Kodama Tree spirits are a great character from Princess Mononoke. Miyazaki could really do Usagi some justice. It would be great to see.

Kodama rule! The Faceless guy in Spirited Away rules! But the one who rules them all is... TOTORO!!

I'd love to see a Usagi movie directed by him, but I fear that's highly unlikely

I dunno-- pig (Porco Rosso), tanuki and foxes (Ponpoko), cats (The Cat Returns, Kiki), pandas (Panda Go Panda), dogs (Sherlock Hound) and horrifying starveling children (Grave of the Fireflies)... you'd think studio ghibli could slide in a Chanbara Rabbit.
