the Nausicaä movie is great because it is like what if we had romantic pushback against the age of science and reason but it WASN’T poisoned by European intellectualism
every time i try to read gothic fiction i am just like “why isn’t this Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind”
• it’s got science going too far
• it’s got body horror
• it’s got strange and powerful creatures beyond human comprehension
• it’s got an invisible yet deadly and pervasive illness
• it’s got people being constant fuckups as they attempt to enact their petty politics in a world they do not control or understand
• it’s got an incredibly hot yet morally ambiguous lesbian
