In this episode we dive into Hayao Miyazaki’s Ponyo, a wildly imaginative story of friendship, family, and a little fish with a serious love for ham. We break down the movie’s unforgettable animation, environmental themes, behind-the-scenes details, and the pure chaos that follows when Ponyo decides she wants to become human. Grab some ramen and join us as we head under the sea for one of Studio Ghibli’s most charming adventures.
