StoryDive | Ponyo Revealed: The Real Mythology & Folklore Explained! @StoryDive | Uploaded September 2020 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Ponyo or "Ponyo on the Cliff" is Hayao Miyazaki 's 10th feature film as director. Like most of Miyazaki's films, this tale about a magical Goldfish turned Little Girl adapts mythology and other culture. Miyazaki was quite public about one of these sources: "The little mermaid" fairytale, but I believe there is far more to Ponyo than Hans Christian Anderson's story. In this video I will attempt to break down all those sources. The Myths, Legends and Culture that inspired Ponyo.
