I watched My Neighbor Totoro for the first time in a very long time last night. I grew up with this movie, and it was my introduction to Japanese animation and to Miyazaki’s work in particular. It’s still brilliant, and I think it’s only getting better with time. I decided my chalkboard at home needed a little tribute, which I present to you here:

The characters read “Tonari no Totoro,” or “My Neighbor Totoro.” If you’ve never seen this movie, I highly recommend finding a copy. There is so much to love about it.
