This week, since Miyazaki has returned to the Big Ghib to give Michael Jordan a run for his money when it comes to returning from retirement, Shaun decided now would be a good time to show Remington the first official (since Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind was released before Studio Ghibli was officially established) film released by Studio Ghibli with Laputa: Castle in the Sky.

Meanwhile, Remington thinks back to a recent RPG session.
