This is a 5" x 25" theater-style auditorium mylar for Hayao Miyazaki's My Neighbor Totoro, created for its 2026 Studio Ghibli Fest theatrical re-release.
Written and directed by legendary filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki, My Neighbor Totoro is one of the most beloved animated films ever made. Originally released in 1988 by Studio Ghibli, the timeless classic follows sisters Satsuki and Mei as they discover magical forest spirits—including the gentle and iconic Totoro—after moving to the countryside. Its heartwarming story, unforgettable characters, and breathtaking animation have made it a favorite for generations of audiences around the world.
This mylar was produced for the 2026 Studio Ghibli Fest, a special five-day nationwide theatrical event presented by GKIDS and Fathom Entertainment. The event featured both the original Japanese-language version with subtitles and the English-language dub, along with the exclusive bonus featurette "Creating My Neighbor Totoro," giving audiences a behind-the-scenes look at the artistry behind this animated masterpiece.
These narrow mylar banners were traditionally displayed above theater auditorium entrances, making them a unique and less commonly seen form of cinema advertising. Studio Ghibli collectibles continue to grow in popularity, making this an outstanding display piece for animation fans and collectors alike.
This example is brand new and unused, carefully stored and handled with care, and remains in excellent condition.
The first photo shows the mylar displayed in a lightbox, where the artwork appears especially vibrant. The second photo shows its normal appearance under standard lighting. Displays especially well when backlit.
