background introduction

In the summer of 200 1 year, just before Ghibli was about to release Spirited Away, it was announced that they would release two works at the same time in the summer of 2002. The two works are a novel with a score of 1 hour and a novella with a score of 1 hour 10 respectively. The main content of this novella was completed in February 2000, and its name is tentatively named Baron. It can be inferred from the title of the work that it tells a story that happened in the same world as Listening directed by 1995 by Yoshifumi Kondō. This is also the first time Ghibli has released a sequel-like sister film, which is quite rare.

200 1 12 13 when announcing the distribution plan for 2002, Dongbao Company indicated that it had decided to officially rename "Ba Long" as "Love for Cats". On March 26th, 2002, a press conference was held in the office of Studio Ghibli, Miyazaki Hayao, Xiaojing City on 10. The voice of the heroine, the theme song singer, was announced and the movie story was introduced.

This film is not directed by Miyazaki Hayao himself, but is only in charge of planning. Therefore, Joe Hisaishi, Miyazaki Hayao's partner for many years, was not used in music, but was in charge of Unomi Uchi, who used to be the music producer of Listen to Ears, and the theme song Wind was sung by Guo of Amigny.
