Nausicaa
Nausicaä is a fictional character from Hayao Miyazaki's science fiction manga series Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind and his anime film of the same name.
The story is set in the future on a post-apocalyptic Earth, where Nausicaä is the princess of the Valley of the Wind, a minor kingdom.
She assumes the responsibilities of her ill father and succeeds him to the throne in the course of the story.
Fueled by her love for others and for life itself, Nausicaä studies the ecology of her world to understand the Sea of Corruption (or Toxic Jungle in the anime), a system of flora and fauna which came into being after the Seven Days of Fire, a technological war which killed most of humanity a thousand years prior to the main events in the story.
Miyazaki's Nausicaä has an impressive set of abilities which include her determination and commitment.
Her magnetic personality attracts admiration and adoration from nearly all those who meet her.
Her empathy allows her to communicate with many animals, including the Ohmu, an intelligent race of giant insects who are guardians of the Sea of Corruption or Toxic Jungle, feared by most other humans.
Because the Valley of the Wind has obligations towards its allies, Nausicaä has to join a war between adjacent territories of the remaining inhabitable land.
Assuming command of the Valley's small force sets her off on a journey that will alter the course of human existence.
The settings, characters and their alliances differ between the manga and the anime.
The manga and the anime have each attracted a global audience.
The film adaptation was made with a cast of well known voice actors, first in Japan and later for its international releases.
The plot, themes and characters of the story have also sparked academic interest in different fields of study, which will be briefly summarized in the section on reception.
