@Jikorijo@htGOIW As he pointed out, home video was still barely a thing then, so people read this sort of books and at the same time listened to the audio from movies released on vinyl or compact cassette to re-experience what they watched in theaters.
After the extensive edit in Warriors of the Wind coming to Miyazaki's hearing through a Japanese news paper, he severely criticized the said English version and Ghibli has been trying to obliterate it from existence, but I find their reaction somewhat unfair and excessive.
