Studio Ghibli is famous for its gorgeous hand-drawn illustrations, high-quality filmmaking, and endearing stories. All of these contribute to making the franchise one of the most renowned animation studios for live-action or animated films. 

The Japanese-owned studio has many feature films that have won the hearts of many. Studio Ghibli has introduced many people to the incredible world of animation and has produced some of the highest-grossing films in Japan.

It has even gone on to influence other animation studios, as well as fans worldwide. Some of the studio's most successful projects are Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle, Merry Go Round of Life, The Wind Rises, Castle In The Sky, and many others.

Studio Ghibli’s attractive visuals and unique animation style have inspired many fans to create animation artworks sampling their methods. Redditors, for example, usually have a lot to say about them, and some back it up with numerous types of fan art they create in Studio Ghibli style.

We found one of those fans on Reddit. He shared some AI-Generated art of Austin, Texas, in Studio Ghibli style. These pictures featured landscapes, rivers, buildings, skylines, etc.

You can already guess that anime fans had a lot of opinions about this. Check out the images and some of their reactions to the art below!

"Lovely" is the word

For those who are familiar with Austin, can you recognize any of the buildings from the illustrations?

OP’s AI-generated art received mixed reactions from the people in the comments section.

For some, he didn’t hit the nail on the head with style, as they believed his AI art didn’t correctly depict the style that Studio Ghibli is famous for.

Others, however, loved it. We guess that’s why the saying “different strokes for different folks” never loses accuracy.

What do you think about OP’s AI art? Do you think it’s something Studio Ghibli could have created, or is it wide off the mark?
