The Nippon TV (NTV) television broadcasting company announced on Thursday that it has decided to acquire 42.3% of the shares of world-famous animation studio Ghibli. This transaction, once completed, would make NTV the largest shareholder of the Ghibli, and turn the studio into a subsidiary of Nippon TV.
Ghibli is done anyway with Miyazaki resigning. I assume that moving forward, ghibli will foremost be an IP holder making money off of licensing.
