    I think the author meant "mostly 2D animation" when they say "hand-drawn", in contrast to the fully 3D rendered movies such as Toy Story. They mentioned Suzume as a hand-drawn movie, even though it was a mix of 2D animation and 3D CG.

    The 2022 Anime Blockbuster Movie Suzume by Makoto Shinkai starts out in Miyazaki Prefecture.(https://miyazakian.com/locations/nichinan/suzume.html) We're often forgotten as a destination, even though Miyazaki is a hidden gem as a Surfers and nature paradise. I'm trying to change that through my Miyazakian website.
