Weapon Design Scene

I am a person who is studying the design elements and scenes used in movies. I've collected some cool and unique scenes and designs that can be overlooked but learnable.

It's not a work that I made. Therefore, I will not generate revenue from this video.

I admire Miyazaki’s take on aircraft and war machines, so intimidating and bulky.
Haha! Your picture is the pirate from Porco Roso!
о так етож воздушный пират из porco roso
One thing I've realized about Miyazaki's designs is that they're very organic, looking almost like living and breathing animals.
Even the most mechanical/dieselpunk designs have some sort of organic-ness to them.
I've noticed that he seems to like some of the lesser-known ideas in aviation (or concepts that just aren't as famous as their other counterparts).
Example A: the Goliath, a massive airship with the weaponry of a battleship (airships weren't used in combat for very long, and the only two truly massive ones I can think of off the top of my head that were remotely similar to the Goliath were the Acron and Macon, both of which were retired relstively quickly.
Example B: the Valley's Gunship, from Nausicaa.
It lacks any sort of stabilizers (both horizontal and vertical), making it a tailless aircraft. There were relatively few tailless aircraft that saw service, though the Northrop X-5 Bantam and Messerschmidt Me-163 were norable examples.
Another thing to note is just how *fluid* his lighter aircraft move throught his films, while also seemingly keeping some sort of heft/weight to them.
A lot of other aviation-focused Anime seem to forget about mass when they have their aircraft doing dogfights (like Area 88 and Macross/Robotech)
Always felt sad for the Goliath getting destroyed. Such a gorgeous ship.
Goliath is possible one of the coolest airships in all of fiction
and it blew up
f**k you muska
It is also one of the military ships that we get to see in action
really a well designed dieselpunk air warship
Really wish they made more steampunk or dieselpunk military films or series
@@technopriest6708this studio or just in general
I forgot how much raw destruction is in Miazaki's films when humans fight each other, barely anything is left untouched
But...the android that woke up in the fortress did far more damage in my opinion
@@lilredwagon5311 That wasn't something I liked too much. A couple notches below would have been perfect
@@lilredwagon5311 I think its beautiful that the robots are shown as both superweapons (I mean it really trashed that fortress, melting the blast doors and turrets to slag like it was nothing) and also the robots caring for the garden and living peacefully with the animals.
I mean I dont recommend it due to emotional scarring but seeing images from WW1 is similar. The landscape is just straight up gone.
The worst enemy of a human is usually another human.
Castle in the Sky has my favorite vehicle designs from all the Ghibli films. I love how chunky and muscular the army's machines are, and how alien and intimidating the Laputan technology is
It's my favorite Ghibli film in general.
i sometime kind of wish we got a sequel to see more of these kinds of designs
I'm just now realizing how genius the upper propellers are on Goliath and other airships, you see, zeppelins back then needed water ballast to stay at a certain altitude, the water you eject will determine how high you're gonna be. But then there's the issue with going down, you'd need to vent whatever lifting gas you're using, which is extremely valuable as you can't replenish it during flight, and with helium's case, it's super expensive as well! The upper propellers though, they eliminate this issue entirely, all you'd need to do is keep the ship's ballast right so it stays at it's own altitude neutrally! Airships nowadays actually use something like this, Goodyear blimps have props that can swivel, this allows it to take off upwards instantly.
i mean it would trend to gain altitude as consumables and munitions are used up but its still an interesting idea
ever heard of atmospheric ballast in those blimps? they take in atmospheric air to compress the helium and make it denser to trim the ship down, and vice versa. Also they have 2 bags at either ends to trim the attitude of the ship, just like a submarine
@@mariebcfhs9491 Thought that was only with blimps though, not rigid airships.
@@steamachest2077 well rigid airships also don't have armor plating didn't they?
@@mariebcfhs9491 What's your point?
Miyazaki was illustrating for japanese modelling magazines, so he's intimately familiar with drawing combat vehicles. He also despises war. This makes for an interesting duality, as war machines have a beauty of their own. Its a shame they actually have to be used.
It’s also reflected in the way he designs war machines...
They somehow seem to be both beautiful and hideous at the same time, like gigantic flying insects
@@void-creature it's like brutalism. it looks horrible but has a vibe to it
@@aurin_komak yeah, I really like both.
In my experience, I’m someone that enjoys studying wars of history. In doing so, you get to understand the human cost as well. That’s the best way I can describe the duality, the more you understand war the better you’ll visualize what it does to not only belligerents, but the world surrounding it. It’s interesting to study it, yet I abhor it
And this duality takes center stage in The Wind Rises!
80's anime was so flippin beautiful. There have been great anime since, but that hand-drawn art just has that special something.
I mean, isnt modern anime still hand drawn?
@@troy4298 very little coming from netflix is hand drawn...lots and lots of cgi stuff from the major Japanese anime companies lately.
@@troy4298 you should look up a movie called Redline! I read somewhere that the movie took decades to complete being every single bit of it is hand drawn! And its such a fricken awesome movie!
@@lilredwagon5311 hmm, i think im gonna watch that later seems like a good recommendation, but for now i think i need sleep lol its 4 am
I would totally watch a series taking place in this world…
There's one super cool thing: all the airships use the same technologies - from the opening to the every blimp present there are some things that they have in common - like shafts which carry several propellers.
Also - there are some zeppelins in opening which have the same frontal shaft with propellers as Goliath has.
And again, Laputa still stays unreached as there are only one propeller on each of its shafts.
I am not the only one who recognize this! What a elaborate masterpiece!
That ending "castle" wasn't Laputa. Laputa didn't have/use rotors
@@midgetman4206 this is Laputa. This is the opening with 'Destruction of Laputa' playing, it must be Laputa.
@@strakhovandrri I think that was the first flying island, not Laputa
@@midgetman4206 there were other islands?
The Goliath looks fantastic. Makes me think of what amazing designs could have been made if humanity did develop the zeppelin technology further.
@buffalo wt Gosh darn science getting in our way of fantastical greatness.
@@midgetman4206 smh shaking my head why does science have rules
@buffalo wt Well the Propellors on the top of the Goliath are there for a reason. If we are able to lift the Goliath with the help of Propellors making it a hybrid between a zeppelin and a helicopter then we are able to not only make Goliath float but also control it's altitude.
I don't think a vessel like the Goliath is feasible, but some of the smaller ones seem like they'd work in real life
Zeppelins are too fragile to be used as aerial warships
The requirement to be light ultimately makes it impossible to add any armour, even the goliath is later snapped in half and going down burning likely from detonated hydrogen
Watched it again yesterday. I was stunned that this movie is 35 years old now. If I ever have grandkids, I know what we'll be watching. This movie will still look good in a thousand years.
I just love this movie! and the weapon design is genius!
But it would be a very easy target in real life war , still cool though
@@m33a Probably need Combat Air Patrol and escorts just like how real battleship works
@@m33a i think it would work more like a carrier that a fortress
@@ericcheng5496 battleships r still far harder to shoot compared to this flying fortress
@@il_vendicatore with the amount of huge caliber canons i dont think its purpose is to carry things
The designs of the military uniforms, equipment and vehicles was spot on in this film. Ironic, considering the directors pacifism.
That's part of the reason Miyazaki is a pacifist is because he understands weapons and military equipment.
He was affected by Japan Post-war society. He knew war. He knew how harsh it would be both for servicemen and the civilian.
어릴 적, 라퓨타에서 보았던 골리앗은 내 유년시절의 로망 그 자체 였던...
미야자키 하야오 감독이 밀리터리 오타쿠라, 나우시카/라퓨타에서 나오는 전쟁무기들의 디자인이 훌륭하죠.
몇 번 봐도 감탄하게 되던
I remember looking up “Goliath Castle in the Sky” like 7 years ago cuz I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Back then all there were were blurry photos of a tv and like a 144p video on CZcams
골리앗이 마치 잠수함 처럼 추격하고 구름에 탄착되는 표현이 너무 좋았음
These airships look amazing!
All the thing he draw feel like they actually have weight, it is amazing
The tank train was pretty sick
the designs are basically ww1 concepts taken to their absolute Extreme
to the extreme.
warhammer40K is the absolute extreme
2:33 I feel armored train would be easy to defeat by blowing up the bridge that's supporting it.
It might be a vulnerable point but it's probably only meant to be on ground tracks
It's not like they go against armed rebels anyway. As it's been said, unless it has to travel within controlled territories, it's probably going to stay on ground tracks
Wouldn't even surprised if you didn't even need a gun to destroy it, the sheer weight of the armored train + everyone on it could make the bridge collapse
Armored trains was a thing pre world war 2 btw.
@@s14tat they saw a ton of action in the Russian civil war
미야자키 하야오 감독의 무기는 로망을 담아내고 있다고 생각한다.
철 없는 어린 시절, 크고 거대한 대포와 전차를 좋아하던 동심을 구현한 것 같다고 할까.
이러한 로망을 그려냄과 동시에, 파멸적인 모습을 보여주어 반전의 의미를 강조하는건 정말 천재적인 묘사가 아닐까 싶다.
some of the weapon designs are based off of real weapons in ww1 and ww2 and the soldiers are based off of ww1 german imperial soldiers
What else, its always us who have to play the dumb Bad guys. Name one movie with germans on the good side, cause i dont know any.
@@leander2843 hey at least they are sick looking man
@@leander2843 they look fuckin badass though
@@leander2843 But aren't they trying to kill the bandits? You know, People who are criminals. So they are just a More extreme police.
@@pipopoikapelaa5468 they arent the Police, they are the military. The point is: as soon as the need for a large Group of combatants on the side of the bad guys rises, the first thing comming to minds is: the german army, be it the ww1 military or the Wehrmacht, desing, structure and weaponry is mostly taken from these sources. Some other instances are atlantis, the lost empire, where Rourkes second in command, Helga, is of german descent, as well as the Design of the majority of the mercs at the final battle who resemble more late ww1 german trench soldiers and at the same time something of ss elite troops. Or star wars, the imperial officers uniforms are directly inspired by german ww2 officer uniforms. So as i said, no matter what, we germans will always have to be the dumb Bad guys who perish at the end.
Imagine if goliath added in battlefield 1
*THE ENEMY HAS BEEN REINFORCED BY GOLIATH*
My favorite airship by far

Me too
Yes
2:20 I just realized that those were a line of Parasite Spy-planes.
Exactly!
I love the German WW1 setting
This is by far the best Edit of a movie on CZcams! The choice of clips to go with different parts of the score fits very well 😊
宮崎アニメのメカデザインは細部までのこだわりが本当に素晴らしい。メカとはかけ離れている作品でも車やバイクそれこそ家庭内の家電に至るまで（ほんの一瞬映るものでも）細部のこだわりがたまらない。
兵器はもちろん、爆発したり物が崩れ落ちたりする描写も非常に手が込んでますね。
This movie needs a prequel which takes place in Laputa before the fall of their civilization.
"Goliath"
A name alone can strike fear.
今にして思えばゴリアテは相手が悪かっただけなんだなぁ。
こんな空飛ぶ戦艦を持ってるなんておっかない。
ラピュタに登場する兵器はゴリアテみたいな宮崎駿の空想の産物を別にすると、第一次世界大戦と第二次世界大戦の戦間期あたりくらいの進歩具合だなあ。
事實上大多數的武器都是第一次世界大戰
武器：李-恩菲爾德 Mk3 馬克沁M1910
裝甲列車：名稱不知道但確定是奧匈帝國的樣式
士兵的服裝：名稱不知道但確定是日俄戰爭時期（1904～1905）
@@Helmet-Amiya-Donky 重砲和要塞比較接近一次大戰風格，但有些科幻武器例如後掠翼噴射機。所以他說戰間期也沒有錯。
士兵的服裝當然就是一戰德軍，都戴矛盔了。

確か第一次世界大戦でドイツが勝った世界線の話だったはずですちなみに舞台はイギリスで登場する兵器や兵士たちはドイツ陸軍所属のイギリス方面軍らしいです
@@eggsigure2581
そのためか、イギリス人やドイツ人がラピュタを見ると「舞台はどこなんだ？」と疑問に思うそうです。（日本人からすると欧米人が製作した映画で、街並みは中国なのに日本のサムライが登場するようなもの）
Man,ghibli studio is like Valve of animation atleast in the quality of their work
They don't count to 2 either
@@crushfruits2660 You mean three? Anyways, perhaps it's a good thing that's so.
Happy 35th Anniversary to The Castle in the Sky!
Weapon design in this film crazy😍😍🤯
Amazing!
I love the train tank, that is such a cool design
When im in an anti war animation competiton and my opponent is miyazaki.
This film is criminally underrated. I think it's the best film studio has ever been made, and it deserves a prequel or a sequel.
Robot Soldier clips please
I remember watch Laputa in my video player in my grandma s house back in 1980s. Unfortunately the video was without Indonesian caption, i could only marvel at its realistic action and adventures. Several years ago i re watch in yt with english caption. Really amazing and entertaining film.
2:32 The mine railway can’t be made of wood
Perhaps a dumb question, but why couln’t they? Hasn’t wood been used even as a support material for mine tunnels?
@@7013032
“Not of this scale” I should have said. As it carries the huge gunner train.
They are made of steel and the supports are made of huge wood columns.cheap but not reliable
> Fervent pacifist.
> Designs some of the most gorgeous steampunk war machines ever put to film.
Gotta love Miyazaki, LOL.
I've seen amazing creative design and artwork from Studio Ghibli, I mean, just look at the video!
戦争が嫌いなのに戦闘機・兵器オタクという背反した嗜好
単に｢戦争好きだから兵器好き！｣ってなるか？子供の頃｢戦車かっこいい！戦闘機かっこいい！銃かっこいい！｣って何も考えずに思ったことないか？それと一緒のような感覚なのでは
戦争は大嫌いですが、合理化に徹底した兵器は美しいと捉えられる側面もあると思ってます。
人間が持っている“感性”は人それぞれである。
野球やサッカーが大好きな人間もいれば、自動車や飛行機が好きな人間もいる。
もちろんそうした延長で、軍隊が使用する工業製品(＝兵器)に魅力を感じる人間もいるのである。
ところがこの国では、先の戦争に負けて以来、軍隊は悪だという教育をし続けてきたわけ。
そこでその、幼少のころから培われた「兵器に魅力を感じる感性」と
ある程度の歳になってから教え込まれた「軍隊は悪だと思う思想」という一見矛盾した2つを包摂した人間ができるわけだ。
むしろミリオタに戦争好きとか言う方が失礼になるんじゃないか？彼らは兵器の美しさを知る際に戦いの歴史も学ぶから戦争の残虐さを誰よりも理解してる筈
車好きが車に対する破壊行為を嫌うのと同じ事。戦争では兵器が真っ先に破壊される。故に兵器好きと戦争嫌いは全く矛盾しない。
Friend: What would the High Fleet world look like in the anime setting?
I am:
I think the High Fleet world is more like Princess Nausica's world. Post apocalyptic with some old tech still running
The flying machines made me remember the novel Robur the Conqueror by Jules Verne.
The fortress and ground forces are designed for his cancelled project, Sortie of Multi-turret Tank.
I remember watching this movie when I was younger
こういう趣の架空兵器が好きな人には大砲とスタンプという漫画がオススメ
ちらっと検索してみたけど面白そうじゃん。主人公は旧ソ連軍みたいな軍装だったな。

Amazing
It looks similar to The Iron Vulture from Talespin. I wonder if the designers from Talespin were fans of this film
i'd like to see some of the other machines in the movie
like the tiger moth and flapters.
the beginning scene where the goliath get's hit by the search lights reminds me of the scene where the blücher get's spotted in the movie the kings choice
Back when television used to be entertaining
The whole time Muska's spies works for the Army to find the fugitive Sheeta with the crystal to nabbed her and Pazu. The Amy freed Pazu to leave the fortress without her, she's still hostage. At dawn during breakdown robot tries to protect shita no soldiers could take her away, there goes her necklace after the cannon shot. By next morning, the Goliath annihilated Air Pirate vessel through the whirlwind, Sheeta and Pazu made it first, so did Dola and her men survive then the Goliath arrived on the platform to imprisoned, also army collected treasures, Muska and his spies taken Sheeta to the dome, Pazu gotta free the pirate gang. However, Muska destroyed the radios from General Muoro's guards, soldiers find him and arrest him, Muska used her crystal to opened up the dome's gate to the observation deck. After the mission, the Goliath has fallen, destroyed by thier betrayal colonel, could've done without his army and agents.

Battlefield 1
They have taken objective zeppelin
i have a theory about how the world in this movie came to be
I think that at some point imperial germany and the British empire became a single nation which the fought against France Italy and austro hungary in an alternate world war 1
it would explain why the army has both English and german weaponry, why the mining town fortress and the town that was damaged in the fight against the robot look like great britain, why many of the air pirates have french sounding names like louis henri and Charles, and why there is such a strong military presence.
But then who built Laputa? While there are parallels in the technology with ours about a century or so back this civilization is probably built over the ruins of a much older one that must have existed thousands of years in the past. The mining town for example looks like its been there with people mining for a very, very long time.
@@AbelMcTalisker laputa was built by the laputians whose civilization ended roughly 700 years earlier and was independent of all other civilizations
@@hurricanefury439 But not in the history that produced states like Germany or Britain.
@@AbelMcTalisker actually yes it is. considering that muska mentions that laputa inspired the fire of heaven that destroyed sodom and gamora as well as some roman mythology. it would actually seem that history in this world (on the ground at least) stayed the same until the 19th century seeing how the photograph pazus father took of laputa is dated July 1868
@@hurricanefury439 Since what Pazu`s father was flying was a petrol-engined airship then that would imply that the internal combustion engine was invented about 50 years before it was in our timeline.
I think Giffard`s attempt`s to build a steam-powered airship dated from about the 1860`s but that didn`t really work. And, did Laputa exist in our timeline, I think not.
need to see the pirates one
やっぱりこの頃の作品が一番良かったな
I payed more attention to the weapons than whole movie itself Lol
Reminds me of the airship from Tail Spin

You can see strong Steampunk and minor Deisealpunk design elements in the vehicles and weapons of the film. They're all late-Victorian/Edwardian/WWI-era designs. Heck, the soldiers are literally dressed in Imperial German uniforms complete with helmet spike, wielding Gewher 98s and Maxim Machine Guns, and using Stielhandgranates.
One of the interesting details is Muska and his secret agents are wielding British Webley Revolvers (the distinctive break-action and flat sides of the barrel with protruding rounded undercarriage connecting the barrel to the trigger guard gives it away, the agent at 1:28 has a good 3/4 profile shot of the gun as he aims it).
The enemy has been reinforced with a Behemoth .
Humanities biggest potencial is seen on the battlefield.
GLORY TO THE ENGINES OF WAR!
You missed the point of the movie.
The point of the movie is that war is hell for everyone and should not be happening at the first place
Judging from the title I thought this was an actual clip scene from the movie of some weapon(s) being designed.

Miyazaki is funny since he hates war but he loves war machines.
I remember watching an anime similar to this.. About princess fighting her father who want to destroy the world with a floating fortress and in her despair moment her mother the queen show up and interfere in the battle with her imparial armored train and send a warning to the king if he won't stop she'll use all the cannons and shot his floating fortress.. If anyone remember this anime plz provide me with the name..
The anime you are referring to is probably Code Geass:
@@richardgomez8010 thanks man I'll check that.. Cuz I was searching for a long time in many anime sites with no luck at all..
I reviewed all code geass series and movies.. Unfortunately, this is not what I am looking for.. As I mentioned it's about a princess fighting her old man father who want to destroy the world by his floating fortress which is something like a mountain or land with a destructive cannon beam under the fortress and many cannons not one but 3 fortresses like an army and that princess was trying every methods to stop him but nothing can stop him and in her despair moment her mother the queen show up in (((royal armored train))) with a lot of cannons.. I didn't found that armored train in code geass..
Finally, I found it after hard and a long time from searching watching all the similars anime in different categories..
It's Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar.. The queen was flora - sama and her armored train showed up in ep 8
It's strange that anime was not found in YT's.. Anyway, glad to find it..
M...yes, people have learned to fly stools))
interestingly most of the weapons are british, lee enfields, maxim guns and webley revolvers.
What is this? This is very interesting!! Looks like world war one but exaggerated.
This is the studio ghibli(the guys who did spirited away) 1986 movie, castle in the sky
And the airship at 0:06 and many other shots is called air destroyer Goliath
How could you leave out the robots?
They dont make anime like this anymore🥺
