For the better part of a decade, Beyond Ghibli has provided some of the most mature, thoughtful, and certainly best-edited perspectives on the artistic medium of anime to be found on YouTube. From the channel description:
Beyond Ghibli is a celebration of Japanese media, be it anime, manga, video games or beyond!! These aren't reviews or critiques - instead, BG will be full of wholehearted recommendations; where newcomers can start their journey, and where veterans can find their next favourite . My videos are deep dives into some of the country's most beloved properties and explorations of their creation: from the minds that brought them to life, to the thoroughly Japanese culture and themes woven throughout. I hope you'll enjoy exploring it all with me!
This work has culminated in the upcoming release of a new coffee table book by channel creator Joe O'Connell.
