$270 Ghibli Advent Calendar??

Full review of the Kinda Kawaii Studio Ghibli Advent Calendar! Favorites, least favorites, some things that really annoyed me about their marketing, and whether I thought it was worth it overall, and if I'll be ordering next year. It's still unclear if this calendar was okayed by Ghibli. We've seen businesses have to pivot just for using a combination of colors, fonts, and words, even after running their ideas by a team of lawyers (think Elegant Lashes with WB), and they're definitely using movie names and imagery. But, they do have the Ghibli copyright printed on the Jiji journal they produced, so it is possible they've had at least some things about this cleared. 0:00 Intro 0:19 Why I Bought It 1:08 Unboxing Recap 2:30 Quality Control 3:01 Favorites & Least Favorites 4:15 The Price 5:59 Bad Descriptions 6:59 Day 9 7:17 Standard vs Luxe 8:38 Story Telling 11:03 The Ring 11:49 A Second Run 12:32 Generative AI? 14:00 Was It Worth It
