Steve Yun posted:People worry ghibli will wither without Miyazaki in a way they don’t worry about other studios that have a deep bench of directors It’s also a concern of Miyazaki himself. He’s basically Mr Ghibli, especially since Takahata died. When Miyazaki dies/finally properly retires Ghibli will basically be over, in any recognisable form anyway. They’ve been trying to build up a successor for decades, and the recent sale of Ghibli to Nippon TV is basically an admission they’re giving up. This happened because Miyazaki is a notoriously terrible boss and mentor and has managed to drive away any potential protégé, and in one case arguably murdered them. Of course one of those potential protégés is his own son Goro. For some insight into their relationship, check this out - this is one of the co-founders of Gainax, so he knows everyone involved personally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDncPfDzqTM Hayao and Goro worked together on From Up On Poppy Hill after that video was recorded, so presumably they patched things up though.
