In 1995, Studio Ghibli adopted Toonz, an independently developed animation software published by Japanese publisher Dwango. “During the production of Princess Mononoke in 1995, we needed a software enabling us to create a certain section of the animation digitally,” said Atsushi Okui. “We checked for what was available at that time and chose ‘Toonz’.”
In 2016, the animation software was released as an open source platform by the developers called OpenToonz. Okui went on to add that the software permitted friction-less theatre-quality animation with the ability to combine hand-drawn animation with digitally painted animation. Studio Ghibli began using Toonz and followed it through multiple major updates that embraced ease-of-use and enhanced its capabilities.
