Humanity, once a technologically advanced and thriving civilization, has been pushed to the brink of extinction following a cataclysmic war known as the Seven Days of Fire. The remnants of the human race now live in scattered kingdoms to avoid the relentless spread of the Sea of Corruption, a colossal forest infested with dangerous mutant insects and fungi that produce poisonous spores. Nausicaä, the sole heir to the throne of the agricultural kingdom Valley of the Wind, is thrust into war after an ally kingdom, the imperialist Torumekia, invades the Dorok Empire. Forced to fight alongside the Torumekian military and their cunning princess Kushana, Nausicaä witnesses firsthand the horrors of war and its effects on both humanity and the environment. With her uncanny charisma and gentle nature, Nausicaä may be the only hope for humanity as the ongoing war and the Sea of Corruption hasten the extinction of mankind. Set against the backdrop of a devastated world, *Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä* depicts the aftermath of human folly and the immortal power of nature.

*Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä* won the 26th Seiun Award in the Best Comic category in 1995. VIZ Media published the series in English as *Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind* in five different formats since 1988. The two most recent releases are closest to the original format: a seven-volume release under the Ghibli Library imprint from February 11, 2004, to September 7, 2004, and a complete box set with two hardcover omnibus volumes published on November 6, 2012. (For more details, see the More Info section.) The series was also published in Spanish by Planeta DeAgostini Cómics from May 2001 to October 2001. The first five volumes were released in Brazilian Portuguese by Conrad Editora from July 2006 to May 2009; Editora JBC has republished the series since August 26, 2022.

    very good story development, now we have even more fuel to this act - the idea and mindset of youth development, not only between two coaches, two clubs but between countries, and even at continent level.
