Studio Ghibli Clock at Shiodome Station

We stumbled upon the “NI-Tele Really BIG Clock” (aka Giant Ghibli Clock) one day and saw a large crowd of people milling about. It happened to be right before one of the 4 daily “performances” of the clock. It’s apparently based on the aesthetic of Miyazaki’s 2004 film Howl’s Moving Castle and takes up more than 3 stories of the side of the Nippon Television headquarters building.

We got to see a little show, which you can watch below in the video we took. I wouldn't go out of your way to make it a destination if you're not a huge Studio Ghibli fan, but it was right by our hotel and really cute to see in person. - Mina
