List of accolades received by Hayao Miyazaki

is a Japanese film director, producer, screenwriter, animator, author, and manga artist. A co-founder of Studio Ghibli, a film and animation studio, he has attained international acclaim as a masterful storyteller and as a maker of anime feature films. His works are characterized by the recurrence of progressive themes, such as environmentalism, pacifism, feminism, love and family. His films' protagonists are often strong girls or young women, and several of his films present morally ambiguous antagonists with redeeming qualities.

In the course of his career, Miyazaki has received multiple awards and nominations. His first feature films, ''The Castle of Cagliostro'' and '' Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind'', earned him the Ōfuji Noburō Award at the Mainichi Film Awards in 1979 and 1984, respectively. His film '' Laputa: Castle in the Sky'' won Best Anime at the Anime Grand Prix in 1986, and ''My Neighbor Totoro'' won Best Photography at the Japan Academy Prize in 1989. He received several awards for his work on ''Kiki's Delivery Service'' in 1990, including Best Japanese Film at the Golden Gross Awards and the Special Award at the Japan Academy Prize. ''Porco Rosso'' also won the Mainichi Film Award for Best Animation Film in 1993.

Miyazaki's film ''Princess Mononoke'' was the first animated film to win the Japan Academy Prize for Picture of the Year; its distribution to the Western world greatly increased Ghibli's popularity and influence outside Japan, and his 2001 film ''Spirited Away'' won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards. His 2004 film ''Howl's Moving Castle'' and 2009 film ''Ponyo'' received several awards, including Animation of the Year at the Tokyo Anime Awards, and both were nominated for the Annie Award for Directing in a Feature Production. His 2013 film ''The Wind Rises'' was also highly awarded; it received Animation of the Year from the Japan Academy Prize, and a nomination for Best Foreign Language Film at the 71st Golden Globe Awards. ''Howl's Moving Castle'' and ''The Wind Rises'' were nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 78th and 86th Academy Awards. Miyazaki was awarded the Academy Honorary Award in November 2014, for his impact on animation and cinema.
