Studio Ghibli closing! I hadn't heard...

[Drac of the Sharp Smiles]

Did someone already post this and I missed it? My husband forwarded this link to me that Studio Ghibli is closing their animation department. The translation seems a bit weird, but the message still pretty clear:

Ah, that's too bad.

I had heard that they might close it because of how their recent productions had underperformed, but I was hoping that it wouldn't happen.
