I’m so happy to finally share my 2026 My Neighbor Totoro calendar collection, a full set dedicated entirely to one of the most beloved and comforting anime films of all time. Totoro has been a source of calm, wonder, and nostalgia for so many of us, and this collection was created as a quiet celebration of that gentle magic.

This set focuses on the everyday beauty that makes My Neighbor Totoro so special, peaceful countryside moments, small discoveries, childhood curiosity, and the soft presence of forest spirits watching over it all. From sunny fields and winding paths to cosy interiors and still, reflective scenes, each calendar layout is designed to feel soothing rather than busy, giving the artwork room to breathe.

Creating anime calendars has been one of my favourite yearly traditions since 2017, and Totoro has always held a special place in my heart. This collection was made slowly and intentionally, with the aim of capturing that same feeling of safety and quiet joy the film brings, something you can return to every day throughout 2026.
