Duo the Owl steals the Howl Moving Castle, and turn it into a pop-up theater to encourage fans to learn Japanese.

Duolingo is teaming up with legendary animation studio Ghibli to present Owl’s Moving Castle—a traveling theater inspired by Miyazaki’s beloved film Howl’s Moving Castle. The owl is bringing it to cities across the country to screen Ghibli classics in Japanese, so audiences can experience them exactly as they were meant to be heard.
No dubs. Just pure Ghibli magic. Because real fans know the magic is in the details.
