Miyazaki creates complex fantastical worlds that function according to their own mysterious but incontrovertible logic — and then embeds those worlds within equally specific real - life settings (so that, for example, the magical undersea kingdom in Ponyo believably exists side by side with
the bustling small port city where the human hero, Sōsuke, lives with his mother).
Voyager will also call at the
bustling port of Bangkok (Thailand) and berth right in the heart of the city - a completely new venture for Voyages of Discovery, made possible due to the
small size of Voyager.
