Trivia:

In the train station at the end of Ocean Waves, there is a Porco Rosso movie poster on the wall. Porco also shows up in the school festival scene.

Ocean Waves was the first anime Ghibli produced under a director other than Miyazaki or Takahata.

Ocean Waves was an attempt to make anime solely by the young staff members, mostly in their 20s and 30s. Their motto was to produce "quickly, cheaply and with quality", but Ocean Waves went over budget and over schedule. The experiment was sadly never repeated again.

The only Studio Ghibli film that was released as a TV movie instead of a theatrical film.

The only Studio Ghibli related film to not be dub in English.

Wasn't released in the USA until 23 years after it was released in Japan.
