Aside from the feature films, also don’t forget:

• his one major manga/graphic novel, Nausicaä

• Future Boy Conan (TV series)

• Panda Kopanda (aka Panda! Go, Panda!) (two short films)

• the five episodes of Sherlock Hound he directed

• On Your Mark (music video)

(of course, there’s more)

Deeper in the iceberg we find early animation work by Miyazaki on the 1969 film Phantom Flying Ship: https://www.sakugabooru.com/data/4d0af6c0638a415173b7de66766...

Future boy Conan is one of my absolute favourite tv shows and it feels so pertinent to our current time. I recommend it to others often, but no one takes a chance on it :(

I go back to watch FBC it every 5 years, it's absolutely fantastic in every way and for anyone.

Not Ghibli or Miyazaki at all but I would recommend Now And Then, Here And There as a companion piece. It's tropes and plot points are similar to FBC but seen through a very different lens.

Nausicaa the comic is incredible, beautiful, bigger story than the film, and has deeper worldbuilding. I second the recommendation.

Miyazaki has also two books with collected essays/articles of his; I have the first one and I would not strongly recommend them though they have wonderful sketch art inside. The essays are mostly old man rants about how everything is done worse these days and they weren't even written recently.
