Miyazaki has said that Nausicaä was made under Moebius's influence, naming Arzach in particular: the lone rider on a flying creature over silent, alien desert landscapes. The two artists later held a joint exhibition in Paris in 2004.

What Arzach influenced
Works that record this one as a source, with the evidence a contributor gave.
Miyazaki named Mœbius's wordless Arzach as a comic that deeply impressed and inspired him.
Otomo has named Moebius as the artist who changed his drawing, and Akira's precise, airy linework and detailed cityscapes are the result. Filed LOW because the claim is about Moebius's art in general: Arzach is the Moebius work on the map, not one Otomo singled out.
