Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (風の谷のナウシカ Kaze no Tani no Naushika?) tells the story of Nausicaä, the princess of a small nation who lives in a world devastated by a holocaust called the "Seven Days of Fire". She tries to stop other warring nations from destroying themselves and from destroying the only means by which their world can be saved from the spread of polluted wastelands.
- Nausicaä (Sumi Shimamoto), a princess of the Valley of the Wind, is a skillful fighter, but is also humane and peace-loving. She communicates with the giant insects (particularly the Ohmu: gigantic, armored, caterpillar insects who are the most intelligent in the Jungle).
- Master Yupa (Goro Naya), a wise wandering warrior, is dedicated to finding the legendary "man in blue" who has the power to reunite people and nature. Nausicaä is inspired by Yupa, and she explores the Toxic Jungle to help her understand it. She travels long distances by "windriding": flying an advanced jet-assisted glider.
- Princess Lastelle (Miina Tominaga) of Pejite, as a hostage Tolmekia.
- Princess Kushana (Yoshiko Sakakibara) and her general, Kurotowa (Iemasa Kayumi)-Tolmekians, try to use the Warrior embryo to burn the Toxic Jungle, even though legends warn against this.
- Asbel (Yoji Matsuda) of Pejite, the twin brother of Lastelle.
