Isn't Studio Ghibli effectively shut down since their last movie and Miyazaki's retirement?
And as much as I love their movies, I wouldn't exactly call it an ethical animation studio. People there are constantly overworked and many have said Miyazaki is a very harsh person to work with.
They released the second season of the animesation for the Astrid Lindgren saga Ronja the Robbers daughter rather recently afaik. So they are doing stuff besides the movies.
