    "Then stop trying. Take long walks. Look at the scenery. Doze off at noon. Don’t even think about flying. And then, pretty soon you’ll be flying again."

    Like a parable for young girls finding their way in the world with the help of great, diverse, women as a support group. One of the best films about women

    the saddest part is when jiji stops talking. i get that’s the part of growing up as a witch and now kiki doesn’t depend on him anymore, but it’s still soo sad. i want a snarky witch cat :/

    how can i decide with whom i relate to the most in this movie... the young witch who talks to her black cat and always wears black, the black cat who is always a mood or the girl who lives in the woods by herself and draws birds

As a story about how hard it is to make your own way in the world, Kiki’s Delivery Service is truthful and scalpel-sharp. That it manages all this while remaining consistently funny, optimistic and exciting – even for little ones – is a mark of Miyazaki’s genius.

Kiki's slow pace and light-on-conflict plot may surprise kids used to American animation, but it's difficult not to be won over by the film's endearing characters and beautiful animation, as well as a storyline that stresses the values of independence and friendship.
