I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Thoroughly likable story of self-purpose and acceptance with Studio Ghibli's usual flair for picturesque seaside locals (these movies are never an eyesore). Like "Totoro", "Kiki's Delivery Service" has little in the way of conflict and moves like a cool breeze, but is rich in character (kinda surprising how much personality can be found in an impudent black cat).This is just about the most good-natured thing I've seen in a while. Plenty of heart.7/10

For me - it is a clear 10/10. It is one of those rare gems that contradicts so many usual movie concepts but emerges much better from this.This movie tells a part of a story of the life of Kiki. It is an exciting part - full of wonder and adventure ... but it is not some artificial adventure with epic good vs. evil... nor is it some rare and unlikely incident that puts the protagonist into unlikely positions she needs to solve with previously unknown skills.Instead it is the excitement of growing up and becoming independent. The situations Kiki gets in are situations that pretty much EVERYONE lived through at a certain age. There is not really much hyped up action (well, at least if you get down to it...) - and everything Kiki goes through remains relatable.The people - no matter of importance - act natural (well in the context of most Miyazaki movies) and it is one of those rare movies that gets along without an antagonist to drive the story forward.But at no time does the movie feel long or boring - and it also ends on a high note without sinking into stereotypes.In terms of art and design - it is as stunning as other Miyazaki films of that time. Amazing hand drawn animation with a vivid world and vibrant colours. Probably not as stunning as Spirited Away .. but on equal terms with Howl's Moving Castle.
