This movie is the equivalent of a mug of hot chocolate on a windy autumn day.

I watched this kid all the time but when I watched it recently, I realized it’s about burnout. Kiki loses her magic when she just focuses on making money and forgets why she’s a witch to begin with. As an adult I resonate with this movie on a different level and it makes me love it more.

A cool but of world building (and I don’t know if it’s necessarily canon to the story) Miyazaki said that he imagined the world of this movie was what Europe would’ve been like in the 50s of the World Wars had never happened and that idea went into the design of everything you see.

This is my comfort movie. Any time I feel bummed out, sad or in a weird mood. I remember watching this movie as a kid and just loving it. I own it on blu ray and digital. Its just a beautiful movie.

Vote for Agustin to bring up his past trauma watching Grave of the Fireflies in all videos 😂. We’re all with you dude. We can be a support group.

Glad to see y'all working through more Ghibli stuff!

A,one my favorite comfort movies. I shared this with my 2yo daughter last week. She wants to be Jiji for halloween. I’m going to join her as Jeff the dog.

Hey guys! Thanks so much for your reaction! As an 80s baby, Studio Ghibli's films have been a huge impact on my life. 'Kiki's Delivery Service' was my first Ghibli film. I watched the original on VHS in the early 90s and it blew my mind. When Disney had made arrangements with Studio Ghibli in order to do more mass production, I noticed some editing changes in the script, especially with Jiji. I remember renting out alot of Studio Ghibli films from the Japanamation section at Blockbuster and attended every Studio Ghibli premiere whenever we got it here in the US. I've seen every film and own them all. I love this journey you are doing and am excited for more reactions! Thanks guys! P.S.- YES 'GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES' WILL MESS YOU UP.

Aww, yeahhhh! Man, this is the kind of movie if you have kids or younger cousins or nieces or nephews, it's a great one to show them. I mean, sure, I love it too so you could probably just show it to your adult friends, too, so I guess it's for anyone lol.

In my opinion, I find the ending of this movie pretty sad because Kiki's friend Jiji couldn't talk anymore. But I understand that it symbolizes Kiki growing up, and entering a new stage of her life. Still a great a movie though.

Castle in the Sky is a lot of fun, too.

Fun fact there's a noodle cup commercial were it's Kiki doing high schooler things in a more modern day setting(including helping fill the school pool while standing on a broom cause in Japan the students help clean the building before going home to learn responsibility) At the end she tells the guy she has a special delivery for him which is implied to be her confessing her love to him before it shows this is a noodle cup commercial. The commercial is meant to be based on the theme "youth", it's done by the person that helped with Honey & Clover along with Carol and Tuesday with music by Bump of Chicken.

Just bought a Ghibli book and found out the town was inspired from Sweden. An info I quite found interesting myself 😅😅😅

Thank you for watching any Miyazaki movies, I'm so happy ! Can't wait for the next one ! Maybe Nausicaa ?

The first time I saw this film, it was in Japanese with English subtitles. Rei Sakuma's voice is much higher as Jiji, so it took me a while to get used to Phil Hartman in the same role. I'm glad you noticed the architecture. Miyazaki was inspired by Stockholm and Visby in Sweden. Miyazaki set Kiki's in a Europe in which WWII never happened. The depiction of the wood-fired oven, by the way, is accurate. Ursula's painting was painted by the students at a special school for challenged children. It is titled "The Ship Flying over the Rainbow".

Nothing can ever beat Totoro for me, but it hits differently when you grew up with it and had a single father, a sister, and a mom with health issues who you didn't get to see often

Hector, Adam, Agustin, "Not even Studio Ghibli can make herring pie look good." Granddaughter says out loud what they... said out loud and all of a sudden she's the bad guy! I see how you guys are! 🤣

Absolutely NEED you guys to react to Princess Mononoke! That and Kiki arey absolute favorite Ghibli movies!

I'm perfectly ok with you guys swamping us with Ghibli reactions, but I understand if you guys want to sprinkle in other content, too. That said, have you guys seen Porco Rosso from Ghibli? One of my all time favorites. Though, mood/atmosphere-wise, may be close to Kiki so maybe a different Ghibli film like Nausicaa or Mononoke? Thanks for this reaction, guys~

Princess Mononoke is probably the most epic Ghibli film and the dub is amazing. good lesser-watched Ghibli include Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro (technically pre-Ghibli, but Miyazaki, about a gentleman thief, counterfeit money, and a stolen princess) and Pom Poko (super weird, one of the Takahata films, not as devastating as GotF, promise). for non-Ghibli, try Your Name (2016) (no spoilers, it's too good) and Tokyo Godfathers (2003), the latter is a Christmas film about a group of homeless people.

この英語吹替版のキキの演技をしている人は、オリジナル版のキキと違って対人関係に自信がある少女の話し方をしています。オリジナル版のキキはもっと自分に自信の無い不安に満ちた話し方をする少女です。この吹替版はオリジナルとは別の作品と思って見て下さい。

Hector Panther to Captain Kiki: Someone... get this young woman a broom.

I love how you guys are all trashing the pumpkin-fish pot pie (admittedly, sounds like an acquired taste) until the stuck-up granddaughter disses her grandma over it. Blink and you’ll miss it, but the mean granddaughter is part of that crowd of kids Tombo hangs out with. At the end of the propeller-bike scene, she’s there, and at least in the subtitled version she says something like “she delivered a pie to my house on my birthday!”

Great movie! The whole time the Dad in me was screaming, "Why is she in a dress while flying on a broom?” 😂

Keep going, Studio Ghibli is the best. Howl"s Moving Castle is my favorite. Although heavy on the world war commentary, excellent character development. Favorite voice actor Billy Crystal.

Second time seeing this film. Its been at least 15 years when i watched it with my kids. Such a good film, and thanks for watching it. How are you guys picking the order in which you watching the collection?

Don't lie to me, Grave of the Fireflies incoming

I used to watch this movie basically on repeat as a kid.

Anything from Ghibli is a must watch. My favorite of the catalog is Howl's Moving Castle with the Secret World of Arietty following a close second!

Great reaction! Please watch Castle in the Sky. It was my first Ghibli film and got me into watching the whole collection. You will love the adventure!

Looooove Kiki's Delivery Service. If you plan on doing more Studio Ghibli stuff, I highly recommend Nausicca of the Valley of the Wind.

Adam not knowing his right from his left when Hector mentioned that Tombo wasn't going to know his right from his left 🤣

Summer Wars. Summer Wars. Summer Wars. (Lets be real everyone, it would be one of their favorites!)

My favorite Ghibili movie!! So pumped for this!

Porco Rosso! For whatever reason, the older I get, the more I am in love with it.

1:23 Mocos!! 😂 Where I used to live we shortened it to Moco, and we had like a dozen Jennifers, so they all had nicknames, and one we called Moco. 😂

Miyazaki had gone to Europe to try to negotiate for the right to make a Pippi Longstocking movie. He failed but seeing the countryside inspired him to write and make this movie instead.

Love the reaction as always... Next one should be Princess Mononoke..

Did you all know, the name of the boy, Tombo (Tonbo in Japanese) means dragonfly?

My niece likes this movie way better than Frozen in Frozen 2 don't ask😂😂

So happy y'all are back with a cozy classic!

My first Ghibli film and one of my favorites 💕 can’t wait to dive into this reaction!!

While I love this movie, I can only watch the Streamline Fox dub of this (from the 90s). Disney changed the music stings as well as cut out a lot of Phil Hartmans lines in their dub. If you guys ever get the chance, check out that dub just to hear more of Phil 💕

this movie like the city she comes to is actually based on visby in sweden so the guy who makes these movies hayao mizaki or whatever his name is he went to sweden and got so inspired by the places and how beautiful it was so he chose to make the movie and have sweden as a inspiration

I've had the dreams where I could fly, then I could mostly fly, then it slips away. I usually wake up in tears. Man. Depressing sort of dream.

Kiki’s is on my top anime movies of all time! Up there with Akira, Ghost in the Shell and Howl’s Moving Castle. This is my go to feel good movie. Perfect movie to watch after Akira for an existential crisis palate cleanser 😂 though there are also deep themes in this movie.

I love these movies my favorite is Sprit Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, Castle in the Sky and you did it My Neighbor Totoro

Can't wait to see your reaction to Nausicaa!

Time for some ghibli adventure guys, nausicca, castle in the sky, or castle of cagliostro

I love Kiki’s delivery service, it’s very well loved in my house.

It’s based on stockholm and visby. Both in sweden. He wanted to adapt pippi långstrump/longstocking , a swedish book/movie/series character into a ghibli movie. I assume he went to sweden then and was inspired.

Since you guys are going on an anime bender i would check out Ninja Scroll and Vampire Hunter D those were my first 2 anime films i watched at like 12 and they still hold-up as the gold standard for a lot of anime fans

Perfect follow-up to Akira 🙃 Cozy times!

I've seen Grave of the Fireflies once and I thought it was a brilliant movie, but I don't think I will ever watch it again. It definitely does rip your heart out and seriously mess you up. It does its job VERY well.

i need yall to do princess mononoke ASAP (also tysm for these videos, yall make me laugh sm)

Batkid begins is about the make-a-wish and it’s absolutely one of my favorite movies (documentary) and I think you guys would love it!

6:23 this music is a masterpiece

I'm here waiting for One Piece live action! It's the kind of thing that will make you fall in love so easily the only regret you'll have is not having watched it sooner! Love you guys ❤

I think this was my first Ghibli movie at around 8 or 9 (I also saw Totoro right around the same time, but I think this was first) and it was very formative.

Yeah watching this as a young adult having had burnout, and fallen into depression hits so different. Would love you guys to react to Castle of Cagliostro!

There was no reason for the next Ghibli movie to be 2 months after Totoro lol. I want to see you guys go through the rest even tho the strike is over!!!!

Castle in the sky please!

Great reaction video. Loved it!

The book is delightful, equal to the film

hurry up and get on Loki season 2!!!

Haven't watched this movie in years. It was the first anime content I ever watched. I mean... I own a VHS tape of this movie.

Oh my God PLEASE tell me you guys are going to keep reacting to Hayao Miyazakis films.

When I first saw it, many many many many centuries ago, I was distraught that the cat never spoke again. But now, on the whole... enjoyed it.

I first saw this a bootleg VHS tape in college with no subtitles or English dub.

This is such a comfort movie for me!!! 🤩

Top 5 movie - all categories for me such a great feel-good movie who means a lot 🇯🇵☺️❤️

Ah, there you are! My childhood. 💖

Really hope they watch Howl's

Hey, good to see you again.

Great movie. After Ghibli, maybe check out Satoshi Kon's "Millennium Actress".

Howls Moving Castle should be next

Bro if y’all do Howls Moving Castle imma lose it! The dub is so good.

You guys are going to love Porco Rosso

What a delightful film

Lovely reactions! I hope u guys do more ghibli!

Would LOVE to see Kiki's from A24 !! xD

this movie is my soup and breadsticks movie.

Can't wait for Nausicaä and Princess Mononoke reaction

Note to western animations: who's the villain?

Where is the loki ep reactions ?? 🥺🥺

Glad you're not going to watch Grave of the Fireflies - apart from being heart-wrenching, it's a ghibli film but not by Miyazaki. It's more a film to watch if you want to see the realities of war on children - much in the same genre as Schindler's List I'd say. In Ghibli films look for the ones directed by Miyazaki - he is the genius director.

watch Made in Abyss! it's the fav anime for Nami's actor in the One Piece Live Action. Won Anime of the Year in like 2017

Hector, Adam, Agustin we still waiting for you reaction to Loki season two..

Can someone comment when they watch spirited away ? 😂

5:51 I always thought this girl was mary and the witch.

Are you guys gonna be posting your reactions to Ahsoka any time soon?

Im kinda worried if something happened or just not enough time 👀

Will y'all talk about Loki season 2 as well?

Moving series please🎉🎉🎉

Are y'all doing reactions to Ahsoka?

PONYO

Hey guys, where is your loki reaction... I'm waiting 😭😭😭😭

Are you guys no longer reacting to Star Wars or the MCU??

How in the world have you overlooked two of the highest rated and most watched Netflix short series? WEDNESDAY and THE QUEEEN'S GAMBIT. Both are outstanding! Add them to the list.
