Kiki's Delivery Service is pretty much the LAST thing a person would think he/she would enjoy. There's no action, little plot, and it's about a little girl riding around on a broom with her pet cat doing errands. Doesn't sound like the basis for a good anime, does it? However, Miyazaki shoots and he SCORES!
Yes, this anime is good despite the crummy concept. The animation is also top-notch as the characters move about with fluidity and the world is immensely detailed, as one would expect from a Miyazaki film. The only problem with the animation that I could find was that the character designs are a little too jagged.
The other complaint I have with Kiki's is that the ending is just way too abrupt. It's not enough to detract from my enjoyment of the movie but I would have liked to see it a little longer.
Likes - An innocent film with a wonderful charm to it; great for both adults and children alike; original concept
Dislikes - The ending; character designs are too jagged
