There is a social code that girls whose mothers are witches have to go training journeys for 1 year at the ages of 13. She likes flying on a broomstick. When she got to her age 13,she decide to go training journey with black cat Jiji.
Then she will have not only pleasant time but also sadness or feeling blue. For example, one day, she suddenly will not be able to fly, and she will not be able to talk to Jiji. But she will somehow find the strength to endure the tragic burden, and develop through friendly competition with supportive her friends, people who met there and Jiji.
Since I came to Winnipeg, I had thought that it is not preferable to watching Japanese movies in Canada. But I got homesick last summer, I missed my family, Japanese friends everything of Japan hopelessly, and I felt that don't want to study English. Then I watched this movie, but it is dubbed in English.
I realized that I am in the similar environment with Kiki, like without any acquaintances and living new environment. So thanks to this movie, I could overcome the problem. So I recommend to watch this movie especially when you battle with troubles or obstacles.
I like studio ghibli too:)
ReplyDeleteKiki and Jiji are very cute;D
My favorite movie is Totoro!

I also like STUDIO GHIBLI!

When I was same age as Chihiro(Sen), I watched this movie. I was scared little bit.
Also, I was touched when Chihiro ate an onigiri which Haku gave her.
Especially, Haku is really really handsome!!!<3
