Kiki's Delivery Service
I remember Kiki's Delivery Service as my very first anime; and I can remember that I didn't even know what anime was at the time. I was probably in first or second grade. I'd wager closer to first, though. I was amazed by the artwork and the cute characters that somehow stood high above the Disney characters many people love so much. Many of the usual movies made for the children of my generation (e.g. Lion King, Toy Story) were ironically lame, in my opinion. I found it ironic because, obviously, they became so popular...
Movies from Studio Ghibli, however, have always held a special place in my heart. I love the art and I love the stories... Kiki's Delivery Service isn't my favorite, however. My favorite would have to be Spirited Away. I love that movie more than any other, actually. It was so amazingly put together, I can't explain how awesome it was the first time I saw it.
I also enjoyed Howl's Moving Castle and The Castle in the Sky...
Not sure if the latter is even a Studio Ghibli film, but I like it anyway. :P
I think maybe Kiki's Delivery Service was my first taste of anime, and the film that first turned me into the anime/manga-lover I am today. If it weren't for the cutesy characters and amazing storylines of Hayao Miyazaki, I might be into shows that star ACTUAL people... how lame would THAT be? haha.
Now, I'm going to bed. I haven't accomplished ANYTHING today.
I was supposed to have my friend, Garrett, over to spend the night.
Didn't work out, so I'm alone!~
And I'm tired, it's freaking 3:25 in the morning... Good night~
