Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Hayao Miyazaki's most underrated anime is still Kiki's Delivery Service since it was released 35 years ago. Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki have undoubtedly been a hot topic among fans lately. After the famed director's most recent film, The Boy and the Heron, won Best Animated Feature at the 96th Academy Awards, it brought his work back into the spotlight as people began to reminisce about his best work.
While the film was critically acclaimed upon release and has garnered a sizable fanbase, Kiki's Delivery Service hasn't been talked about nearly as much as Miyazaki's other work, joining other Studio Ghibli films as incredibly underrated. Despite this, the film is still an animated masterpiece that deserves to share the same spotlight as films like Spirited Away for its incredible themes and character work.
The themes of Kiki's Delivery Service undeniably reach the same heights as some of Miyazaki's other works. Just a few of the concepts it dives into include the topic of maturity, the important value of self-care, the dangers of burnout, the importance of independence and more. It's remarkable how such a simple story is capable of being much deeper than fans expected.
This leads to her overworking herself because she wants to grow up and be a full-fledged witch while completely overlooking another important aspect of being on her own: self-care. She's constantly shown working and not making time to be with other kids her age because she wants to stand on her own, with the only moment she experiences true bliss being when she goes out with Tombo and sits along the shore with him.
