Kiki's Delivery Service/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • In the Disney English dub, there's a dedication: In Memory of Phil Hartman 1948-1998. Doubles as a Tear Jerker.
  • When Jiji is pushed into posing as a currently missing stuffed toy cat, he meets the family's rather BIG dog. Just when he thinks he's done for, the dog walks over to him and licks him! After that the dog is very protective of Jiji and won't let anybody near him.
  • When Jiji gets his voice back!

Jiji: <way over the top> Meowwwwww!

  • Kiki Glomping Osono's husband after seeing the sign he made for her delivery service.
  • Ursula's speech about finding inspiration again. Even if your passion in life isn't art, you can probably empathize with it.
    • Even more fundamentally, her arrival just after Kiki's lowest point in the story is a wonderfully reassuring moment that someone is coming to help her.
