A coming-of-age anime like "Kiki's Delivery Service," but set in a wholly realistic world.

I felt this story wrapped up too conveniently and in a little bit of a smaltzy manner, but the struggles of creativity and finding your voice and portrayed very simply and honestly. I also liked the blend of American music with Japanese lyrics. I found that really beautiful.

This is a beautiful film from Miyazaki's Studio Ghibli, a meditation on how adults come to terms with painful memories from childhood and integrate them into their adult lives. The animation is as beautiful as one would expect from any Studio Ghibli film and the story is moving. Highly recommended for anyone who loves movies about how ordinary people live their lives.
