Welcome to the forum!
I agree that Ghibli films do a great job of being very thoughtful, even when a lot of other media aimed at children doesn't really bother. Kiki is a good example, because it's based on a children's novel, so it really is meant mainly for kids, but there are some messages that can speak to viewers of any age. I guess the themes of growing up that come up in a few Ghibli films are also nostalgic for a lot of adult viewers.

Thank you!
Does Ghbili actually speak openly about the deeper intentions of their films? So what did they think when they made the films?
There are often many messages hidden in these films that make you think and sometimes even question yourself.
Often the films have open end. Which also leaves many questions unanswered.

I don't know if they usually talk that much about the ideas behind the films, but sometimes in interviews or books they definitely say a bit about the behind-the-scenes process, which can reveal some things about their intentions. Documentaries might be worth checking out too.
Also, there haven't been many new films made in the last few years, and Miyazaki doesn't really speak in public much, at least nowadays. I think Goro is a bit more talkative though.

Ghibli's films really make us ponder the deep meaning inside. Like the movie Spirited Away, I had to watch it many times before I could understand the meaning of the movie. Even went to the forum to ask.
