Obviously the settings are quite similar, as the main characters in both are very small. The world design is always fascinating, seeing small everyday objects used as completely different things than we are used to. They both feature excellent natural visuals, plants and insects, etc. Very cozy. Arrietty has more of a continual story, given it's movie format and intent, but both are great if you feel like watching the world from this more intimate point of view.

Both movies involve the main character being put into an unfamiliar situation and their experiences within said situation.

Both are made by Studio Ghibli and share the same fantasy elements which make Ghibli movies so great. If you liked Arrietty, chances are high you will like Kiki

Auto-conclusive movies and yet masterpieces. Both have gorgeous art and colors, great romantic, fantasy and supernatural stories. Both are two pearls of japanese animation. They both can give you this relaxing calm feeling, and as well melancholic at the same time. Just a word to describe them: Beautiful. In addition, Arrietty has splendid music.

They both have those parts where you can get all excited and say, "Is this IT!? Is this IT!?" You can really feel that heart warming moment when the characters accept each other as who they are. Definitely recommended.

These stories share the same warmth despite being sad. In both movies one of the main characters is sickly and keeps his/her distance from other people until he/she meets someone that helps him/her deal with the difficult situation and emotions. Both movies have a nice mixture of japanese and english themes (such as architechture and music) as they are based on English novels. Same studio, same director, same quality. If you enjoyed one, it's almost quaranteed that you'll enjoy the other.

First off they are both by Ghibli studios. So they both have that same magical feel, with beautifully animated art. Some form of nature is represented in both movies, filled with fantasy like aspects.

"Ghibli vibe". That's all really. I suppose the two connecting factors with the anime are the entanglement of the normal world and the preternatural world. With characters from the two worlds colliding to come forward to a cause they believe is in their best interest. Both anime also contains a duo consisting of a guy going through, usually, any means to support his female friend. A nice kind of teamwork. Ghibli movies. If the name doesn't do anything, I don't know what will. Fun with the family.

Both contains adventures of a little girls in a small village. At the end they have to go to another place ,but in Alps no Shoujo Heidi she comes back. Both have sweet plot and character development .They both seems related or attracted to their village. If you like Karigurashi no Arrietty there is a chance that you might like Alps no Shoujo Heidi .

Soft fluffy tales about growing up featuring characters around similar ages.

Both by Studio Ghibli. A lot of the same nature-typed themes are involved. Both were a joy to watch 
report Recommended by gaarasbff
Both beautiful movies that show Ghibli's subtle, romantic, and evocative side. 
report Recommended by walla
Well, aside from the obvious fact that both are movies, they share a somewhat similar atmosphere. Both give off a very "natural" feel for lack of a better word. The art in both is incredibly beautiful, and both feature a somewhat taboo yet innocent relationship. The soundtracks are also equally gorgeous.

Both are made by Studio Ghibli, and both have girls that come from different worlds than the protagonist.
