Trivia:

The English dub of this is known to include Phil Hartman's last performance before he died.

The credits to the VHS release of the Disney dub included this line: "In Memory of Phil Hartman, 1948-1998"

There were 67,317 cels and 462 colors used in this production

During the production phase, Miyazaki and his artists traveled to Sweden to research for the film. The photographs they took of Stockholm and Visby, formed the basis of the fictional city of Koriko. The city also contains elements of Lisbon, Paris, San Francisco, and Milan.

One of the last successful sellers on vhs in America before the format became obsolete.

In the English dub, references to cofee were replaced with hot chocolate.

Spot the studio plug: The bus that Kiki nearly hits when she just arrives in town reads "Studio Ghibli."

Sadly, this marked the first of three posthumous roles from Phil Hartman. In 1998, the same year the English VHS was released, he was shot and killed by his wife.
