I also haven't seen either of those, or Pom Poko. I do have the others on
DVD. It's too bad they;re airing them (relatively) late at night. I know
my niece & nephew would like to see some of the ones I haven't gotten for
them on DVD. I'm already planning on getting them Castle In The Sky for
Christmas.

My 10 year old niece also likes to watch the Ghibli DVDs when she visits me.
We've watched Spirited Away and Kiki several times together. At some point,
and I don't remember when, she heard me talking about Grave Of The
Fireflies. When she visited me in August she asked to watch it. She
remembered every detail of what I said about it. I haven't bought her any
of the DVDs because she doesn't take care of her stuff, but she's happy
watching them with me a few times each year.
My oldest niece has a year old daughter of her own now. I'm wondering if
it's a little early to be buying her Spirited Away for Christmas. She'll be
17 months by Christmas and it's never too early to start!
