When Shō arrives at the house on the first day, he sees a cat, Niya, trying to attack something in the bushes but it gives up after it is attacked by a crow. Shō gets a glimpse of Arrietty, a young Borrower girl, returning to her home through an underground air vent. At night, Arrietty 's father, Pod, takes her on her first `` borrowing '' mission, to get sugar and tissue paper. After obtaining a sugar cube from the kitchen, they travel inside a hollow wall to a bedroom which they enter through an intriguing dollhouse with working electric lights and kitchen utensils. However, it is Shō 's bedroom ; he lies awake and sees Arrietty when she tries to take a tissue from his night table. Startled, she drops the sugar cube. Shō tries to comfort her, but Pod and Arrietty quietly leave and go home. The next day, Shō puts the sugar cube and a little note beside the air vent where he first saw Arrietty. Pod warns Arrietty not to take it because their existence must be kept secret from humans. Nevertheless, she sneaks out to visit Shō in his bedroom. She drops the sugar cube on the floor, letting him know that she is there. Without showing herself, she tells Shō to leave her family alone and that they do not need his help. On her return, Arrietty is intercepted by her father. Realizing they have been detected, Pod and his wife Homily decide that they must move out. Shō learns from Sadako that some of his ancestors had noticed the presence of Borrowers in the house and had the dollhouse custom - built for them. The Borrowers had not been seen since, however. Pod returns injured from a borrowing mission and is helped home by Spiller, a Borrower boy he met on the way. He informs them that there are other places the Borrowers could move to. While Pod is recovering, Shō removes the floorboard concealing the Borrower household and replaces their kitchen with the kitchen from the dollhouse, to show he hopes them to stay. However, the Borrowers are frightened by this and instead speed up their moving process. After Pod recovers, he goes to explore possible new living quarters. Arrietty goes to bid farewell to Shō, but in the course of the conversation he suggests to her that the Borrowers are becoming extinct. Arrietty tells him fiercely that they will not give up so easily. Shō apologises that he has forced them to move out and reveals he has had a heart condition since birth and will have an operation in a few days. The operation does not have a good chance of success. He believes that there is nothing he can do about it, saying that eventually every living thing dies. While Sadako is out, Haru notices the floorboards have been disturbed. She unearths the Borrowers ' house and captures Homily. Alerted by her mother 's screams, Arrietty leaves Shō in the garden and goes to investigate. Saddened by her departure, Shō returns to his room. Haru locks him in and calls a pest removal company to capture the other Borrowers alive. Arrietty comes to Shō for help ; they rescue Homily and he destroys all traces of the Borrowers ' presence. On their way out during the night, the Borrowers are spotted by the cat Niya. Sleepless, Shō goes into the garden for a stroll and the cat leads him to the `` river '', where the Borrowers are waiting for Spiller to take them further. Shō gives Arrietty a sugar cube and tells her that her courage and the Borrowers ' fight for survival have made him want to live through the operation. Arrietty gives him her hair clip as a token of remembrance. The Borrowers leave in a floating teapot with Spiller. The Disney international dubbed version contains a final monologue, where Shō states that he never saw Arrietty again and returned to the home a year later, indicating that the operation had been successful. He is happy to hear rumors of objects disappearing in his neighbors ' homes.

Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score, rated the film 80 out of 100 based on 28 reviews. Cristoph Mark of The Daily Yomiuri praised the film, calling it `` likely a perennial favorite among children ''. He particularly liked the film effects, which he described as `` Drops of water loom large and drip like syrup ; the ticking of a clock reverberates through the floor and the theater 's speakers ; tissue paper is large and stiff... '', adding that these effects gives the audience `` a glimpse into their own world, but from a different perspective ''. Mark Schilling of The Japan Times gave the film a rating of four out of five stars, and said that the film `` speaks straight to the heart and imagination of ( everyone ). '' Schilling also praised the film 's animation, saying that ( Studio Ghibli animators ) are past masters at creating the illusion of presence and depth without ( 3 - D effects ). However, he also said that some scenes in the film `` threatens to devolve into the sappy, the preachy, and the slapsticky '' but noted that these scenes were `` mercifully brief ''. Steve Rose, the reviewer for The Guardian, gave the film four out of five stars, describing it as `` a gentle and entrancing tale, deeper and richer than more instantly gratifying fare. '' Rose also described the film as `` the soul food of the animation world, '' however, he did note that this film `` does n't match previous hits such as Spirited Away or Princess Mononoke in terms of epic scale or adult appeal '', even though it bears many of their hallmarks : bright, detailed animation... '' Deborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter gave a positive review of the film. She said that the film `` remains essentially a film for children ''. Young later went on to say that the relationship with Sho and Arrietty `` touches the heartstrings with gentle yearning '', and praised Yonebayashi for its direction. In the opening remarks made by David Gritten of The Telegraph, he said that the film was `` ravishingly colourful and textured ''. He also praised the animation, saying that `` animation does n't get better than Arrietty. '' Gritten gave the film a rating of 4 stars out of 5 stars. In his review for Special Broadcasting Service, Don Groves gave a mixed review of the film and said that Arrietty was a `` very slender, minor work. '' Groves also criticized the film 's storyline, calling it `` a gentle, humourless, uncomplicated tale of friendship in an alien environment. '' However, he praised the voice acting as `` generally is as professional as ( one would ) expect. '' Groves gave the film a rating of 3.5 stars out of 5 stars. Zac Bertschy of Anime News Network gave the North American version of Arrietty an overall grade of `` B ''. Bertschy praised the voice acting in the film and also praised the intricate details of the film 's backgrounds, but said that `` there is n't more going on here, even when it comes to the film 's basic story '', however, he later went on to say that it is `` foolish to deny the simple, warm, and familiar pleasures of Arrietty 's world ''. Leslie Felperin of Variety praised the film as `` old school, mostly in a good way. '' She also praised the film for its animation, as well as Yonebayashi 's direction. Felperin noted however, that the film lacked its `` approach to storytelling that made Studio Ghibli 's other ( films ) so compelling. '' Manohla Dargis of The New York Times praised the film for its hand - drawn animation and Yonebayashi 's direction. Dargis later went on to say that the film has `` a way of taking ( the audience ) where ( they ) may not expect. '' Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times described the film as `` beautiful, gentle and pure ''. Turan also praised the detail and animation in the film, as well as its storyline. He also praised Karey Kirkpatrick and Gary Rydstrom for their adaptation of the film, as well as their casting decisions for the British and North American versions. Lisa Schwarzbaum, the reviewer for Entertainment Weekly, gave the film a `` B + '' and praised Arrietty for its animation. Schwarzbaum later went on to say that the result is a `` dreamy, soft - edge hybrid, equally interested in observing raindrops and the worries of a race of minuscule beings.
