Netflix has acquired the rights to stream 21 films from the acclaimed Japanese animation company Studio Ghibli in several different countries, including Ireland.

The streaming service will release classics like My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki's Delivery Service among others starting February 1st, rolling out over three consecutive months, with seven films a month.
