Witch's Delivery Service

The main character is Kiki, a young witch who has just turned 13. According to witch tradition, at this age, you must leave your home and live on your own in a strange city for a year to prove you've become a true witch. The only thing Kiki can truly do is fly on a broomstick. Together with her black cat, Jiji (Zizi), she sets off on a journey. Along the way, many funny and exciting moments occur: Kiki struggles to control the broomstick, gets caught in a thunderstorm, and hides in a train car. Eventually, she finds the cozy seaside town of Koriko and decides to stay there. *In Koriko, Kiki meets the baker Osono—a kind, caring woman who treats the girl almost like a mother. Osono helps Kiki find a place to live and gives her an idea: use her ability to fly to deliver packages. This is how "Kiki's Delivery Service" comes into being.

Kiki starts working: flying around the city, delivering things, getting to know the locals. At first, it all seems like a fun adventure, but it quickly becomes clear that the job also comes with responsibility, fatigue, and sometimes ingratitude from clients. Kiki learns to be independent: cleaning, cooking, planning, and coping with difficulties.*
