Product reviews...
This anime has beautifully drawn artwork in bright harmonious colours. It tells a simple engaging story that will appeal to a young audience. I am surprised at the PG rating in NZ. It has an international G rating which I think is appropriate.
This is a light-hearted tale of a young girl who sets off to discover and master her unique talents as a witch. Kiki has no idea what her particular gift might be, but she is determined to prove herself worthy.
It soon becomes clear that Kiki's flying skills and eagerness to help others are her strengths and she sets up a flying delivery service. In the escapades that follow, Kiki triumphs in the struggle to keep believing in herself in the face of apparent failures and learns the value of friendship. Through it all she establishes a role and place for herself in the town.
A worthwhile addition to the children's/family movie collection.
