Hi all, I’d like to find some anime for my 9 year old daughter. So far, she’s watched: Little Witch Academia & Kaleido Star.

She doesn’t really like anything too dark or violent. Thanks!

Edit:

Thanks for all the responses, some great suggestions!

    Many of the Ghibli movies should be perfectly fine (My Neighbor Totoro, Whisper of the Heart, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Ponyo, The Secret World of Arrietty, …).

    You know, I was half expecting people to troll and suggest something like “Made in Abyss”.

      Right, yes, I forgot to mention, we watched My Neighbor Totoro & Kiki’s Delivery Service. I should probably try to show her some other ones. Good call!

        I remember that I loved Spirited Away a lot when I was that age. Some kids think it’s scary, but for me it had just the right amount of tension and adventure. (I still like to rewatch it)

    Does she have any specific interests? I guess if nothing in general, she might enjoy something like Spirited Away or Spy x Family?

    Another vote for Bocchi the Rock, it’s an awesome and inpsiring anime. Plus, I think it could be empowering to a little girl to see an all girl cast kick ass at being rockstars.

    The only con I can think of are a few adult gags, though they aren’t super offensive. Most kids shows I watched growing up had adult humor that flew over my head, so it should be fine. Just something to consider.
