Kiki

Kiki is strong-willed, leaving her home in Karikiya for a year at 13-years old in order to undergo the training she's required to complete to be a witch. She is very friendly, curious, kind-hearted, sweet and upbeat. However, she is also rather stubborn and proud at times, which is sometimes to her disadvantage. She is very attached to her pet black cat, Jiji, and introduces him as her best friend. Kiki is not particularly popular when she first arrives in Koriko, but gradually makes new friends with her customers and is the town heroine at the end.

Kiki is a slender thirteen year old girl of average height with straight short dark brown hair in a bob cut which she usually styles using a large, amaranth red bow and has large dark navy blue eyes a small upturned nose and rosy cheeks and very fair skin. She wears a medium-sleeved, dark indigo dress, white undergarments that consist of a tank top and bloomers, and orange flats. At the beginning, she's dressed in a bright green, short-sleeved dress with a medium turtle-neck and a bright pink apron, long, grey socks that are falling down and the same shoes. Kiki is not initially pleased with her appearance at the beginning of the film, but later on is told to like herself as a witch by her mother, Kokiri.
