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, …).

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

      While I absolutely love the show, I don’t think it’s a good fit. OP said nothing too dark and the show literally starts with the protagonists willingly selling herself to slavery. It does get more lighthearted from there, but then it gets dark again when the antagonist is introduced.

    Majo no Tabitabi. A very enjoyable magical adventure. Episode 8 has a jump scare that she might not like, so skip that one or watch it yourself first and decide. The episode itself starts with a warning about this so you don’t need to remember which one it is.

    Somali – another magical adventure, I don’t recall it containing any scenes that a child would be uncomfortable with.
