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!
Maybe something chill and comfy like Yuru Camp ?
I dunno man Iyashikei might bore kids to sleep.
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, …).
This was going to be my suggestion, Ghibli has made some really phenomenal shows.
Spy x Family
Cardcaptor Sakura
Bocchi the Rock
Nichijou
Spirited Away
Toradora
Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken
Dragon Pilot
Komi Can’t Communicate
Violet Evergarden
Your Name
Does she have any specific interests? I guess if nothing in general, she might enjoy something like Spirited Away or Spy x Family?
BoFuri is cute and sfw, no real violence.
Kuma Kuma Bear falls in the same area.
Ancient magus bride was a cute fairy tale type anime
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.
K-On!, Laid back camp, Sailor Moon, ghibli movies as many have already stated, all good to try
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.
It has some fight but maybe she’ll like CardCaptor Sakura
