Flying Witch
On Nippon TV
A gentle, warmly affectionate slice-of-life anime about a young witch learning magic and family in rural Japan, built entirely on comfort and human connection.
Makoto Kowata is a little flighty, in multiple ways. With no sense of direction, but the ability to fly on a broom, this witch-in-training has a lot to learn; about magic, her relatives, and the world around her.
