[[File:Kiki's delivery service kiki.png|frame|Kiki flying through the night to find a place to settle down.]]
A thirteen year old witch who, in accordance with tradition, must live in a town for a year, on her own, when she turns thirteen.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterKiki include:}}
* [[Blush Sticker]]: Kiki has them throughout the film.

The first person Kiki meets in Koriko who is her age. Tombo is a huge fan of aviation, and is a member of a flying club and builds flying machines.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterTombo include:}}
* [[Adorkable]]: Tombo.
* [[Cool Bike]]: Not a motorbike per say, and Tombo's one isn't shiny or fancy, but does your bike have a propeller attached to the front and can ''fly''?
Line 62:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service osono.png|frame|Osono when she invites Kiki into her bakery.]]
A person who runs the bakery Kiki stays at, and provides for her.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterOsono include:}}
* [[Happily Married]]: To her [[The Silent Bob|silent]] husband, whose name is never given in the film.
* [[Nice Girl]]: Towards Kiki, offering her a place to stay, as well as good in exchange for occasionally looking after the shop.
Line 71:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service ursula.png|frame|Ursula taking Kiki to her secluded cabin.]]
A painter who lives in a reclusive shelter. Kiki meets her on her first delivery job.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterUrsula include:}}

* [[The Hermit]]: She lives in a secluded log cabin away from civilization.
Line 81:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service kiki's mum.png|frame|Kokiri brewing a potion.]]
Kiki's mother, playing a minor role in the beginning and end of the film. When the audience first sees her, she is brewing potions.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterKokiri include:}}
* [[Good Parents]]: Towards Kiki. Yes, the tradition of sending thirteen year olds far away to live on their own isn't the most responsible thing to do, however she is shown to be ''very'' supportive in the short time that she is on screen.
* [[My Beloved Smother]]: She's understandable concerned about Kiki leaving town for a full year to begin her training. She offers her own broom, crafted with more experience, to Kiki.
Line 90:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service kiki's dad.png|frame|Okino talking to Kiki.]]
Kiki's clumsy father, who was planning to take her on a camping trip before she decides to leave.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterOkino include:}}
* [[Bumbling Dad]]: Kiki's father is a lovable version. When Kiki announces that she is leaving, he trips over a string and makes carefully packed bags on top of his car tumble down.
* [[Good Parents]]: Just like Kiki's mum.
Line 99:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service madame.png|frame|Madame in her house when Kiki visits her.]]
A nice old lady who Kiki meets. She asks Kiki to deliver a cake to her granddaughter.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterMadame include:}}
* [[Cool Old Lady]]: She's a pretty chill person, who is nice towards Kiki and concerned about her.
* [[Nice Girl]]: As is the case with almost everyone else in the film.
Line 108:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service jiji.png|frame|Jiji on Kiki's broomstick.]]
All witches have black cats as companions. Jiji is the companion for Kiki!
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterJiji include:}}
* [[Animal Talk]]: Jiji can talk to Kiki, but also to other cats, and birds.
* [[Cats Are Magic]]: He is Kiki's companion on her broomstick, and helps her along her journey while staying at the new town, although the audience never sees he or Kiki cast any spells. You have to be magic to be able to talk to a witch and fly on her broomstick.
Line 120:
[[File:Kiki's delivery service lily.png|frame|Lily sitting on a brick wall.]]
A white cat Jiji meets in Koriko.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this characterLily include:}}
* [[Love Interest]]: For Jiji.
* [[Satellite Character]]: She plays a minor role in the film, and her character is not given much screen time, and thus is not as developed as other members of the cast. Most of her features, such as the status of being a [[Love Interest]] and a reason for Jiji to get out of the house, comes from her interactions with the cat.
