Line 66:
* [[Nerd Glasses]]; Tombo has them.
* [[No Antagonist]]: The film has no active antagonist - the source of conflict is Kiki's inner struggles with growing up. The film is also quite laid back until the climax, focusing on [[Slice of Life]] rather than an epic quest, invalidating the need for an antagonist.
* [[No Flow in CGI]]: A minor example. In original concept sketches, Kiki has long hair. In the final product, Kiki's hair was cut much shorter so it is easier to animate. There's still hair and cloth physics. In fact, there's ''a lot'' of hair and cloth physics. It's just that there isn't as much physics as there should be.
* [[Opposite Gender Protagonists]]: Kiki and Tombo start out disliking each other. Once Kiki saw who Tombo really was, she started to open up to him. Tombo has a passion for aviation, making Kiki a perfect friend, as her witch powers enable her to fly. The ending sequence shows them flying together; Tombo on the plane he built, and Kiki on her broomstick. These two, despite having great chemistry, never engage in romance, instead being [[Implied Love Interest]]s and the film remains [[No Hugging, No Kissing]].
* [[Plucky Girl]]: Kiki's a poster child for this trope. She's a Miyazaki heroine, after all. It takes true talent to leave your parents by thirteen and settle into a brand new life.
