1. Kiki’s Delivery Service
Film | 1h 43min
Watch on: Netflix, Max, Prime Video
13-year-old Kiki is flying around on her broom, delivering packages, and figuring out life. It’s wholesomely rebellious—like, “Yeah, I do magic, but I also run a small business.” Minimalist witchcraft with maximum heart and a bit of sass from a talking cat.
2. Little Witch Academia
1 season | 25 episodes
Watch on: Netflix
Akko is all guts and no glory, stumbling her way through magical education at Luna Nova Academy. It’s Hogwarts minus the elitism and with 100% more explosions. Wacky, endearing, and all about finding magic in the effort, even when you suck at it.

Film | 1h 42min
Watch on: Apple TV, Vudu
Mary stumbles upon a power-up flower, and suddenly she’s the chosen one at a wizarding school. Now, with zero clues and all the power, she’s up against some evil Brits and saving a dude in distress. Classic klutz to witch glow-up, but with a steep learning curve.
4. The Familiar of Zero
4 seasons | 48 episodes
Watch on: Apple TV
Louise is so bad at magic that she ends up summoning a teen named Saito as her familiar. He’s over this whole Isekai gig; she treats him like trash, but ~romance! A turn-off-your-brain kind of circus of Hogwarts-esque drama, scheming mages, and saucy fanservice.

5. Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches
1 season | 12 episodes
Watch on: Crunchyroll, Funimation
High school but make it magic with a weirdly specific curse. Swapping kisses with Yamada means swapping bodies and triggering witchy powers that turn everyone’s life into a hormonal, supernatural mess. Hilarious, chaotic and surprisingly heartfelt teen drama.
6. Flying Witch
1 season | 22 episodes
Watch on: Crunchyroll
This is as close as it gets to a documentary on witch life if witches were real and also really into agriculture. Makoto brings spellwork to the countryside, and the most excitement you’ll get is maybe turning a radish into, well, a slightly bigger radish.

7. Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina
1 season | 12 episodes

Elaina’s on a witchy gap year. She’s everywhere, sees every town’s drama, and does a spectacular job of watching it hit the fan with a “not my circus, not my monkeys” attitude. If you want a hero, tough luck. Here for magic lessons across cultures? She’s your witch.
8. Grimoire of Zero
1 season | 12 episodes
Watch on: Prime Video
Zero is a witch with subzero patience, and her muscle is a giant tiger-man who’s basically a walking fur coat with attitude. They’re after a book that’s trouble with a capital T, bickering all the way. It’s magic, mayhem, and a bit of “will they, won’t they” 👀.

9. Witch Craft Works
1 season | 12 episodes
Watch on: Crunchyroll
High school is hard enough without having to worry about being attacked by every witch in a 50-mile radius. Thankfully, Ayaka’s there to keep Takamiya safe in a slightly terrifying manner. It was about time we saw a girl toss fireballs to protect her man.
10. Burn The Witch
2 seasons | 4 episodes
Watch on: Crunchyroll
London, but with fire-breathing dragons and badass witches keeping the peace. It’s all in a day’s work for our spell-slinging duo, Ninny and Noel: save the city, look cool doing it, and maybe ride a dragon. Slick, quick, and doesn’t overstay its welcome.
11. Witch Hunter Robin
1 season | 26 episodes
Watch on: Crunchyroll, Funimation
Robin’s not a sparkly magical girl. She’s out there hunting witches with the enthusiasm of a tax auditor, thoroughly and without mercy. But what if she’s not so different from those she’s chasing? An dark, existential smackdown in Y2K goth gear.
12. Tweeny Witches
1 season | 40 episodes
Watch on: N/A
Arusu crashes into a world that looks like Halloween threw up, where magic’s gone sideways, and she’s way too stoked about sorting that mess out. It’s a chaotic good vs. magical evil in an underrated, fast-paced, and gloriously nuts lil’ anime.
13. Izetta: The Last Witch
1 season | 12 episodes
