The influence of Studio Gibli works particularly "Kiki's Delivery Service" on "Mary and the Witch's Flower" is quite evident, yet the latter is not a Studio Gibli piece, but the movie has it's own twists one won't find in a Studio Gibli work.

Both are wonderfully animated children's movies featuring witchcraft with a European inspired setting. They share a similar artistic style which makes sense given the similar premises and given Studio Ponoc's origins as a spin-off of Studio Ghibli. Both the protagonists experience great character growth over the course of the films and have the traits of adventurousness, curiosity, and being strong-willed. Both of these films are instant classics and must-watches for any fan of magical girls or young female protagonists.
Both films have similar art style and animation, also both have a similar sense of adventure and focus on magic and witchcraft. Also, the films have a teenage girl as a protagonist, as well as similar elements, such as a flying broomstick and a black cat.

Both animes are about witches and the main character is female featuring a black cat in both. Both very well told and if you enjoyed watching one, chances are you will enjoy watching the other.

Both revolve around broomstick-flying girls with charming manners and enchanting appearances.
I'm glad that a lot of former Ghibli members united in Studio Ponoc to carry on the exceptional look of their animations and universally appealing screenplays, we can't thank them enough.
These two movies have similar themes where magic comes to play with phenomenal female leads.
