Miyazaki himself appears in the movie. In the scene at the end where the street-sweeper is pointing at the TV and saying “that’s my broom she used,” Miyazaki is in the upper-right corner of the picture looking on. It was probably a joke by one of his animators.
		A “Ghibli Bus” appears in the movie. In the scene where Kiki is almost hit by a bus (approaching Kiki from the left in the picture) when she first comes to the new town, “Studio Ghibli” is written on the side of the bus (not yet in view in this picture). The “Ghibli Bus” also passes behind Kiki while she is questioned by a policeman.
		Ursula’s painting was the work of students at a special school for challenged children. Miyazaki added Kiki’s face and Kazuo Oga, one of the art staff members, also did some touch-ups. It is titled The Ship Flying over the Rainbow.
