I was going to complain about how stupid this was but that price point isn't bad

At least they didn't make it a battery-powered vibrating broom, like that one for the Harry Potter franchise.

As cheap as this Ghibli-endorsed broom may be, many cosplayers may decide to just buy an ordinary wooden broom and a red ribbon to replicate Kiki's broom at a cheaper cost.

The price isn't too bad. I was expecting the broom to be like $40 or something.

Aw, but that broom's too old, can't I use the one I made myself?
(And why no janitor push-broom?)

A broom is called that because the plant tradionally used for the tool is called "broom", not straw as that is actually too soft to be practically used for sweeping for any length of time.

I have one in my shed, but Ghibli didn't know that till now. I sat on it and tried to get it to fly like Kiki, but all I did was blow a fart at which I gave it up for a fail. Thankfully the next door neighbour was away.
