This series features an original character, Ayumi, who appears in each episode, who will share deep interactions with Doremi and her friends, leading to heartwarming moments that are a familiar theme in the Ojamajo Doremi series. Ojamajo Doremi: Heartwarming Theater is a five episode Flash animation spin-off series produced for the Ojamajo Doremi 20th Anniversary Thanks Festival crowdfunding campaign in 2020. The story is based off Ojamajo Doremi Story Picture Book: The Best Present. This mini-series was exclusively released to Camp-fire crowdfunding backers on Blu-ray, distributed early March 2021.

This is a cute and colourful special that's well worth 25 minutes of your time. The story takes place during the time of Motto Ojamajo Doremi and shows the encounters of the various witch apprentices with a young girl named Ayumi. Each of these encounters lets you see the personalities of the witches. My personal favourite is Aiko's episode, in which she does an improvised dance in the rain to cheer up Ayumi, but the other four also get their time to shine. The animation is done in flash, but it doesn't look bad. The style is pretty different from other Doremi media, it's very round andcolourful, drawn in pastel tones. Other than that, I don't have that much to say about this special. If you are a Doremi fan and digging through obscure OVAs like these, you've found one of the better ones.

Ojamajo Doremi Heartwarming Theater is a pretty good, short supplement to the Motto! season of the anime. Each episode tells a story about a recurring little girl who the Ojamajos all help out as they bump into her. Each one has a moral and they're very short, at only five minutes each; this equates to about a single episode of anime, which is good if you need a short bonus for the season/series. Each of the girls has their own adventure with mostly in-character moments. Each episode is about a specific moral, lesson, or just a simple message that can be applicable to anyone, regardless ofage, just like the series. The only real issue is that some of these feel off-beat and don't correspond to the character's personality at times; unfortunately, the last two episodes ditch the focus on a specific character, leaving two without significant stories. However, the story with how they continually run into the little girl is a nice touch and pulls together a sweet moral of how even small things have impact. 7/10.
