If it had used that OVA episode as part of the regular season it would have some more room to develop what they had. Yes, what they had.

The next few chapters (as in the FOUR currently released) reveal a little more and makes me even more curious about what happened when they were kids.

The only complaint I have about Witch Craft Works is that there really is no chemistry between the ordinary boy who was torn from his normal life and thrown into the supernatural world and the stone-faced yandere with a one-track mind...oh sorry, I meant Takamiya and Ayaka. I don't get my knickers in a knot about this because they just haven't gotten to the point in the manga where their childhoods are revealed and the true link between them.

And can we come up with a new criticism of Takamiya other than "HURR DURR HES PUSSY DURR"? I wouldn't become Batman if I was just thrust into danger like that and neither would most of those who spout this crap. I get that people like strong, confident characters, but when I try to tell people that when you adapt PART of a (somewhat) YOUNG, on-going manga that itself hasn't drastically developed a character you're not going to get a Goku clone all I get are *see above quote*.

i would like to remind everyone that a few mins ago he decided to give his life and Ayaka life up for the sake of the town.

I'm pretty sure that the not wanting to kiss her was just because of principle.

also, as long as they don't change how they do anything, i would like to see a 2nd season.

Animation was one of the few reedeming point, but characters sucked really much.

MC no spine, annoying, kagari only got a look of a cold blooded woman with huge tits and no spice bah.
Dunno why you consider it the best anime, there are many who are superior by far.
At least it's not some boring generic ecchi harem anime. Honoka has a lot of spine considering he would do anything for Ayaka and his family. Ayaka is just very reserved that doesn't mean she has "no spice". She is a million times better than those stupid, bratty, bossy, annoying, abusive tsundere female characters.

Takamiya didn't know anything about magic and was then thrust into magic by his bodyguard, so if your issue was that he didn't fight then I don't think you know what a bodyguard is. He then trained and was incredibly brave. He was even willing to take his own life for the sake of the entire city. What would have been spine to you, performing the pain olympics routinely?

Kagari wasn't cold blooded. She was serious because she was protecting Takamiya, who she loves. What the fuck's even cold about that? I hardly think a girl that regularly bursts into flames is lacking "spice" either. What even is spice? You just sound angry because she isn't a shouty little loli like the creature in your icon. God forbid she doesn't look and act like she's 12 years old, right?

It's only got a few chapters after the anime ended, but it seems like there are going to be some major revelations about Honoka and Ayaka's childhoods soon (meaning the plot is moving at a decent pace). His third seal is broken (so that's roughly a seal per 10 chapters?) but there's no way to estimate the time between the third and fourth seal (meaning it could be soon or faaaaaaaaaar away).

In other words, it probably won't run forever, but I estimate that it'll have a decent run.

As previously mentioned there aren't that many chapters after what is covered in the anime (it's at 32 chapters at the moment and Weekend ended at 27). Chapter 28 deals with the aftermath and onwards is well, onwards into more development.

Maybe in a few years since it's monthly. Hopefully we'll get more development and mysteries will be revealed so when/if it comes around people will be pleased with it.

27/32? Damn. That sounds like more than 2 years before we can see a season 2 :(

Well hey, that gives you some incentive to keep up with the manga, eh?

Chapter 28 shows the results of the fight with Weekend (and Takamiya's turning into a badass! ...at least physically. It explains part of why at least he doesn't remember anything about Ayaka),
Chapter 29 and 30 are pretty much filler with a tiiiiiny bit of plot mixed in,
and Chapters 31 and 32 seem to be beginning to the next major arc.

New chapter in about a week or so!

Oh wow, you sure like to attack people based on baseless assumption? Good job 13 years old kid inside.
From spice I mean romantic situation between MC and her, does she do anything to make her love mutual? No, she looks like a mother protecting a child.
Last episode, at least a kiss should be granted for a couple, but no, a crappy result to make you fan of pure characters (especially virgin) satisfied.

You people like to feel superior: "You like harem shitty animes that are popular and mainstream, I am far better than you!"
Go to your cave and inform yourself before saying to other "OMG You are a lolicon!". It is even easy to search what character is from my avatar in forum (Working! is the anime), but omg, "I must criticize your tastes, I AM BETTER".

Now go to rewatch this really mediocre anime if you defend this, and shut your mouth, everyone is free to give an opinion.

Well, it is hard to remember that Popura isn't loli. "I'M NOT SMALL!".

He did point out some truths though, such as that Honoka isn't spineless. I mean, he does stuff like try to offer his eyes then his life in order to save Ayaka and the city. And I don't believe that Honoka not kissing her on the lips was to satisfy "virgins" at all, it just shows that Honoka is pure. Remember when Kazane said that Evermillion doesn't like impurities? Have we seen Honoka be greedy, lusty, etc.?

From what I've heard this anime was announced for adaptation FIFTEEN CHAPTERS AGO. You know, aaaaaaaall the way back when Ayaka merged with Medusa?

HOLY &*$#! How do people do something like that? I mean come on, that's back when it was bi-monthly AND had even less development! UGH

The manga has only 5 chapters (about to be 6) past the anime and from 31 onwards it seems like some mysteries will be unraveled. Hopefully that pesky chemistry and development I wanted will happen.

Oops, almost forgot. The reason Ayaka is so obsessed with Honoka is that he (the current he) showed up in her childhood dreams when she couldn't remember anything and told her to find him in the future. Hopefully we'll get an explanation soon (likely enough).

Well in the manga you see more "romantic" moments
imo i think kagari is pretty sweet , i mean she dosent know how to
act like a normal kid she shows her love in her protection

there is many kinds of love ... but imo i think it will be evolved to a proper
realtionship between em later in the manga




Well i really can´t say i care , but... shit happends

The only thing that the anime changed was the last scene of the last episode. In the manga Tanpopo (the cat girl) got left behind at the Kagamiya house while the other Medusa girls went to train. They did not attack Kagari and Honoka like in the last anime scene because they weren't together.

The other four Medusa girls attack again in chapter 30 and also send Tanpopo a letter beforehand, which may lead to them reuniting in the future (but not yet).

I hope they do. This anime was realy good in all respects, I expected less of it. Realy harmonious and fun. Even while something was left out. The characters are hilarious and cute. I love both voicing and grapics and ending is a masterpiece by itself :D

Do you even know how many sub par/below average stuff J.C. staff has? probably not, otherwise you wouldn't be saying this.

The animation was good, if you you don't like the art style it's your problem.
The art style of the manga is way more detailed but if they animated that it would cost them millions more, so it's understandable.

It sold way more than they expected, they even said they were shocked by the popularity and how much it's selling, so a second season is really high, after about 2 years for more manga material.

I am speaking in my opinion and I thought they were trying too hard to be humour. I didnt say the animation was bad since I know J.C staff makes one of the best animation but the series is a let down in terms of character,plot.

It pretty much sold a little more than the average number needed for a sequel.
BD sales -> 4.758 copies average & the number for an estimated profit for sequel is 3-4.000 copies. And they really were suprised by those sales. Now as far for the material if u conclude that 1st season adapted 27 manga volumes then for a 2nd season we need about 1 year or a 1 year & a half. (without knowing how big are the next volumes).
Personal opinion animation was very good - characters was o.k with some flaws & the plot needed to be more tight. Not 1 of the best shows that u would say WOW, but it was very entertaining. I have seen worst titles getting sequels so i don't believe it will stay like this!

even tough i feelt it was over abit to fast
was expecting it to be 24 episodes " it vould have been much better that way"

but its still awsome imo


so what do you think ?


I definitely think it deserves a S2 but honestly I reckon it was best being left to 12 episodes. I mean with the shorter ones they are obviously over quicker but if the plot is good they hold your attention better because each episode is packed with more awesome stuff...

The anime and ova adapted around 30 chapters.
The manga has 48 chapters currently and is entering a major arc so maybe in a year or so.

Insanely late reply but there likely isn't going to be a second season. There was one wild rumor that it'd get a second season after Prison School got it's second season but with that being delayed who knows what the actual truth is.
