Oh silly Nico. I know she's trying to help Morihito at school but using magic wasn't the right idea, at least in public. If anything, she did make a big impression at school.

On another note, it was cool to see Morihito beat up bullies in this show. But yeah, maybe Nico should cool it off with the usage of magic.

Ok I might’ve been too harsh on this series, 2nd episode is way better than the first to me. Nico and Morihito starting school together livens things up and Nico’s new friends are hilarious, Kara, voiced by Takahashi Rie had me over here dying. She’s been on such a crazy run lately! But she’s not alone, the whole class is so silly and I love how they just accept a witch and ogre like it’s no big deal 😂 this should be really fun going forward.

Felt like the author wanted to break the record for the most references in an episode in this one. We had DBZ, HXH, Fruits basket, Saiki K and many more lol. At this point the teacher might as well just come out and say she’s into manga and is an otaku because the class literally has two OP supernatural beings there, I think you reading shoujo is the least of your worries lmao. She’s gonna be fun though.

The cat was always gonna come out the bag, but the two of them not even lasting a DAY before everyone found out their secrets is hilarious. I’m really happy for Moi though since he had no friends as a kid because of his powers, now everyone’s cool with he and Nico because they can do cool shit, bro genuinely looks so relieved.

Good episode, hopefully they build on it well! Yoasobi OP is amazing 😩

This episode was even funnier than the first one. I can't believe the whole class is filled with uniquely empty-headed, easygoing moron types—but they’re all good kids.

The otaku teacher killed me with laughter during the Gon reference! How many references did they even throw into this show? What is this, the next Gintama?!

Sometimes Nico’s idiocy annoys me, but that’s just how she is, so I can’t really hate her for it. Still, oh man—how delusional can a girl get? Like after the OP and that daydream confession scene... but both were hilarious nonetheless.

The gags in the classroom were hilarious especially the references like how MC turned into Gon Freecss or with a very muscular arm ahaha also it went full Doctor Strange mode when the gravity got switched and the teacher entered the room, I love this kind of effect.

Anyway that was some nice development too now everyone knows that Nico is a witch and that Otogi is an ogre, anyway they sure love their powers I mean how awesome it would be to be able to fly at school thanks to her power ahaha

Moi being fully prepared to be an outcast only to be seen as the (second) coolest person in their class instead made me smile so much. Forget the magic and oni strength, Class 3 is amazing just for how welcoming (and weird) they are.

Also, the students who pretended to be DBZ characters the nanosecond they could fly had the objectively correct mindset. Sorry, I don't make the rules.

"Teacher class 3 is flying"
Their secrets lasted as long as you expected. The classmates are really nice and welcoming. Nico's friends Kara was really fun, random characters were delivering amazing one liners. Nico's tricks are always fun. The comedy is really landing. Fitted in so many anime references. Excellent episode even better than first one.
Only thing that is not going well is Nicos wild fantasies.

This was my anticipated one this season and so far it's been amazing. Easily my favourite.

ED song is really great, visuals aren't as gorgeous as the OP. Which is probably best one of the year so far.

Fun episode. Loved Morihito beating up those delinquents, who were waiting 4 the girls outta the diner, Morihito is as protective as the stalker he is. Loved Nico playing around with her magic within the classroom like it's nothing. Let's augment this bro's left arm real quick, let's augment this bro's head real quick, let's augment this bro's cowlick real quick and turn him into a Gon reincarnation, what are you doing witch, like come on. Slow it down a bit, cuz it ain't no joke. Let's say, truck-kun suddenly decided to reincarnate a classmate of yours to an isekai but you're low on mana, now what? You feel me?

That aside, that end-scene where Morihito picked up the truck while it was falling as if it's a piece of cake, was cool as heck. Excited to see more of what they're both gonna be up, but so far, Nico really getting on my nerves, while i'm really loving Morihito. Might drop, might not, nevertheless, i only hope for Nico to dial her energy quite a bit, cuz although they're having fun and all, it's gonna be real bad if an tragic accident were to suddenly occur while Nico's playing magic, cuz no mana left, so dial it down, thank you. Listen to your big brother Morihito, and everything's gonna turn out alright, guaranteed.

I can't wait Miyao Nemu debut in anime. I think she is will be my favorite character in this series🫶🏻

I like Minami Kara as character too. She is so expressive

I don't know how many I watched the opening scene of Witch Watch since last week. I turn on the loop feature on youtube every day. The opening song and opening visuals are great and suitable both.

Another great episode. Definitely a lot funnier than the last episode.

The classroom scene where Nico was trying to increase the size of Moi's eraser was so stupid. Moi looked like a fricking bobble-head. Nico's friends are pretty funny, especially Kara. Plus, she's voiced by Rieri, life is awesome guys.

Overall, great episode and I'm excited for the next one.

5/5

Wow, this show is such a pleasant surprise, I enjoyed episode 1 but thought that maybe that was just a one off, but no, episode 2 was even better, I'm still not sure how I feel about the animation, but I do love how crisp/sharp it is, it doesn't look blurry at all, overall amazing episode.

I'm loving this! They even included an otaku teacher, who, although she can't beat the goddess Mayuri, is so great to see more of those teachers who like what we like.



Also, the class is a blast. They are in a good place.



The ending song was so good... But the opening? Damn Ayase and Lilas! You did it again!

What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway).

And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea).

Nico and Morihito have entered school! Honestly I'm glad this show didnt try and have them cover up their identities. Just right away telling everyone, no need for fake drama of them hiding to get discovered later. Morihito definitely wanted it to stay a secret but Nico couldn't help herself. Trying to enlarge Morihito during the class introductions was funny, she kept missing so badly. Leading to everyone thinking he was one of those weird students. Nico turning herself huge kinda let the cat out of the bag about her powers. No denying what's right in front of them. All the manga references during that segment made me laugh too. Especially since their homeroom teacher is a huge otaku so she made a lot of the references. After everyone found out Nico is a witch things went pretty smoothly. I'm glad to see she's made two friends already in Kara and Kukumi. They seem like nice girls whom Nico can have fun with. All going to a nice diner after school, Nico talking about Morihito was sweet. She wants to keep him all to herself telling the girls basically the opposite of how he really is. Which he got to show off that ogre strength catching that flying truck. Nico using her magic to help everyone in class fly was pretty cool. Morihito having to reveal his own secret turned out pretty well. Its nice that the class is so understanding.

Another fun episode and better than before. Nico who initially wanted to help morihito and ended up making a lot of mistakes until his magic hit him. As usual nico is very silly in using his magic and everyone in his class finally knows that he is a wizard.

When they found out that the activities in his class were free, everyone decided to play with magic. Everyone had fun with nico's magic until a truck fell from above and was held by morihito.

Yeah uh sorry but the jokes just ain’t funny to me. Like I get it doesn’t have to be as good as the old one or whatever, but it still feels like it’s trying way too hard with the slapstick and meta stuff. Wish it would just let the characters bounce off each other more and go with the flow instead of throwing gags at my face every two seconds.

The references were fun though, I guess,

The ED song is nice as well, but it’s just a bunch of still images so there’s not really much to say. The OP's at least got more going on

these episodes are so hilarious fr there's not a single character that isn't funny… like everyone’s got their own lil moment and it just works
i love how their classmates were just like “ok cool” and accepted them, no drama—aside from a few ppl i feel like that’s how it’d go irl too
morihito’s just being super overprotective of nico but that’s kinda expected from him atp
also when nico says “moi-chan”… pls it’s SO cute i can’t

That entire thing with the size changes cracked me so hard. When she accidentally grew giant-sized was just icing on the cake. But really, these kids are just cool with anything aren't they? Must be bored! ROFLMAO
But her talking him down so her new friends wouldn't get TOO interested was cute too, especially as he clobbered those creeps outside. LOL

The comedy for this episode outdid the previous one. It had me laughing more often, not only when we got the amusing references to other popular works like DBZ and Fruits Basket, but it seeing how Nico kept using her magic to solve things, which brought chaos instead, was indeed hilarious.

Still, Morihito's worries about not wanting the class to find out about her witch identity weren't needed after all as the whole class accept Nico with open arms. not only did she get two nice friends (One voiced by the awesome Rie Takahashi) who took her to a diner for a nice meal, but the whole class spent one lesson having fun flying around all thanks to Nico's magic. It was also here that they found out about Morihito's identity as an ogre and they welcomed that without any hesitation.

The ED song was pretty nice and matched up with the visuals, but the OP remains one of my favourites for this season. =)

As a manga reader who knows how good this series gets, I also felt episode 2 is better than the very beginning. The anime adaptation runs at a more relaxed pace than I imagined it would, so I had to adjust myself slightly to its tempo, but I also think the very beginning doesn’t foretell just how hilarious and lovable this is at its peak later on. It’s the funniest manga I’ve ever read and maybe my favorite core cast of anything, too. You are going to love Kanshi, Nemu, Keigo, and the rest when they start getting screen time.

Only other thing I’d say is unless it went over my head, I don’t think there was a reference to Fruits Basket (the manga). Fruits Basket is a real game that the manga is named after. But either way there were tons of references.

What the hell is going on im just laughing for the whole episode haha

I cant with all these anime references and all the random stuffs happening, the names of the characters and spells are just straight up what they are, also making it funnier. And I like this Class already, they're cool and fun.

I love how Nico is just watching Morihito like a pet, well he's technically her familiar.

Feeling really happy seeing people saying its improved from episode 1 cause this still hasn't reached the good early parts, so many of the chapters they show off in the opening and in general once all the characters are introduced and bouncing off each other is when Witch Watch actually reaches its strengths. I also forgot how refreshing it was that the series just speeds through the whole hiding their identities thing and its just an immediate reaction of this is cool. Series really benefits from just allowing them to act out in the open so it can start to truly get zany going foreword.

Also the actress playing Nico is great, I'm glad they cast someone that hasn't been in a billion things already its refreshing to not recognize someone in a lead role after I feel like anime has been so heavily typecast in the last decade.

My first thought was that Class 3 is such a bunch of weirdos that a witch and an ogre won't stick out that much, lol. Well, their identities are already out and so far it's a good thing if anything(except for the other classes xD)

This was even more fun than the first episode. Love me some zany school setting. Based on the supernatural nature it was clear that this would go beyond Sket Dance in that regard. First impression didn't disappoint and there's still plenty of new characters we haven't met yet who can add to the craziness.

I'm also a big fan of animanga related references, especially the battle shounen ones. And these seem to be here in abundance.
