| Great start to the story of a witch. Amazing animation as well. Elaina is cute. |
 |
| Flan was nice. Wish we will see her more. Elaina parents seems cool. Hope it gets more fun next episode when she travels |
| The first episode for this anime is surprisingly good. The mc is ok and the visual for this anime is quite good actually. Probably my top 3 anime for this season. I really recommend it for everyone who loves anime with a lighter tone. Can't wait for the next ep to come out next week. |
| I honestly didn't expected that I'm gonna like this. It's surprisingly good and the heroine is so cute. Very fcking nice pilot episode. |
| One of my most anticipated shows for the Fall 2020, Majo no Tabitabi has premiered its first episode. Ladies and gentlemen, we can confirm that this will be a JOYFUL TIME! Already our MC of the show, Elaina, can warm my heart with her charming smile and her white-hair design. Of all the coming-of-age adventure shows that I watched so far this gave me higher promises for a show that has a beautiful first episode. Flan training Elaina was such a good example of how you train your student, and if you watched the anime you know what I'm saying. I love the scene where Elaina broke down to Flan and admits her true feelings which I almost cried at. In the end, Elaina is now a proclaimed witch and set to begin her travel into a world unknown. I'm sold and hopefully by the end, I came for the adventure and be left with the feels. Solid 1st ep. |

| Best parents 2020 |
| That was amazing for me, I loved that. Definitely my favorite so far this season besides Jujutsu Kaisen. I like that recent anime has the main character's not be dead and Elaina's parents are fantastic to boot. Elaina's training with Fran was amazing and teaching her to be humble. Ngl, I kinda gotten sad when Fran was leaving. In just one episode she managed to make me like her this much hopefully we see more of her soon. Overall, that was fantastic and Elaina is a great character so far too. I have high expectations for this show hopefully it delivers, if it does it will definitely be my favorite this season. |
 |
| This atmosphere kinda remind me of Atelier series. Elaina is pretty much like Wilbell from Escha & Logy. As for the first episode, it was quite good. Looking forward for the next episodes. |
 |
| I watched this show on a whim but I’m glad I did, didn’t expect it to be that good! The animation looks great as well. |
| Great and promising first episode. I'm really excited for this. Elaina's already a witch and her first steps into her adventure I had a feeling Flan sensei was hiding something when she took Elaina as her apprentice, yet turned out Flan had nothing but good intentions in the end. Can't wait for the next episode! |
 |
| Cute and great animations . But I want more Yuri in upcoming episodes |
 |
| Fantastic, easily one of the best premieres of the season. Probably right behind Tonikaku Kawaii for me. The production is great, the art is amazing, animation is nice and even the small battle scenes were very nicely done. Love Elaina already, she's great. Kinda felt for her when she cried but I guess she did need the lesson to learn to say no instead of always enduing hoping things will get better. I'm kinda thinking Elaina's Mom is the witch she read about, her parents were great though and her Dad crying as she left with her Mom putting on the straight face instead was a little funny since in my experience it's always the other way around. Fran-sensei was awesome too, I thought the training would go on for a while but they still wrapped it up nicely and I assume the rest of the anime is gonna be about Elaina's adventures which should be fun. Really looking forward to more, Fall 2020 is lit so far. |
 |
| Amazing start, good animation and art, I really like this kind of series, probably episodic I think. |

Swagernator said: her mom is that which she read about ain't she ? . That's my theory. Elaina's mom is Nike. Her mom seems awfully erudite, and seems to know a bit about witches. She also seemed pretty supportive of Elaina's desire to travel, unlike the father. She probably even knew Fran (Wouldn't be surprised if she taught Fran). That's probably why she trusted Fran to teach her daughter. |
| Well, that was pointless. If it was a story someone told you instead of "ooo shiny" animation, you would ask "why did you just waste 20 minutes of my time talking about nothing". |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| That was a pretty great first ep. Looking to be a real charming anime. The anime was pretty nice as well. The 3 year time skip is curious. You would think they would want to show us her just starting off traveling, but maybe this will be more episodic with her visiting different places. Obvy the concept of traveling makes me think of Kino's Journey. I highly doubt this will be as thought provoking and philosophical as Kino (at least the OG anime and manga adaptation), but it could still be a very charming travel & explore anime and be a great watch. |
| Really well animated and a solid episode overall. Sensei squeezing the snoty attitude out of Elaina lol. Seems like Elaina's got some great parents. I've read a bit of the LN and I really really love the world in this. So happy to finally see it animated! |
 |
| That was a whopper of an opening episode, can't wait for more |
| felt very like Arte during the apprenticeship portion tho Elaina has good parents and Fran is a nicer mentor lol the visuals are very nice (even tho sometimes the characters itself can be off) and the trial fight looks amazing. sad that this first episode MIGHT be Fran’s one-off, shes a fun one. |
| Man, the art style looks so clean here and animation was truly impressive as well. I'm not really expecting much "action" from this title but in any case, I hope the studio can keep this level of quality. Overall, lovely start but wish Elaina would have spent one more episode with Flan before leaving. I know this series is about the experiences one gains from journeys but more character build for our MC wouldn't have hurt. Not to mention I will surely miss Flan "ara ara~" sensei. Anyways, looking forward to seeing what adventures Elaina will find herself into. |
| This anime was cute and Elaina is cute and im hooked on this show overall 8/10 great start |
 |
| Pretty damn good surprise, edged out Jujutsu Kaisen as my favorite first episode this season so far. |
 |
| I liked it a lot. I think this is going to be good actually. It's very charming and that was the perfect first episode to set up her adventures. |

| love the first ep, gonna wait for this every week. |
I love K-On, and so should you.  |
| It's actually pretty good but... There are too much events happening on one go, like within 10 minutes, (spoilers, if you watched it you already know) too much things happen, and in the end she's already 18. These events would have been better if it was in 2 or 3 episodes. I don't really get the main character, when things like this are happening, understanding the characters would be good. It would've been better if they dedicated this episode to make us understand the main character before jumping on to big events like this. It just seemed to bother me, like I know that this is just the first episode, I felt like it would've been better if they spent some time on letting us know about Elaina as a child, how she grew up, the Stardust Witch part was ok, but it's actually a very important part. Spending more time on that would've been better. Again, it would've been better if these events happened in in 2-3 episodes. If this is a small series thatn it makes sense. But other than that, it was pretty good, I'm looking forward to this. 6.8/10 or just 7/10 so far. Fine but good. |

| This was so unexpectedly great, I loved this episode. |
 |
Naruto9000 said: The MC is unbearably irritating. I'm dropping this. Says the NARUTO kid, lol. |
| Nothing special, but seems really cute and wholesome. We shall see if it remains like that for long. All in all it gives me nice witchy vibes for spooky season, gonna keep watching |
| I was not expecting the first episode to include a slick fight choreography in a show like this, but I'm not complaining. I like the aesthetic. There were some really nice landscapes in this episode and the color palette is pleasing to look at, my kudos are defintely going to the AD. |
   |
| Whoa, the episode hooked me way more than I anticipated! Went in without really knowing anything other than reading the summary. Finished the episode completely enthralled. Looking forward to seeing where this goes! Neat thing is I literally don't know what to expect next. Whether it ends up being a chill journey or loaded with some action, I'm down either way! |
 |
| as beautiful as i expected this first episode is really a good start to begin with, pretty enchanting character and story |
 |
| During the promotion of the anime the various visuals that came out had fascinated me and I was very curious to see this anime series, in part I am satisfied and in some ways I am not. The backgrounds are nice but not as I imagined them. Chara design is a bit indigestible to me, but I immediately liked the characters and they are also very nice. The narrative wasn't boring after all, but while it was just a prologue to the true story, it showed potential, as they also burned the character of Flan, who proved to be a good character in the short time she had available. The OST was catchy, all that remains is to see the rest of the episodes. Maybe in the future I won't be very objective in regards to this anime series, because I have a soft spot for it, it is better that I notify you first, so you cannot complain later. |
 |
| 7/10 for the first episode. I just hope it stays like this. |
 |
| This is better than i ever expected it to be. I was kinda worried that the anime might be different from the ln but nope. It's all good i guess. Also, it's great to see Elaina's father in the anime. They never actually showed his face in the ln. And it's hillarious to see him crying when Elaina went on her journey xD Totally my favourite from this season. A great introduction to Elaina's journey! |
  Wandering Witch is the best light novel ever! |
