Very funny start with the clothes segment.
That was a decent short fight at the end, and now we got a new member.

Wtf was with that OP, lol..?x'D

Great episode once again, and we finally get our third stooge MC in Kan-chan at the end of the episode, though kinda strange he was fighting in a dog mask, lol..

Nico was so happy with the compliments that she forgot she was half-transparent, haha! And that dog was really terrifying ngl, was it a pitbull??0n03
The more they split, the cuter they are, that's the beauty of magic, lol!x'D

4 little Nicos, so cute lol
A new character, from the ending it seems like Kanshi and Morihito will get along (at least in the future), but since he wanted to test Morihito, maybe it'll take some time for them to trust each other
Another great episode!

The doubling spell causing halving of intelligence was cute and funny.

But that ending bit, WAIT A MINUTE she can have more than 1 familiar? Is this a reverse harem now?

Nico's cloning magic is funny with the drawback of the clones getting younger/smaller more and more with each split. We have a new character introduction as well, Kanshi, who seems to also be Nico's familiar.

This episode was absolutely wonderful! Neko is *completely* focused on her relationship with Mohihito 😂 while Mohihito is entirely focused on protecting Neko—which honestly makes the anime so wholesome and entertaining.

We also got introduced to two new characters this episode: Neko’s mom and Kanshi. Looks like next week we’ll dive deeper into Kanshi's background, and I’m really looking forward to that!

Also, the opening was super fun! I loved the fresh idea of Neko casting magic on the OP itself—it gave me major *Gintama* vibes.

As for Neko’s "split magic" trick, it was absolutely adorable—I *loved* it. It actually reminded me of Tribbie from *Honkai: Star Rail*.

And this one frame I screenshotted had me laughing so hard. Neko is seriously hopeless—her love for Mohihito is beyond anything I expected 😂

I have a question, is the name of the third chapter of the episode (maigo no inu to ame no beat) a reference to the song by AKFG with the same name(the op for Tatami Galaxy)?

Sad to see they already ran out of budget for the OP in episode 3 :((

Well they do have to animate it every time I guess....

Witch Watch just keeps getting better! I honestly wasn’t expecting it to be this funny when I started watching, but the comedy totally caught me off guard in the best way. The characters are chaotic in the most lovable way. It's such a cute mood lifter. ☺️

The "unfinished" OP was a funny surprise 😆

Hahaha, more useless magic. Truly, what's the point of making a second you if it takes half of your strength and IQ.

It's strange how granting the ability to fly to multiple people had no after-effects, while making things lighter did.

Weird magic in this universe...

A new character and he's also familiar?

Funny episode again.

Another funny episode.

We got a new character addition in Kan!
I need somebody who can love me at my worst
No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth
'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first
And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

If you stay forever, let me hold your hand
I can fill those places in your heart no else can
Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah
I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim

The raw opening + Nico trying to fix it with magic was so interestingly funny haha

The fashion magic actually makes sense, but what if the same picture has the backside too? can it replicate it then?

Nico with the split-smol-clone magic didn't really help at all, the only thing it did was create more annoyance, still funny tho haha

And the Dog, the moment it pulled out a wind fan I just knew it was a Tengu.. is that how a modern Divine Dog looks like!? I was just laughing the whole time lol

Witches + Yokai, unhinged comedy and other work references, Im actually even hooked now!

Nico hijacking the incomplete OP is just so this show lols, but it's quite the passion project for such a show as this.

Nico's mother Ibuki foretelling the disaster...of dogs and raindrops, while her daughter is just swooning her love to the muted boy that he continues to deny her. And using magic to hide the imitation of a clothing that only is wearable halfway because it's see-through, if Moi likes the clothes she wears, sure...just not that lols. But to see Grandma's hand-me-downs being so intriguing to Moi, old European vintage clothes sure is his thing...yeah.

At long last, Nico's items arrive to Moi's house (though much of it is classic manga like KochiKame and Golgo 13), though alongside with Ibuki's message for him, while she's out having her sabbatical in rural Japan. But Nico having the cheek to use magic and clone herself in two (while even her intelligence is cut in half), more clones just does not serve any purpose moving boxes into the house, but what the hey lols that Moi still has to do things himself. And turns out...the prophecy from an unleashed dog pouncing on her came true, though Moi did his part to protect her as and when the disaster will fade.

But if the unleashed dog wasn't the disaster, the rain forcing Nico to come out and get red beans to replenish her magic and Moi asking her to come under his umbrella for extra protection, it rings true that someone has been stalking the two, which Moi is more than capable to face against...and to see that it's crow tengu familiar Kanshi Kazamatsuri, he's all the more a protector role, just like Moi.

Will Kanshi be a detriment against Moi, time will tell.

Haha the O.P for this episode really threw me off, until I relaised Nico stuffed up the magic for it and that's why it was unfinished.

They started the show by breaking the 4th wall through the Opening scene, and it was so good!

Nico is genuinely funny. Like, she knows how to make good jokes.

Did Moi just mention "Jounouchi" in the post credit scene? lol

The OP got me for a second there, couldn't figure out why there was text in the upper left and right of the screen. Then I realized we were seeing storyboards, in-betweens, etc. Very clever to make it seem like Nico's magic backfired and messed up the opening. This show is super comfy and loaded with charm. Makes the start of the week a lot easier.

LOL I'm genuinely enjoying this anime so much. The doublin mahou made Nico so adorable. This anime is definitely up there in terms of comedy of the likes of hinamatsuri, grand blue, prison school and I thought comedy was dead... but apparently only in the west.

Ehh what a drop off from the first two episodes :( Even the first part which was better seemed like a, "hey lets give doujin writers some ideas" than any real comedy. Already hate Tengu guy, I was expecting it from the OP and ED but, ugh, really didn't want to see this become a love triangle. :(

I can't even say the name of the anime anymore because all I hear in it is Nico, was the scriptwriter too lazy to use his brain? why do they hire an amateur to create the script for any anime? it's impressive, really impressive
and yeah, the anime is crap too
avoid creating any fantasy with romance, you guys are terrible at creating both genres

Last episode currently available on Netflix 🫡 and now we got Nico's mom working in ciphers. Have to wonder what the mom's up to if the daughter is freely doing magic things. The OP has become a vibe for sure.

If only I had a pajama girl friend in the morning like that 🙏 of course the answer to all problems is magic. This show's love of Hunter Hunter is so adorable.

Let them date already. Clothing scene is peak. And the Doublit Loli Brigade is also cute.

Not gonna lie, didn't find this episode nearly as funny as the first two. The funniest bit was the "unfinished" opening credits (not being sarcastic, it genuinely put a smile on my face) but it went downhill from there for me. Really hope this show doesn't lose its comedy momentum. 😔

That was an interesting gag with the OP, but I think it would have been better to have tied it into the ep itself. I can't remember every chapter of the manga off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's one with a related gag.
