Synopsis

In ancient times, some witches married their familiars, who had taken human form, giving birth to a lineage of ogres. One such ogre is Morihito Otogi, who while appearing completely human, still retains the inhuman strength of his bloodline. Nico Wakatsuki is a young witch and Morihito's childhood friend, but as part of her education, she had to go to the Witches' Holy Land to train and part ways with Morihito.

Years later, just before Morihito's first year of high school, Nico returns home with one goal in mind: to claim him as her familiar. While most witches choose a cat or a bat, Nico has her heart set on Morihito in more ways than one. Although seemingly oblivious to her true feelings, Morihito and Nico end up living together under the same roof with both of Morihito's parents elsewhere. While reluctant at first, Morihito accepts his new role, determined to help Nico seamlessly fit back in with human society and protect her from fated disaster.

Story development is decent in the first half, but goes slow in the second half where it shows more comedy. In the slice of life comedic theme, there are heart touching moments that actually made me cry. Style is similar to classic 2000s anime such as doraemon. which brings the cute comedic style of the anime. The comedy is certainly not for everyone, some of it even feels forced, and its even harder to understand if one watches this without knowing at least some japanese culture and language which is essential for the joke to go through.

An enjoyable comedic watch with some unexpectedly highly emotional ...

Summary
Witch Watch follows Nico, a young witch, and Morihito, her “familiar,” as they build a team of peers with other magical abilities. Season 1 has a fairly straight forward plot at the start, but the second half feels like a filler season. Overall, the story is bland, the characters are generic, and the comedy is not funny. The show isn't horrible, but it's also not particularly good.

bro listen… Witch Watch got less rizz than a baby gronk trying to rizz up livvy dunne with a juice box 💀 the story ain’t unique at all — just your basic “witch messes up spells, ogre cleans up the mess” loop on repeat. predictable from episode one, like you could skibidi toilet your way through it blindfolded and still know what happens next. not even the goofy humour could save it, cuh.

the art style tries to be cute and light, but it ends up looking like a half-finished ohio doodle. sure, it’s bright, but it doesn’t fit the tone — when things are supposed ...
