[WITCH WATCH] Even though some gags have been cut for pacing, it’s been translated into media mix really well… Is it really okay to have such a great anime adaptation!?

Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

Also, the OP is really great, but I’m happy that the ED illustrations are inspired by the comic book cover!

WITCH WATCH Kenta Shinohara Witch’s Return 1 JUMP COMICS

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

The character design is much cuter than in the original.

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I mistakenly thought it was the work of the author of BLEACH until I saw it.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Moi-chan quickly becomes a cynical old-timer otaku who looks down on casual fans and newcomers in a genre she is obsessed with, and she plans dates by choosing Battleship Potemkin as the movie to watch, but it’s her imperfections that make her adorable.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

At this point, Nico doesn’t really know Moichan’s problematic points that well, right?

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

It’s great that there are plenty of references from the original work in the OP.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Thinking about Kan-chan joining next time, it feels quite early.

Also, Keigo, was your first appearance really like this, like a mob character?

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

Keigo was a character who sometimes got the spotlight even in mob scenes.

I wonder if they’ll do the first terrible game episode as well…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

I place my full trust in Hiroshi Ikehara from Purichan.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

I forgot I was a subculture jerk.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

Before showing her unusual side, Moi-chan is just too much of a perfect guy.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m looking forward to when Moi-chan starts to show her true nature.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

The way they expressed the story in the opening of the anime, contrasting with the original manga, was impressive… I thought that was clever.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hurry up and break down, Moi-chan.

17: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The lyrics that frequently use “nano yo” make me happy.

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

For Moi-chan to crumble, we need to at least reach Keigo first.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

The ED’s cook is a bit too lewd.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Quickly talk about denim for 30 minutes.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

Today I watched an anime for the first time and was laughing at the tempo-like style of Ryoichi Koga, but it turns out this is from the same person who did Sket Dance and is a Jump manga…

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the early days, Moi-chan was normal and Nico was female.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are still plenty of nameless people too.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is there a character named Moi-chan who shows an interest in bonsai in the original work?

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m happy with the colors in the original ED.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

The OP’s skating Keigo is so handsome that it really annoys me.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t help but feel that Keigo’s active involvement happened quite a bit later on.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

Moi-chan’s eyes are like marbles, so I laugh.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not hiding the fact that Keigo is a main character in both the OP and ED, but the depiction that makes you think they live together is thoroughly eliminated.

33: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

I like the cut where Nico is doing shubibibibibi.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought the visual direction of the OP was too stylish, and it turned out to be Megumi Ishiya.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m looking forward to talking about denim.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

The voice actors match perfectly, and it’s great!

The side characters are unnecessarily extravagant, and it’s funny.

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It’s way too stylish, but it looks emotional; it’s just a collection of deeply memorable gag episodes…

39: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

“10-soba, 2-8, Sarashina, when dipping into the sauce, it’s so annoying, I’m totally fine with watching Moi-chan again.”

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Moin-chan gets hooked on something, it probably won’t cause too much trouble if it’s cooking…

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think I had installed a go app…

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

At this point, didn’t we have homemade jam and homemade roasted coffee, Moi-chan?

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Before showing her troublesome otaku side, Moi-chan had the image of a perfect superhuman with a motherly disposition.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t believe it’s the same person as Luca, Nico.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I told my sister that Witch Watch is interesting, as expected from a Jump work.

I was staring blankly into the void, wondering why Fengshen Yanyu turned out that way.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

Coffee is something my father became passionate about over 20 years ago, it’s in his blood.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s nice to see Moi-chan and Keigo getting along and having conversations about subculture.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

Speaking of which, I also had some vintage pants that were handed down from my father, right?

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

For some reason, it is not overwhelming when it comes to cooking.

There is a possibility that a switch may suddenly turn on in the future.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

There is love for the original work, right?

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

Get hooked on making soba quickly.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a preference for vintage clothes and coffee, I guess.

The only thing left is simply having high household skills.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Moi-chan gets into making soba, she’s already like a retired salaryman.

58: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Kan-chan is actually quite cool in the OP, isn’t she?

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

I might do the obsession life that Keigo probably half-heartedly got into, like during Denim Round 2, one more time.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

I definitely think Moi-chan will get into bonsai or pottery in her old age.

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Thinking about bread, there’s a possibility that what I’m obsessed with could be on the table for a week.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Moi-chan will open either a soba shop or a cafe that also sells second-hand clothes in the future, right?

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

The OP always causes trouble right from the start.

I’ll end up causing you a lot of trouble, but…

Even so, the lyrics of “I’ll always be by your side” combined with the visuals make it incredibly charming and really great.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

I already make my own yogurt and grind my own coffee…

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

Moi-chan will probably get into teapots in her old age and become the type to bring the ones she finds to an appraisal group.

66: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Other than that, my stomach is completely under control, so I can’t really resist.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

Moi-chan will definitely become super annoying once she starts drinking alcohol.

They look down on people who drink major brands while praising small brewery craft beers.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you only watch the anime’s ending, it feels like Nemu-chan has been like Keigo’s master from the beginning, laughing.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are too many scenes in the OP that I love…

71: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

“I’m sorry, I can’t stop anymore” is probably about love feelings.

This is roughly the situation when Nico messed up with magic.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

Moi-chan seeks difficulties in hobbies and imposes them on others, so she’s really a pain…

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was funny and not good that Keigo was above the staff roll during that performance.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

I learned about it from an anime that had already appeared.

83: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Vintage clothing

Coffee

Wine

Soba making

Ceramics

What should I do? I’m starting to feel like a rich, crappy boss!

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kan-chan is actually quite handsome when he’s not seen in this Shinohara work.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

Maybe if it’s just the usual members going out for a light drink, I think Moiko would be satisfied with a public izakaya (even though it’s quite tasty).

I can easily imagine that Miharu will say something troublesome and it’ll turn into a really annoying conversation.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though they’re just delinquents, their fashion sense is quite stylish.

I’m coordinating my fashion with a consistent style, except for my feet.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s troublesome, but I’m everyone’s dad.

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

At the time of the offering, I was pulled back and looked beautiful.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the beginning, I want you to quickly cover the story until we have all the Keigo characters gathered.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

The animation has really amazing art… I don’t really understand much after this, but it feels good and has turned out well, yeah.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are too many episodes I want to see in the anime, so I’m already looking forward to the second season.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

Show me the denim episode!

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kan-chan may not be the typical handsome guy of today, but he’s the type of good-looking yankee who is generally popular with girls.

Maybe because of my interesting conversations, I’m actually becoming less popular.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

(I remember the story about how I got into a hobby that I could do alone because I didn’t have any friends.)

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kan-chan and Ban-chan’s Yankee couple

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it’s a special occasion, I hope they will also consider making it live-action or a 2.5D adaptation.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is this one season?

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

I recently read an article about the clothes that Moi-chan is wearing.

I realized I had been so particular about this every time…

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

Nico, who lives with four handsome guys, is in a reverse harem situation…

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

The student council president looks the coolest in the anime adaptation.

I feel like Keigo has quietly become super handsome in the anime.

108: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Kan-chan is a typical type who is fun as a friend but gets rejected when it comes to dating.

In manga, it’s not often depicted, but being an extreme spendthrift is quite a negative trait.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I look back at the reactions from the time Kanji was introduced, there are a lot of comments saying that we don’t need a decoy in the share house… and it feels kind of nostalgic.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

On first glance, I thought it might be a reverse harem thing just with the members.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I see the static image of the PV, I feel like the president’s eyes have become bigger.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think Keigo is toned down in the fluffy parts because there’s less need to hide it in anime.

It’s still quite fluffy now, but at the beginning, I was hiding it a bit more for the gimmick.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

To be honest, the author’s artistic skill is so high that most of the main characters end up being beautiful men and women.

It’s really amazing when you think about it since the time of Sket Dance.

119: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It was really just a moment when the love triangle element was found in Kansi…

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

It should be the third season of Shingeki no Kyojin from autumn.

I want you to squeeze it in either next time or the time after that.

121: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It’s cute to have fun at home, but it’s definitely super cute to have fun with female friends, like in that scene with Nico in the opening.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

Now, Kan-chan has a senior from work… Wait, when did they last appear?

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since the time I swapped with little Nico?

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it just ridiculous how that subculture jerk has turned into just a handsome guy with the anime adaptation?

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

By the next time we lived together, Kan-chan was already on Team Niko’s side.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if Momochi will appear in the anime…

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hair is messy.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

Moichan Keigo is so handsome that he can’t be overshadowed by any negative factors.

131: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In the second half of the OP, it’s really just the handsome profiles of Kan-chan and Keigo…

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because a terrible face that cannot be covered up just with a facade, not limited to Keigo, easily comes out…

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a discovery that if Kan-chan stays quiet, he looks handsome.

Conversely, if Mio-chan and Keigo start to move, I wonder if the terrible quality of a bad episode would improve somewhat…

139: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The chairman probably looks like a flashy, beautiful person like Reinhard from the original work.

142: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I like Kan-chan, but I don’t want to be a guarantor.

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

The direction and depth of the interesting elements make it really great for a Sunday afternoon anime.

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

Moi-chan, Kanshi, Keigo, and Miharu are all good-looking, so it even feels like a typical otome game like Nico’s…

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kan-chan has some bad tendencies, like falling behind on rent and becoming an ottoman.

147: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Speaking of which, I realized that Miharu’s joining is quite a ways off… after watching the OP and ED.

148: Japan Otaku Reviews

The person with Nico’s voice looks pretty funky.

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m scared that the ottoman might fly away.

151: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

You’re a high school student, so let your parents pay the rent.

When you do that, you’re really going to wear it out, Kan-chan.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kan-chan has a lot of simple drawings, but when it comes to serious moments, he really looks handsome.

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kan-chan is so caring that if she takes in someone who is worse off than herself, she would probably become incredible.

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since I’m trash, I want you to treat me like scrap paper, it’s a line I don’t seem to say anymore but I love it.
