The plot is as follows

The anime centers on a girl named Elaina. When she was a kid, she loved reading books. And among all the books she read, there was a series called 'Niike's Adventure', which was her favorite. It was a collection of short stories about the witch Niike's adventures around the whole world, based off of the writer's own life experience. Elaina liked Niike's adventures so much that starting her own adventure became her all life's dream.

Even though the story is generally on the dull side but it still well done if you want something short.

The animation, voice acting and OST is good too.

The Journey of Eleina is not a bright happy-go-lucky story. It's not your typical, she went on a journey and lived happily ever after story. No. This anime is about the beautiful yet cruel world, and that's what makes this a masterpiece. Everything is honest and down to earth. A lot of people may not like this anime because it's too real, it's too vivid, but it's actually a reflection of real life and the challenges of the world we live in. The anime is told like a collection of fables, with each story having its own underlying message or theme. That's what makes this anime so unique!

Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina is a unique anime that doesn't view karma as an infallible law, instead focusing on the characters' intentions and the consequences of their actions. While some viewers may misconstrue these themes as pretentious, Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina doesn't reject optimism or idealism. Karma and morality are treated as open-ended questions with no inherently correct answer, often influenced by luck. The show's various happy and unhappy endings demonstrate the complexity of these themes.

Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina is an enchanting story with an unpredictable pattern of storytelling. The story features happy, nature-inspired episodes that warm the soul, while darker, less frequent episodes challenge the characters' actions and beliefs. Even in quieter moments, subtle themes are explored, such as the construction of a wall in a small town. These themes complement the story on a wider scale, showing facets of Elaina's personality that are not explored in more serious episodes. The story is as much about Elaina herself as about the adventure, as travel is personal and inherently about the traveler.

When I first started watching this I immediately thought/hoped for a master apprentice witch situation a la Frieren. (If you haven't seen Frieren get on that asap rocky) but what it turned out to be more like Kino's Journey or Mushi-shi but unfortunately way more bland.

It's all episodic individual tales from the main protagonist (Elaine) of her witchy travels across the land. No individual episodes really stand out all that much aside from this one that involves time travel and takes a rather diabolical turn. Pretty delicious. There are also some pretty cool reoccurring characters, like Elaina's teacher but Elaina herself aside from looking pretty is a little underwhelming. She is really skilled at magic and is the first to acknowledge both her skills and her looks but often too neutral and uninterested making it difficult for one to get invested in any of the tales.

But this anime looks pretty. It has this whole "slice-of life" vibe and the action sequences though rare are so vivid, colorful and smooth. Good animation is what im trying to say. Some episodes are like "meh" others are like "eh".

It's a short series. Not a waste a time but nothing really great or groundbreaking. But if you wanna get some anime witchcraft snack for your heart eyes give this a go 7.23/10.

Dark scene, wholesome moment's, comedy. Everything. But I don't know why people are failed to understand Elaina character
