    Good watch

    Its very funny and I also like the art style its a very good watch and I would recommend it. I also like how it has references to other anime which is good. The only thing I don't like is maybe about the disaster that will happen to Nico. I think its taken a bit too long to show what will happen but its still a good watch.

    cute and funny so fare

    So at the time of riting this the first 2 episodes. Have released and how does it have a. 6.7 i personally totaly disagree and here are my opinions 1. Its funny its mostly out of nowere humour with no build up. Buth it doesnt feal forged. I can see why people dont like it.its not everybodys cup of thea buth i find it funny. 2. the romeance tbh watching this as a 15 year old boy. I dont realy like it i wish it was not a romeance. I dont realy like romeance anime/movies/shows.cuse im a action guy.(i also like slife of live. Voor its relable and chillnis thats way i desidet to watch this anime) 3. The animation is butiful from the intro to the comedy.

    Rating comidy - 7/10 animation - 9/10 romeance - 6/10.

    Witch Watch

    This twenty five episode anime series is centred on Nico Wakatsuki, a teenaged witch, who moves into a house with Morihito Otogi, an ogre, who looks human, and is to be her bodyguard. She has feelings for him but they don't appear to be reciprocated. Played mostly for laughs they must deal with various issues, often caused by Nico's magic having unexpected consequences. As the series progresses they are joined by more supernatural beings who appear human.

    I thought this was a fun watch. The stories are fairly inconsequential but provide plenty of laughs with likeable characters. Nico's supernatural friends may all be male but it doesn't have a reverse harem feel as there is little in the way of romance. Overall I'd say that while this isn't the most memorable anime I've seen it is worth watching. I'll certainly be watching when it returns for a second season.

    These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

    Too Much Filler

    This show starts off well and good. I premise is interesting and so are the characters. The first few episodes move the plot along at a nice pace and set up some good subplots as well. And then nothing happens for almost 8 episodes. 8 episodes of whimsical filler that does nothing for the story. This show gets really boring.
