Episode 1

They call themselves witches in training, but they seem more like magical girls. In any case, colorful and kind of fun. That dark haired wench is pretty obnoxious. Another one for the "wait and see" pile. Damn, it's been an exhausting weekend. I feel like I've sampled, like, 10,000 anime.

Episode 1

Well, the girls are cute and entertaining enough that I will give it at least the 3 episode trial, but my expectations are not that high.

Episode 2

Wow, this show just got super interesting to me. I was really loathing Azu because she was almost psychopathically obnoxious for no reason I could discern. And then at the very end of the episode they reveal that she is a plus-sized girl who, I assume, is filled with self-loathing. Did not see that coming. Okay, this show is spinning some tricky plates and I really, really, really hope they don't eff this up. Time will tell.

Episode 7

Will we get to see Kyoka use magic to deal with her (presumably former) favorite V-Tuber creeping on her?
