Makoto Kowata is one such apprentice witch who leaves her parents' home in Yokohama in pursuit of knowledge and training. Along with her companion Chito, a black cat familiar, they embark on a journey to Aomori, a region favored by witches due to its abundance of nature and affinity with magic. They begin their new life by living with Makoto's second cousins, Kei Kuramoto and his little sister Chinatsu.While Makoto may seem to be attending high school like any other teenager, her whimsical and eccentric involvement with witchcraft sets her apart from others her age. From her encounter with an anthropomorphic dog fortune teller to the peculiar magic training she receives from her older sister Akane, Makoto's peaceful everyday life is filled with the idiosyncrasies of witchcraft that she shares with her friends and family.[Written by MAL Rewrite] Related Entries Flying Witch MALxJapan -More than just anime- Characters & Voice Actors Staff "Sharanran feat. 96 Neko (シャランラン feat. 96猫)" by miwa "Nichijou no Mahou (日常の魔法)" by Makoto Kowata (Minami Shinoda) & Chinatsu Kuramoto (Eri Suzuki) Episode Videos Episode 12 Episode 11 Episode 10 Episode 9Reviews Apr 10, 2025 At the beginning and when the anime started, I had a little trouble with the character's facial expressions, but it gradually became natural to me. The calm environment of the anime, the detailed and beautiful backgrounds, the smooth story and away from false excitement, all give you a special sense of peace.This anime gives you a special peace and you want to experience a life free from worries and calm like that.The good and logical relationships of the characters, the small humor and the gentle stories, are all beautiful and worth watching.The story is relatively specific and underdeveloped.What I enjoyed most was the beauty of... life in small, rural towns and a warm, friendly family.

It’s not that it’s bad, it’s that it’s boring. It doesn’t really go anywhere or do anything, there is little to no plot development and for a comedy, it’s not funny apart from two moments, but in general, this show is not funny, despite being labeled as a comedy. The characters are also very one dimensional and offer no opportunity for development… or to do anything even remotely interesting. This was ultimately a one cour show that came and went without... doing anything or even making an impact. Reviewer’s Rating: 5 What did you think of this review?

The entire series is lacking any conflict or extensive developments, which were far and away the best parts of the show. The sister's arrival and the magical phenomena (the mandrake, burning the hair, the black and white river) were the best parts, but overall the series came and went and literally it was just a bunch of characters in a room talking about obvious and/or dull things with almost every other sentence ending in sugoi! (amazing) or eehhhh! They would call such random things amazing. Oh you... own a liquor store, or can spin around in a circle, or like to eat fried herbs, or can make curry? Amazing!That dynamic definitely enhanced the feeling the show gave off of just shallow, fake characters. Everybody was too happy basically all the time, and people would get excited over weird things. Three middle school boys were literally looking at a cat in a tree and say "Amazing, that cat is so cool." That just feels dumb to me. I only finished the show because I'm a completionist and because I wanted to see if they would actually make some type of plot with the reason she moved there (to train as a witch). Spoiler, they don't. Not well at least. So yeah, bad show Reviewer’s Rating: 4 What did you think of this review?
