Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo

When Ryuu Yamada entered high school, he wanted to turn over a new leaf and lead a productive school life. That is why he chose to attend Suzaku High School, where no one would know of his violent delinquent reputation. However, much to Ryuu's dismay, he is soon bored; now a second year, Ryuu has reverted to his old ways—lazy with abysmal grades and always getting into fights.

One day, back from yet another office visit, Ryuu encounters Urara Shiraishi, a beautiful honors student. A misstep causes them both to tumble down the stairs, ending in an accidental kiss! The pair discover they can switch bodies with a kiss: an ability which will prove to be both convenient and troublesome.

Learning of their new power, Toranosuke Miyamura, a student council officer and the single member of the Supernatural Studies Club, recruits them for the club. Soon joined by Miyabi Itou, an eccentric interested in all things supernatural, the group unearths the legend of the Seven Witches of Suzaku High, seven female students who have obtained different powers activated by a kiss. The Supernatural Studies Club embarks on its first quest: to find the identities of all the witches.

Criminally underrated show with a great concept. Each episode to me felt wholly unique and intriguing, managing to keep my attention throughout.
The characters were easily distinguishable and memorable in their own ways and the way they interacted was at some points purely for plot convenience but most of the time it felt natural.
The pacing was relatively consistent and plot lines didn't take too long to reach their relevant conclusions which is often something that causes some anime to fall behind on.
Overall, Yamada Kun and the Seven Witches deserves more attention than it gets and I would say is a good first time romance anime.

Mixed Feelings

There is no beating around the bush, it's a supernatural themed harem, it's kinda entertaining for some of the antics and some of the comedy is alright.

The romantic progression between the main couple was enjoyable as well and I did like the characters when I watched the show.

In retrospect the characters weren't done particularly well, they were barely characterized beyond the cliche of top of the class falls for deliquant and all the tropes and cliches surrounding that.

The opening is really really nice tho, doesn't factor in a bunch when it comes to this review, but hey I can recommend the OP for sure.

The story ... does one of my least favorite tropes as a fake off or "Mock" ending twist, but it isnt really believable that it'd really stay that way. The "twist" involves memory wipes and that just feels like a crux or poor writing to create a bit of articial tension or make you angry.


On the whole it's a harem, "romcom", with a supernatural quirk about it, it's for the majority of the runtime mindless fun, but nothing too special.
a 6/10 objectively, tho I kinda enjoy these kinda shows so it's more of a 7/10 personally

The only 2 good things this show has is comedy and power concepts. The comedy isn't top notch per say, it is decent enough to get some guaranteed laughs though. The power system is a great idea; it wasn't used to it's maximum potential, more ways to use powers than just kissing for example or a longer story could have presented a variety of situations where the powers were more than just a plot device.

The story beats pass by way too quickly; this in turn compromises the mystery aspects and makes everything solvable before the show presents it's ta-dah moments. I think ... you can tell no-one took this project seriously when both sub and dub voice actors sound like they rushed through it and/or just kept their first take.

I'm not suggesting a slow pace like Monster Anime; I'm just saying this story would have benefitted from the plot being taken seriously and more flushed out. Although the aim may have been to use such a serious premise to present it in a more light hearted fashion or the manga may have had a plot that wasn't so rushed.

Oh well; not like it's my demographic anyway, although I do remember being in that demographic and I would have thought the same then.
