I just have a question after watching this season. Aren't witches in this series supposed to not wear pants/skirts. Basing it off Strike Witches and Brave Witches I thought that was a premise for anyone that's a witch in this series. Even if it's a spin-off it still takes place in the same world/era. Just asking this, not that it changed my liking of the show.

I'm not sure if there is an in-universe reason, but you're correct - witches don't wear pants. However, none of Yoshika's classmates wore pants. Are they all witches? Even if they were, they're not active military, so you'd think they'd be allowed to wear pants. I think there was a shot of a nurse not wearing pants as well. And older women DO wear pants in-universe.

They toned it down here (also, witches did not bath naked here) simply because it is no-no for an idol series. I doubt there is any in-universe explanation.

Most of the other witches that appear in the show are dressed "normally", perhaps with slightly longer skirts. But they don't show the usual camera angles, and shove something in the middle in order not to expose the panties. For example, in episode 1:



By rights you ought to be treated to a close up of Grace's ass, except the tail gets in the way. The most you can get is e.g. Heidemarie in ep. 12:



That said, respect to Mana for carrying what little fanservice the show had to offer on her hips.

The only explanation is the hunt for a new audience. The PG-13 rating is proof.

"Toning something down" and Shaft shouldn't be in the same sentence or same stratosphere, lol.
