A mahou shoujo anime that ain't precure or a reboot of an old, already established franchise love to see it.

Great! Not so many witch series are released! Recent was Eleina. Hope it would also be so interesting to watch!

Nah, it isn't a ripoff, mahou shoujo is actually a established genre, i thought the same as a child when i watched Wedding Peach and Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne and thought they were Sailor Moon ripoffs which probably contributed to my dislike of them, because i didn't know about that mahou shoujo was a genre at that time.



This is a mahou shoujo anime aimed at children so you shouldn't expect it to be like Elaina, if that's what you're hoping for you will be very disappointed, this is NOT a edgy Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica knockoff that the industry has been churning out ever since it proved a success, but rather, think of it like anime such as Precure, Ojamajo Doremi, Sugar Sugar Rune etc.
