Synopsis

Nico Wakatsuki has finished her six years of witch training and is moving back to town by herself. As a new witch, she must choose a familiar to accompany her. However, unlike the other witches, she wishes to pick a non-animal familiar. There is no better companion than Morihito "Moi" Otogi—her childhood friend who happens to be an ogre. Morihito is vehemently opposed to being her servant, but he reluctantly accepts his fate after learning that a curse would revert him into a strange cow-tiger hybrid were he to disobey a witch's order.

Due to Morihito's father leaving for a business trip and Nico's mother remaining behind in the Witches' Holy Land, the two teens find themselves living together under the same roof. While Nico is ecstatic to be living with her crush, Morihito finds that her magical antics and overall clumsiness create more problems than solutions. With a prophesied disaster to befall Nico within the year, Morihito must do everything he can to protect her as her bodyguard while also upholding his duties as her familiar.

I don't peoples rates on myanimelist at all...
This manga is the funniest thing I have ever read in my entire life. It makes me cry lauthing each volume without a miss.

The story and main plot is interesting while you get daily situations with comedy and magic involve. All the characters are well presented with self development.
The art is great in each situations no matter what: fluffy scenes, fights etc.

I cannot recommend this manga enough. It has become since volume 1 one of my favourites. Give it a try if you wanna have a fun time with no much plot complications or drama.

this manga deserves more lights. I know Shinohara from SKET Dance and also about him being Sorachi's ex assistant. and I love how he inherit 'Gintama-ish' comedy yet still has his own flavor in it.

SO, the story premise actually sounds very basic; Nico, a 'talented' witch, need to train her spells in society. But she needs a familiar to accompany her, and she chose Moi, her half ogre childhood friend that happened to be her love interest, to protect her along the training phase. the story goes how her spells tend to give 'comical-effect' and brings Moi lots of trouble. Classic Rom-com of shounen ...

Witch Watch blends slice-of-life gag comedy with romance and an overarching shonen action plot. It has many moving parts that give me hope it will get me hooked. However, while I can certainly recommend Witch Watch, it unfortunately has been too inconsistent for me to say it is great.

Witch Watch is at times creative, fun, and experimental. For instance, a few early chapters frame a character’s inner monologue as a reality show interview. In another chapter, the characters find themselves in a death game that is so poorly designed, they (the ones captured and forced into said death game) re-structure the game from scratch only ...
