Utilising the staple theme of “useless guy mysteriously developing harem,” new magical witch combat anime Witch Craft Works has nonetheless attempted to to make up for in moe and busty witches what it might lack in originality.
The best is yet to come. Obama saying that I immediately thought it was a reference to MGS1.
The first episode didn´t hook me up but I think I´ll try to watch more to decide whether this show is for me or not.
And that ending might be my favourite of the season.
Yeah not harem. And if they had actually read the manga instead of just watching the damn anime they would know that this series is complete shit. Plus the guy is BEYOND USELESS! He’s technically gay in some cases in every sense of the word.
Sorry, but whoever wrote this anime has no clue what Witch Craft Works is about. Lacking Originality? Are you kidding, I think its pretty unique. This is just a comment made from watching the ending.
The character isn’t useless. It’s the first episode, and he becomes more useful later on. This is in no way a moe, harem show. I’m calling out to you author named Rift.
This is episode 1 and if it follows the manga it will get better later on. Don’t try forcing your moe vision onto all anime you see Sankaku when there is a strong female role.
I don’t mind weak male lead, just he got to have something to compensate that weakness with something, say, brainy head (Katsuragi Keima) or some unique power (Touma Kamijo, Eren) or simply funny person(Sakurai Tomoki).
It makes me wonder why harem anime even bother considers having a male character at all. Nobody likes them- they have no personality- and more often than not garden variety.
Even as a strawman or choirboy, it’s useless because you want them to get off the screen so you can see more of the girls.
Yes, let us remember all the ways random women have been murdered in history under suspicion of witchcraft with random cutesy chibi deaths. That seems respectful.
I know it’s not harem, but I just wish the heroine is less of a Kristen Stewart with huge rack because her face basically never changes throughout the entire episode.
I know stoic girl is a fetish for some, but perpetually sleepy face is just lampshading on how one-dimensional she is so far.
The outro is offensive to witches such as myself I demand that they remove it.
I know that Sankaku never had good quality news to begin with, but this is just another low.
Witchcraft Works is never a harem story.
Those hats.
I’ll see them in TF2 one day or another.
>Harem
>Moe
Wrong, just wrong. It’s already been told that the useless MC becomes less useless later on, get over it.
Jeez, do your investigative work better, sancom.

More useless to Rito imposible. For luck Wichtcraf is not that class of garbage harem echii.
As someone who reads the manga if you think this is going to turn into a harem show then your in for a surprise.
I know this is Sankaku, but at least do your research before you make a post stuff like this because None of the points listed below are true:
>Harem
>Useless guy
>Lack in Originality
Actually, the guy is totally useless.
Resurrecting the entire town twice is not useless anon, he is a Mana battery.
>battery
STILL FUCKING USELESS
bEST ENDING SEQ EVAR!
There a fine exemple of “Sankaku” speaking without knowing, again, as “Witchcraf Work” is not even close to be an harem “anime”.
Yeah not harem. And if they had actually read the manga instead of just watching the damn anime they would know that this series is complete shit. Plus the guy is BEYOND USELESS! He’s technically gay in some cases in every sense of the word.
wait, gay huh? how far into the manga before we get to that?
>claiming he read the manga
>tell that MC is useless
Well, that’s not the most usefull MC ever ^^
^ Confirmed, not harem.
Read the Manga.
omake 11: ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE -*whistle whistle whistle*-
The Outro alone made me cackle like a maniac.

I dunno about the rest but episode 1 was the most cliche shit i’ve ever seen.
MC is also a loser.
> MC is also a loser.
How exactly any *normal* guy is supposed to hold a candle to anything even as weak as Tanpopo?
Knowing the current trends, you know it won’t follow the manga. This is most certainly no Mirai Nikki.
My problem wasn’t was the story, it’s that the pounds upon pounds of CG they used made the whole anime look like garbage.
Except its not a harem, and he becomes much less useless as the series goes on.
Apparently he becomes less “useless” later.
I’d give it a 3.5 out of 5. It was good but doesn’t stand out much…at this point.
I like that it’s a strong woman protecting a weak(er) male. Doesn’t happen that often.
I’d give it a 5+ out of 5 if that useless male MC never existed. This show would’ve been better without him.
I also liked the rabbits. Watching the two punch each other was pretty funny.
I don’t mind weak male lead, just he got to have something to compensate that weakness with something, say, brainy head (Katsuragi Keima) or some unique power (Touma Kamijo, Eren) or simply funny person(Sakurai Tomoki).
I think people are tired of seeing it taboo for males to act like a male and a female to act like a female.
He pretty much stays useless just got some magical power he can’t even use though. At the moment he’s pretty much an extra battery for the female mc.
If resurecting the whole fucking city is useless for you.
Cause boys protecting girls became too mainstream
Dem plot!
Touhou 2.5-D ? I haven’t seen it yet but is it Touhou 2014?
the female lead looks like Sakaki from Azumanga Daioh.
Naw, I’m saying she looks more like the Hakurei Miko (non-reimu version), but without the scars.
Holy crap, I’m not the only one who saw it… I thought it was just me knowing its by JC Staff…
im bored already
NOTHING FANSERVICE ANIME RUINED BY WIMPY UNLIKEABLE DORKY MALE LEAD.
Japan stop this shit.
90% girls in this anime having seriously male faces. guys with wigs.. have fun.
yes, THAT IS ALSO WHAT I NOTICED, THEM GIRLS ARE SO UGLY!!!
It makes me wonder why harem anime even bother considers having a male character at all. Nobody likes them- they have no personality- and more often than not garden variety.

Oh you!
Why should people care what happens in fiction.
Jokes are serious business.
better than being told twice before breakfast how some 70 years ago shit went south in europe.
I know it’s not harem, but I just wish the heroine is less of a Kristen Stewart with huge rack because her face basically never changes throughout the entire episode.

I like Harem anime.
I hate “useless guy” crapAnime.
