Flying Witch This is a surreal daily life anime about the everyday life of one Makoto Kowata, a 15 year old teenage witch who's moved in with her second cousin's family in Northern Japan. Being a witch, she can fly on a broom and do magic spells, but mostly takes things easy, living life one day at a time! She's also something of a space cadet.  Here are some of her friends and relatives: Chito, a cat. Unlike a certain other black cat familiar, not voiced by Phil Hartman.  Chinatsu Kuramoto, her adorable, perky, energetic little cousin.  Kei Kuramoto, Chinatsu's older brother. Pretty laid-back, just like basically everyone and everything else in this show.  Akane Kowata, Makoto's older sister. In the manga, makes her first appearance in a  Vietnamese ao dai. Quite well-traveled! And the normal friend girl. Oh her name is Nao Ishiwatari. Okay! Now I know!  This show is directed by Katsushi Sakurabi, known for works such as Gunparade March and Lunar Legend Tsukihime. Stream episode 1 on Crunchyroll!!! I love the low-key approach to magic in this show, and the way the fantastical interjects itself into the mundane world so seamlessly. It's just a heartwarming and relaxing thing to watch! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MANGA If you want to check out the manga, we've been reading it and enjoying it quite immensely (when translations have been arsed to come out) in the Surreal Daily Life Manga thread. You should! It's pretty magical.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------- KITTEN'S GIF CORNER a kitten posted:This show is great!

This show is great!   The manga has been a lot of mellow fun and the anime is off to a fine start. Lots of fun character moments and interactions and it's barely begun.

Unlike previous high school witch anime Witch Craft Works, this one has no big hats, and only one (human) character has animal ears. Big silly hats are out. I don't remember them having any in Maria or Yamada-kun either. (Except for the Yamada-kun OP, but that was just the OP.)

I'm loving this show so far, it just oozes charm. My only disappointment with the anime was that Makoto was a hell of a lot more of a badass when she's testing brooms in the manga.

Looks cute and followed. The mandrake's arms freaked me out a bit and I look forward to more magical creatures popping up soon.

My only minor point of contention is the way they did the little shiny mark/shadow thingy on their noses. It kind of looks like it's floating over them, and it's sort of weird and distracting at times. You can sorta see it in this gif.

I think they picked a good VA for him! He always sounds so chill. Also, yes, Chinatsu is a super adorable kid! I wish they could've gotten an actual 11 year old kid to play her, the way they got an actual 6 year old to play the kid in Bunny Drop, because her voice sounds just a tad odd. Oh well!

I hadn't really noticed anything myself but yeah, that would have been cool. Barakamon had really good child voice actors too I think about Kei's VA, I think its his first role too. Or at least MAL didn't have any other things listed when I immediately had to know who this incredibly calming voice belonged to

Someone showed me a clip of the Mandrake and I'm hooked. They played that scene out perfectly, with all the horror and awkwardness they could milk out of it.
