LMFAO HOLY HELL

That WWE wrestling match all the witches on the side of good are mad scary. But the Tower witches are really cute.

Plus the MC and the queen's love vibes got really strong in this episode.

Way to go, destroying a part of the city to protect the said city, and the brother who's in the explosion radius as well. She should revise the ratio of damage against building vs witch she does. At least tune down the damage done to buildings, it'd be better for "protection" I think.

OP and ED are the best parts of this show. Fhana is just amazing and the ED remains catchy as hell every time.

The fight was entertaining, but what the is the town supposed to do now that Kasumi destroyed half of it whilst supposedly doing the work of "justice" (aka protecting Onii-chan)? How in the HELL was no one killed? Welp, time to turn my brain off and let acceptance take over. That will make this much more enjoyable. :)

It amazing there's no casualty in the fight.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Haha way to go Kasumi! So is Takamiya's whole family part of the Workshop?

When you think about it, the brother was pretty close to the ground impact centre. But, if the news reports no wounded , *obviously* it's true.

It's official, either every single Tower Witch are too weak and can't do shit, or every single Workshop Witch are indestructible and therefore OP.
Takamiya's imouto is cute, but can get really annoying imo

Most of the tower witches are weak in comparison yes, but that's mostly because his bodyguards (the princess and his sister) are both very powerful and he needs powerful bodyguards for a reason (his white stuff which will be revealed soon enough).

There's actually a valid reason why no one is injured, I wont spoil it but for future reference, there is a reason why NO NORMAL person gets injured in this city during these witch fights.

This show just keeps getting better, best episode by far!

-What's up with the penguins? lol

-That JPW match was the shit. Laughed my ass off, especially during the famous pose and mist spit! Teddy Nukesem!

-The brocon thing is a little annoying, but damn if that sister isn't BA

-Still love those tower witches, no matter how many times they get thoroughly stomped on. Tonpopo is great, and I love her review meetings.

-Finally getting a look at the antagonist, Medusa could be awesome.

All in all, I give this one 8/10.

Ughhhh...

This series was becoming my unexpected little pleasure for the season. And then the jealous litle sister cliché had to show up. God, I cannot wait for the imouto craze to be over soon.

Anyways, the Medusa character looks like it certainly can take on the Workshop witches.

For some reason I cannot help but feel meh about the episode. It wasn't bad but when it comes to rating somehow I cannot give it a high rating, not sure why, maybe because while it was good it had a lot of elements that were pretty random or something?

I mean sister being a witch is something that was pretty forceful, in fact I thought she would be the kind of non-witch but tough regular-person kind of character. She being a witch was unexpected, and that itself wasn't bad. The fact her power creep was ridiculous was what may have annoyed me, I mean she appears with a giant stuffed bear, beats those bunny robos around, then when the witch summons a big one of her own and the other win makes her dino grow, solution? Grow as big as a freaking mountain and just stomp them flat. The hell?

While entertaining it is a bit boring and a letdown that most of the Tower Witches are as useless as Team Rocket. Gotta lol at the 5 witches ranting their way on the karaoke though.

It's not really random as it hints towards future developments and shows that Takamiya's family are not as normal as they first appeared to be.

It's the same situation as "how are they going to fix everything now that they blew up half the city?" from this episode.

I really love how this anime balances awesome action with random humor. Thought it kinda minimizes the pawns it's kinda refreshing seeing a Team Rocket doing random things like trying to bring a llama into a business that allows pets as well as the weekly karaoke. =) So cute. ^_^

I also thoroughly enjoyed seeing the cute little sister dry his hair and then proceed to scare the crap outta him by the threat of extreme pain and discomfort. lol =D

That part though where the bear grew from like...building size to mountain size was hilarious. Oh! Did anyone else immediately thinking about Sakarasou no Pet na Kanojo because of the bear/bunny fight?

That will be explained before too long...

Hyper-imouto was less annoying than I remember from the manga... Maybe I just knew what to expect and it wasn't as bad. The next few episodes are HUGE in terms of plot and such... Can't wait! I love this show!

I understood from reading the manga that Honoka is basically a pussy. Of the highest degree.

But dear god has it not been made more clear than through the anime.

Wow. He really needs to man up.

Wow this show is so bad.

The main character is such a wimp.
The fire witch is OP.
Now he has an imouto to take care of him (who of course also is a witch).
No one has common sense.

What was up with that "mecha" fight.
She should have just punched the giant robot on the fucking head where the witch was standing, instead of punching the robot.
This is so stupid.

Also that one theme is so Ghost Busters.

Lol, the karaoke at the end of some episodes reminds me of Lucky Star. Maybe it's just my imagination but when Tanpopo was singing karaoke, she sounded just like Konata... which is interesting since Aya Hirano apparently plays another character in this series. I hope she's not a minor character, because I'd hate to see Aya lowered to a mere comic relief character. Either way it was a pretty funny scene.

Also just noticed that the ending theme was actually sung by those 5 tower witches.

I had a feeling Kasumi was probably a witch, she just looks witch-esque with her hair.

5/5

Nice battle between pedestrians, but nothing more!
The levels are not elevated in the field is during the narration, over and over again it repeats, so do not stay there so bad.
Plot quite interesting. Narration nice, Kasumi for now is only hinted at in his characterization, the only features that have marked most of all is his attachment to his brother and the yandere trait in his manner.
Technically it is still of good quality and the designs maintain a very good level.
Perhaps there is too much CG, but it is annoying; smooth animations.
For now I'm liking it a lot, I hope to continue like this.

Ohh, a brother complex. That will bring some comedy and a bit of new dynamic.

I never thought I would see in my life a wrestling fight against a giant teddy bear and a giant bunny mechas... xD
I also thought she was going for a german supplex at one point :P

I like when show mix mythologies. I wonder how Medusa will interact with the witches.

Anyway, there is literally witches everywhere in that show. Witches for everyone!

I'm really starting to like those five evil witches, they are fucking hilarious xD

Could've been a nice surprise of sorts this episode like how it was in the manga, but that preview last episode probably ruined it for some.

Anyway, Kasumi finally reveals herself as a second Workshop witch in charge of Honoka's security from Tower witches. Never really thought that one day I'd see that gigantic plush wrestling match scene actually get animated, but I did. And it was nothing short of awesome. Epic, even. GJ, J.C. Staff on that one.

Kasumi's got serious siscon + crazy yandere tendencies, but she does need to remember that as a Workshop witch, she should be be protecting the city and not be the one causing destruction... though she did state her goals and achieved one, to be fair.

I would hope people won't fault Honoka for being relatively powerless and call him spineless or tell him to "man up"; It's not really because he lacks will or courage like so many other truly wimpy anime mains out there (in harems especially); it's just that the many women around him are that insanely powerful AND domineering... that all his initiatives and attempts to be the hero for once all go by unnoticed. Meh, can't please everyone after all. :/
