Oh this is awesome news! Witch Craft Works was awesome and I heard it didn't even adapt the "good" parts of the manga yet as well! Can't wait to see more.

Better than cancelling it, I guess.
They should make it longer too while they're at it :)

The manga has such good art <3

loving the anime so far. Hope the OVA has a season 2 announcement!! =D


Unfortunately the manga isn't far enough to justify a season 2.

Depends on how much first season covers. The manga must be selling pretty good if the anime is already not far behind it???


I've been wondering about this as well. Where will the anime end? I haven't read the manga yet but from what I've heard in various places the "best" stopping point would be around chapter 27 or 28 since a major arc stops there, but that's a lot to cover in one season of anime. For comparison episode 4 covered only chapter 7.

The latest chapter to be released is chapter 31 (32 will come out in about a week or so), so that's not much material left if the anime does stop at 28.

Cool, but I wonder what it'll cover? Will it be an original or will it cover a chapter after the twelve TV eps are up? Hmm...


I'm curious about this too but likely a standalone episode with comedy.
