For those unfamiliar with Witch Watch, the Shonen Jump series got its start in February 2021, and it has become a top-seller at Shueisha. The magical rom-com tells the story of Nico Wakatsuki, a teenage witch who moves into a home with her best friend-turned-familiar Morihito Otogi. The pair experience all sorts of episodic adventures with one another as Nico’s feelings for Morihito evolve into something bigger than she ever expected. Created by Kenta Shinohara, Witch Watch is an easygoing read filled with magical hijinks, so it was just a matter of time before some studio opted to adapt it.
