Synopsis:

Chiyoko is a fifth grader with a fascination for the occult, whose life takes an unexpected turn when a botched summoning accidentally brings a witch into her world. This unconventional mentor, Gyubid, becomes Chiyoko's sole instructor in the intricacies of witchcraft. The series explores the challenges and humorous realities of learning magic while navigating the ordinary pressures of elementary school.

The story blends slice-of-life elements with fantastical scenarios, focusing on character development and the everyday struggles of a young girl adapting to extraordinary circumstances. It offers a gentle exploration of responsibility, friendship, and finding one's place within a world both familiar and magical.

Reviews:

User PixelB (Score: 8/10):
I honestly watched this show like four years back, so apologies for the lack of too many details in this review. But then again, I watched this review four years back, which is also when I basically stopped watching anime for years on end. This show was the only show I watched back then for a long time, and also take into consideration that I already was a grown ass adult 4 years ago for the first time, so there wasn't any nostalgia fueling my high rating. Like yes, each is episode is 6 minutes long, which is 15 episodes of regular anime, so basically barely longerthan a regular season. The episode lengths, however, do reflect the semi-short and sweet episodes. Sometimes, the anime has a little bit of story, but honestly, it's mainly just comedy, meant for by the way, children.nnYet, as I was watching this show meant for probably 10 year olds or something, it surprisingly was pretty funny. Just like how Gumball, Regular Show or Spongebob (just to name a few) can still be appreciated, this show, too, can be appreciated if you're an adult.nnHonestly, this show's comedic timing, framing, setup, and execution surpasses most comedic shows of any kind. Surprisingly, it's a funny, laid back show around a kid who is the apprentice of a witch that plays tricks on her a bit too much. It's simple, endearing, and it's funny. There are a decent number of side characters, and each episode passes by in a blink of an eye. Truly an oasis in the dry spell I had back then.nn nif you're tired of all of the mainstream garbage because you've already filtered through all of the good shows and want something more of a hidden gem, then this show is for you. I found this show by sheer coincidence on a random streaming website. I certainly didn't regret it.
