10 Years Without a Sequel, The Most Underrated Fantasy Anime Gets an Exciting New Surprise

by

The anime industry is booming, but with so many new shows being made, many great series get lost in the shuffle. While anime’s popularity has exploded in the last ten years, studios can’t always dedicate the same level of effort to every project. Although a story might be fantastic, the focus on popular action genres like shonen means many shows don’t receive the attention they deserve. Recent hits like Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, and Solo Leveling have become incredibly popular worldwide, leading viewers to often stick with what they know. These shows quickly get renewed for more seasons, but unfortunately, underrated series often face long delays for a second season – or get canceled entirely. Some dedicated fans have even been waiting over ten years for a continuation of their favorite shows.

Even though Flying Witch has a charming story, beautiful animation, and a wonderfully relaxing soundtrack, it didn’t become popular enough for a second season to be made. The series follows 15-year-old Makoto Kowata as she moves away from her family to begin her training as a fully independent witch – a tradition for witches of her age.

I watched as Makoto and her black cat, Chito, settled into Aomori. It’s a place known for attracting witches, apparently because the land itself feels naturally magical. Makoto seemed to be trying to live a normal life, going to high school, but honestly, she was anything but ordinary. Her unique personality and, well, her witchcraft, definitely made things a lot more interesting for her – and for anyone around her.
