Synopsis Witch Watch
Witch Watch tells the story of Nico Wakatsuki who has completed her six years of witch training and is returning to the city alone. As a new witch, she must choose a familiar to accompany her.
However, unlike other witches, he chooses a non-animal familiar. There is no better friend than Morihito “Moi” Otogi, his childhood friend who happens to be a giant.
Morihito is strongly opposed to becoming her servant, but he reluctantly accepts his fate after learning of the curse that will turn him into a grotesque cow-tiger hybrid if he disobeys the witch’s orders.
With Morihito’s father away on a business trip and Noc’s mother remaining in the Witch’s Holy Land, the two found themselves living together under the same roof.
While Nico is overjoyed to be living together with his crush, Morihito finds that the magical antics and overall awkwardness create more problems than solutions.
With disasters predicted to befall Nico this year, Morihito must do everything he can to protect her as her bodyguard while also performing his duties as her familiar.***
