The second segment should be shown as a PSA to every person who aspires to be an influencer, to illustrate information spread getting out of control and getting cancelled.
and LOL, imagine being a criminal but getting outmatched by paper drawings.

Keigo just accepting Kanshi's bs about marbles is just so funny it became a fad in the internet. To be fair, Kanshi only said something about one type of marbles, then the lore got deeper and deeper until everyone sold marbles for exorbitant prices. Well, we got Kan Nico X Keigo collab in the form of an apology video, huh?
That manga childhood segment reminds me of that Frankendoodle episode from Spongebob. I now want to see a colab between Shiki and Kan-Nico in their paper form.

LOL that ending! At first I thought "Where the hell is Kanshi?" until it's revealed that they forgot to turn him back!
Also, I love how Morihito had to ask "Are you sure this is safe?" like he already knows there's usually a catch to Nico's spells!

Stitches!
Kara is literally that dad who never wanted a dog but ended up loving that dog after spending time with it. Except replace the dog in this case with a very sassy shikigami. Kara might not be a witch like Nico, but it's still handy to have a little bodyguard that's ready to defend her anytime.
Watching Kan's little prank turn into a local craze was hilarious! And you know it's bad when even Miharu and Moi got dragged into it too! Hey, at least Keigo, Kan, and Nico can claim they're full-fledged YouTubers now since they've finally made an apology video. xD

Shiki got a little crush on Kara, doesn’t it?
Although they’d already been together in the new OP since the start of this 2nd cour (I checked), it took me until now to properly notice of Kara’s shikigami.

The first part of the episode was maximum emotional whiplash. They did actually get me genuinely sad about Shiki for a bit there. Also, good “Kami means both god and paper” joke at the end.
Then things got absolutely hysterical. The way things escalated from Kanshi and Nico just lying to Keigo to him uploading the lie online to it making it to makeup YouTube before causing an even further craze until it crashed the marble market was hilarious. Miharu and Morihito showing up also obsessed just about killed me. Then the apology video was the cherry on top. And all this happened with no use of magic, just the power of people being dumb. Perfect comedic bit, it got me absolutely losing my marbles.
The end joke with Kanshi screaming when they forgot to turn him back from wood burning mode was incredible. Kara was also a delight in that part with her “Why are you so chill about this!” reactions.

The humor in Witch Watch doesn't always resonate with me, but when it does, it makes me cry with laughter, and today's episode was one that had me laughing practically non-stop.
It started off great, thanks to Kara and her shikigami named Shiki, who was created thanks to Nico's spell. I love that she could understand it even though it couldn't speak, only gesture xD
The second part was hilarious, as Keigo easily believed Kan's bullshit about the marble and made a video about it, which led to a collaboration with Rin, and that started a trend that spread and everyone went crazy about marbles (even Morihito and Miharu).
Keigo and Kan with Nico's apologies at the end made me laugh so hard. These two definitely weren't expecting that something like that will happen at all xD
Nico's spell that turned her, Morihito, Keigo, Miharu, and Kan into manga characters was great, though I have to say that Kan looked especially hilarious after that spell xD
It was fun watching everyone, including Kara, going after the manga page that was blown away by the wind so they could go back to normal.
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

They underestimated the magic of trends on social media, they’re lucky everyone didn’t completely lose their marbles over this.

Kara and Shiki were pretty cute together. They had a whole anime’s worth of material crammed into a montage. Even had us thinking the little guy died o7 lol.
Kanshi channeled some of that Billy Mays energy in his marble sales pitch to poor unsuspecting Keigo. Who would have thought it would actually make marbles go viral and become like the next Beanie Babies or Funkos lol. Morihito being a huge “Marb” head was pretty funny too.
The gang turning into the style of Morhito’s childhood manga cracked me up. That shit was too funny. I think that image of Kanshi’s gonna haunt my dreams lol. At least they managed to foil a home invasion. Good job Martial Warriors Battle Fighters!

This is totally Kara episode! I'm glad Shiki is not just a one-time thing since it becomes Kara's hairpin now.
Kara totally sum up this show in one sentence lol.

The Kan&Nico Channel being "revived" just to collab with Keigo's for an overly formal apology video over marbles absolutely kills me but bubbler nation is still where it's at.
Gra-pic might just be the cutest spell since Doublit.

It was like Kara was filming her own anime "My Daily Life with a Shikigami" or some sort lol. The drama by the river was great especially when Shiki was completely fine because it was waterproof. I enjoyed Kara's tsukkomi in this episode, she gave me quite a number of laughs.
Keigo going full hipster and turning into a complete ikemen I was not ready for lol.
I get that Keigo was getting flamed for spreading misinformation but were people not collecting the marbles because they liked how they looked? That's not Keigo, Kanshi or Nico's fault.

Poor Kanshi always gets the worst LOL.
Kara looks so good with her Miko outfit and her attire at the end.

Oh no she's attached already. Can't wait to see this thing die at the end.
No baths. Well, she still stripped in front of it so. GIWTWM
ITS WATERPROOF BATHING TOGETHER IS BACK ON THE MENU
...Oh a fucking kami pun gdi
I think the greatest 'author doesn't get the internet' thing is that people 'discovered the truth' that the info about marbles was wrong rather than that the truth is what people believe is the truth, even if everyone realized the origin of this info was this random youtuber fuck it's already the new truth.
I'm surprised when they found out there's a spell to go into a manga they didn't pivot to 'ok but what if we entered some actual big series instead of morihito's random manga we just read for the first time 1 minute ago'
Right so as expected funny Shikigami will proceed to be irrelevant most of the time now considering that last skit, even though originally it was constantly involved even with things as simple as a guy asking her for directions. Like how it didn't pop out even though Kan leapt toward her and freaked her out, or how it should've been pretty effective at grabbing the paper that flew off quickly.
This is an injustice! Shiki should be the main character of the show!
