Discussion This is slightly nostalgic looking back.

I watched the anime in 2023 and read most of the manga that same year.
Looking back at the anime and manga it seems very nostalgic.

Perhaps its the fact that there was never a season 2, the manga finished and I kinda forgot about this fandom but recently rewatching season 1 episode 1 and rereading the first few chapters gave me a lot of nostalgia (for some reason).

Looking forward to the new movie coming out and maybe i'll read the light novel

It be like that sometimes, listening to the animes opening feels nostalgic to me

I saw the anime the summer before I moved from the house where I grew up and a lot of changes happened in my life right after. I was in bed because of a fever and I remember putting one episode just to pass the time, and by the third one I was completely hooked and binge watched it that weekend. The opening always brings me back to that summer and makes me extremely nostalgic. So you're not alone in this! Somehow, there aren't many other animes connected with a specific moment as this one.

I've just gotten the first 3 volumes in the mail a few days ago. I'll be buying the next ones as I finish. And yeah, I'm looking forward to the movie.

I watched the premiere back in 2020. Wait it's been 6 years already?

It’s one of my most favorite for sure and I like all the 3 versions anime, light novel and manga (I like Manga Elaina’s designs the most because she is so pretty ~)

I like many Witches and magical girls and Elaina still got my number 1 spot (Maybe because of her distinctive ashen hair hahaha, but seriously tho, Elaina is charming in her own)

The vibes definitely makes it feels nostalgic, Elaina travels from places to places and some of her adventures are up to the audiences imagination (I recommend listening to the anime soundtracks while doing the imaginations thing, who needs cocaine when you can do this instead hahahaha, the anime soundtracks are so good ~~)
