Grab your broomsticks, folks, and strap in! We’re blasting off into the hilariously chaotic world of Hello, I Am a Witch and My Crush Wants Me to Make a Love Potion! Yep, you heard that right! This isn’t your grandma’s witch story; this is a wild rollercoaster that just dropped a new visual and trailer faster than you can accidentally hex your ex! Mark your calendars for October 5, 2026—get ready for a spell so binding, you might just sign up for a potion-making class! 🧙♀️✨
So, what’s brewing in this cauldron of creativity? Enter director Keizo Kusakawa, the mad genius orchestrating this whimsical circus over at studio diomedéa, where I’m convinced they’ve got an IV drip of pixie dust. Story wizard Wataru Watari is weaving a plot tighter than your Aunt Karen’s Spanx, while character artist Masakazu Ishikawa is conjuring up characters you’d want to snatch off the screen and bring home—seriously, consider adoption. On the music front, the incomparable Satoshi Matsumura is crafting jams that’ll have you dancing like a caffeine-fueled squirrel at an all-you-can-eat nut buffet.
Our magical heroine, Rose, voiced by the fabulous Mikako Komatsu, is on a mission that’s more tangled than last year’s Christmas lights. And her would-be knight in slightly shiny armor, Harij, is brought to life by Yohei Azakami. Oh, but wait! We’ve got two more delightful oddballs hopping on this broomstick ride:
- Hiro Shimono as Tien—this dude’s gonna sprinkle mischief like it’s confetti at a chaotic parade.
- Akira Sekine as Billaura—come on, that name sounds like a magic spell just waiting to go nuts!
Now, let’s talk about those earworms! Centimillimental is crafting the opening theme “Kanawanai” that’ll burrow into your brain like an enthusiastic brain parasite, while Reini serves us the closing banger “Mada Uso ni Naranai.” These are the kinds of tunes that’ll have you belting out woefully off-key notes in the shower, practicing your best witchy cackle—complete with dramatic hair flips!
And feast your eyes on this main visual that’ll make you giggle like a witch who just spilled her potion:
Based on the delightfully zany light novels by Eiko Mutsuhana, Hello, I Am a Witch and My Crush Wants Me to Make a Love Potion! is all about Rose, the *Witch of the Lake* (not to be confused with the *Witch of the Cheese Shop*, though I hear their gouda is divine), who finds herself in a hilariously messy situation when Harij asks her for a love potion. Plot twist: She’s been crushing on him harder than a witch’s cauldron during a full moon! 🌙
This tale kicked off its journey as a web novel on the fabled Shosetsuka ni Naro, hobnobbing online from April 2019 to March 2020. Then it was magically transformed by Futabasha into a light novel, complete with illustrations that’ll make you question your alliances with reality. And let’s not forget the manga adaptation launched by Kamada in August 2020. For those who prefer English over incantations, worry not! Cross Infinite World is crafting the light novel translation while Yen Press is sprinkling a little magic on the manga.
