YMMV / Flying Witch

• Ho Yay:
  • Akane and Inukai gleefully invade each other's' personal space when they get wasted together in episode four. They're also very proddy and close to one another during subsquent encounters. Borderline lampshaded in one omake set during Akane's mission to the Firekeep Gate, where she's asking Inukai for a 'little emotional support' and a flustered Inukai replies "This is no time for THAT!".
  • Hinted at with some of Makoto and Nao's female classmates with their admiration for Kazuno, shown during the street festival in Aomori; this visibly flusters Kazuno, and occurs again when Makoto remarks on how cute she is.
• Sleeper Hit: The anime has had fairly low ratings, but had been warmly welcomed, critically.
• Signature Scene: Makoto presenting Nao with an utterly creepy mandrake, particularly with the anime adaptation emphasising the unnerving noise and movement of the plant.
• Spiritual Adaptation:
  • To Sabrina the Teenage Witch. It even has a talking black cat.
  • On the other hand, it could be the closest thing to an animated adapatation of Hallmark's The Good Witch.
• Viewer Gender Confusion: Chito is a female cat, though it's not easy to tell just by looking at her appearance or the way she acts. Also not helped by certain translations - notably Crunchyroll's - referring to the cat with male terms at times.
