Short and simple
If you need a break from heavier material, this web-based series is kind of cute. The story is very simple, there's a little bit of magic involved, and there are no unlikeable characters.My favorite story was the one about the teacher. There was a little more to it than the other storylines. It really spoke to how things can change if you believe in yourself.
I do have to say that I found the acting wanting in this show. Everyone went around with the same expressions all the time and their actions were kind of wooden.

The most enjoyable character for me was their teacher (who had his own mini-story). He was pretty adorable so look out for him!

A bit of magical fluff to relax to.
A high school student becomes some kind of indentured servant to a witch, who then decides to go to school and create a love triangle for fun. Sounds about right!I am a sucker for the pastel aesthetic of the series - especially the cute card deck we see during the title card and credits! - although I somehow wasn't expecting to get slapped with it in the form of slime ASMR halfway through the plot.
Speaking of which, I only have one nitpick.
I'm not a huge fan of pairing the much older immortal witch with a teenager. Honestly, I would have preferred if the main cast were at least college students or the witch was just a teen herself to make that feel less uncomfortable. But the slice-of-school-life romance story is still cute, so I just tried to put that thought out of my mind for most of it. It's a shame that there wasn't much room to develop the witch's character, so we are mostly left to wonder about who she is and how the witch society she comes from works.
Unanswered questions aside, the cast of characters we do get to meet are fun to watch and root for.
