How Witch Bells Became a Symbol of Protection Against Evil Spirits

Witch bells myths exist in various cultures and have been passed down through generations. These myths revolve around the belief that bells have the power to repel and protect against witches and evil spirits. In some myths, it is said that witches are repelled by the sound of bells ringing. The loud, high-pitched sound of the bells is said to disrupt their concentration and weaken their powers. It is believed that the ringing of bells creates a protective barrier that witches cannot cross. Witch bells are often associated with protection and good luck.

Then there's a 14 episode OVA series, Ojamajo Naisho which was straight to video and so not really considered season 5 (it takes place during the timeline of season 4, if I recall).

It was initially broadcast on the 4Kids TV programming block from 2005 to 2006, while the remainder of the show was released exclusively on the network s website from 2007 to 2008, with a total of 50 episodes being translated.

Witch bells are often associated with protection and good luck. In many cultures, it is common to hang bells on doors or windows to ward off witches and evil spirits. The belief is that the sound of the bells will alert the residents of any unwanted presence and protect them from harm.

Magical Doremi/Ojamajo Doremi RETURNS English Dub

Magical Doremi will apparently be returning after not airing since 2005? Ojamajo Doremi fans could this be a hope for a Second Season Dub it's gonna air on tv on April 24, 2010!

The first season has already been dubbed completely all they have today is air it if it is popular and good enough for a 2nd season i hope 4kids doens't butcher it to shredds and I hope they take a page outta Disney and Nick book and learn anime with Japanese stuff can be popular in america (Ponyo,Stitch!,Avatar the Last Airbender) I hope they learn from Stitch! a lilo and stitch anime remake that a anime with japanese culture can work in America. If they do make a 2nd season they better not mess it up edit only what you have to cause remember 4kids if your reading this YOU DO NOT HAVE POKEMON MONEY TO FALL ON ANYMORE.

Must be doing it as filler, but it'd be nice if maybe, just maybe, it had legs. Anime could use a strong, new foothold in that demo, even if it came at the cost of a revitalized 4kids. Of course, they've never made a non-game-based anime a hit, and at a 7am filler slot, I doubt they'd make it work now.

/Funimation should buy some of the DoReMi OVAs, and show 4Kids how this is done.

Funi should buy season 2 of Ojamajo Doremi and Show 4kids how to really dub but, hey think about this look at Digimon and Saban they did a awesome job.

Now all I/You can do

I'll be happy if we get to see the rest of season 1 air all the way through.

Do I wouldn't mind Funi doing the rest of the series and movies, save me the trouble of hunting down the raw tapes(not that I haven't had some success).

Stone free, do what I please

. Am I seriously the only one here that knows 4Kids has ALREADY dubbed the second season?

It's been up on their site for a year or two, if you want to watch it. Those dub episodes haven't aired anywhere on TV yet, so who knows what might happen.

(Unless, by season, you mean series, in which case, no, they haven't dubbed the second series.)

People usually discuss Ojamajo Doremi in the same terminology as they discuss Pretty Cure (in fact they air in the same timeslot)
1 year = 1 Season = 1 series

Each time the title of the show changed that's the next ~50 episodes and the new season.
So it's Season 1 - Ojamajo Doremi, Season 2 - Ojamajo Doremi #, Season 3 - Motto! Ojamajo Doremi, Season 4 - Ojamajo Doremi Dokkaan!

Then there's a 14 episode OVA series, Ojamajo Naisho which was straight to video and so not really considered season 5 (it takes place during the timeline of season 4, if I recall).

However, why one episode? It's a pretty long series, and airing 1 episode will take forever to get foward.

1. This was announced a few weeks ago.
2. The series is all online (4kids.tv).
3. Last time I checked, 4Kids wasn't going to dub the next series. Things might have changed, but I don't know.
4. They're starting at episode 1, not season 2.
5. The series was finished 4-5 years ago, when they were still dubbing badly. Now, it's not nearly as bad (look at Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's and Dinosaur King).

Sorry if I upset/disappointed you.

"Witch bells myths" was a disappointing read for me. The plot seemed promising, but it quickly turned into a confusing mess. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked depth, making it hard for me to connect with them or care about their fates.

I was excited to delve into the world of witches and myths with "Witch bells myths," but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The pacing was slow, and the story lacked direction, making it difficult for me to stay engaged. The writing felt forced and overly descriptive, with too much focus on irrelevant details. The characters, while initially intriguing, soon became predictable and flat. Ultimately, "Witch bells myths" failed to capture my interest and left me feeling unsatisfied.
