Nurse Witch Komugi R is an anime television series based on the original anime OVA series, Nurse Witch Komugi. It is a comedic and magical girl anime that follows the story of Komugi Yoshida, a clumsy and energetic high school girl who becomes a magical nurse after being bitten by a mysterious creature. The main idea of Nurse Witch Komugi R is the transformation of Komugi into a magical nurse and her adventures in fighting against evil and saving the world from various threats. The series combines elements of comedy, fantasy, and action, creating an entertaining and lighthearted show for viewers. Some of the main characters in the series include Kyousuke Date, Komugi's childhood friend, and Tsukasa Kisaragi, a popular idol who also becomes a magical girl. Together, they form a team and work together to protect the city from evil creatures and villains.
The OVA was later adapted to an Manga under the same title illustrated by Rei Nakajima and published by Hakusensha in their magazine Young Animal Arashi. The Manga spanned two volumes produced between September 29th, 2003 and August 27th, 2003.
Like the Sailor Moon monsters, some mostly just say their own names; some are more articulate than that; but all the Komugi monsters get to make some little quip as they are zapped out of existence, which is better than just shouting Lovely. As the synopsis notes, instead of a group of girls under the guidance of one character, here each girl has her own guide, and the guides are in pretty fierce competition with each other for the monster cards.
Together, they form a team and work together to protect the city from evil creatures and villains. One of the notable features of Nurse Witch Komugi R is its parody elements, as it often references and parodies other popular anime and manga series, adding humor and charm to the show. Overall, Nurse Witch Komugi R is an enjoyable series that combines comedy, magical girl elements, and parody, offering an entertaining and light-hearted watch for anime fans.

I found "Nurse witch komugi r" to be an absolute waste of time. The storyline was confusing and all over the place, and the characters were poorly developed. I also found the animation to be subpar, especially compared to other anime in the same genre. Overall, I was extremely disappointed with this series and would not recommend it to anyone.

I had high hopes for "Nurse witch komugi r" as I enjoyed the original series, but I felt let down by this sequel. The plot seemed forced and lacked the charm of the original. The comedy also fell flat for me, with hardly any moments that made me laugh. The animation quality was decent, but it wasn't enough to save the overall experience. I would suggest fans of the original approach this series with caution.
- Emily - 1.5 stars
I couldn't get into "Nurse witch komugi r" at all. The characters were one-dimensional and the story felt repetitive and uninteresting. The attempts at humor were often cringe-worthy and the fan service felt unnecessary and gratuitous. I struggled to finish the series and, in the end, I felt like I wasted my time. I would not recommend this anime to others, especially if they are looking for a well-developed story and compelling characters.
