Breaking Barriers: The Diversity in the Current Witch Series

The current witch trend has taken the entertainment industry by storm, with countless TV shows and movies featuring witches as their main characters. This newfound fascination with witchcraft has captivated audiences and sparked a renewed interest in the mystical world of spells and potions. One of the most popular witch series currently airing is "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina," which follows the life of a teenage witch named Sabrina Spellman. The show takes a dark and thrilling approach to the world of witchcraft, incorporating elements of horror and the supernatural. With its gripping storyline and complex characters, "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina" has garnered a large and dedicated fanbase. Another notable witch series is "Charmed," a reboot of the beloved 90s show.

For all the somewhat on-the-nose exposition the episode gives, it’s also smart in how it tailors character expression to characterization. Anis’ younger brother Algard has very few lines, for example, but it’s clear from a sightline or tightened fist that he sees his ruler-to-be status as a prison and resents Anis for shoving it onto him in favor of carefree freedom. Anis charges forward impulsively and gets the most showy action scenes and physical comedy. Euphyllia has molded herself into the proper image of nobility for her family’s sake, and almost all her dialogue is internal. Little choices like that do wonders to liven up the standard archetypes, and the lively pace of the direction makes up for the rest. There’s also a total lack of panty shots during Anis’ many pratfalls, which was another of those “low bar” major reliefs.

Magic is something only the nobility inherits, and Anis studies in magicology have caused uneasy muttering that clearly has to do with the those Filthy Poors potentially having access to magical items down the line. I expect many scenes of Euphyllia being scandalized by Anis blasé attitude to propriety; here s hoping it doesn t also decide to use that tsundere element for a no means yes approach to romantic progression.

Another notable witch series is "Charmed," a reboot of the beloved 90s show. This new incarnation follows the lives of three sisters who discover they are powerful witches destined to protect innocents from supernatural threats. This modern take on the classic series has attracted both old fans and new viewers alike, with its fresh storyline and diverse cast.

Yen Press is licensing both the light novel and manga in English and they described the plot as:
Despite her supposed ineptitude with regular magic, Princess Anisphia defies the aristocracy’s expectations by developing “magicology,” a unique magical theory based on memories from her past life. One day, she witnesses the brilliant noblewoman Euphyllia unjustly stripped of her title as the kingdom’s next monarch. That’s when Anisphia concocts a plan to help Euphyllia regain her good name-which somehow involves them living together and researching magic! Little do these two ladies know, however, that their chance encounter will alter not only their own futures, but those of the kingdom…and the entire world!

I was really excited to start "The Current Witch" series, as I had heard great things about it. However, I was sorely disappointed.

2. Sam - 1 star

I couldn't get through the first book of "The Current Witch" series. The writing style was choppy and the pacing was off, making it a struggle to stay engaged. The protagonist was whiny and annoying, and it felt like the author was trying too hard to make her relatable. The world-building was also lacking, leaving me confused and uninterested in the story. I ended up giving up on the series altogether, as it just wasn't for me.

3. Emily - 3 stars

While "The Current Witch" series had an intriguing premise, the execution fell flat for me. The writing was mediocre at best, with awkward dialogue and repetitive descriptions. The love triangle subplot felt forced and cliché, adding nothing substantial to the story. Despite this, I did find some enjoyment in the unique magical elements introduced. However, I don't think I will continue with the series, as there are other more well-crafted fantasy novels out there.
