Choosing the Right Altar Tools: Essential Witch Supplies

Shopping for witch supplies can be an exciting and mystical experience. Whether you're a seasoned witch or just starting out on your magical journey, finding the right supplies is essential for practicing witchcraft. From herbs to crystals, candles to cauldrons, there is a wide range of items to choose from. One important aspect of shopping for witch supplies is setting an intention. Before entering a store or browsing online, take a moment to focus on what it is you are looking to manifest or achieve in your practice. This will help guide your choices and ensure that the items you select align with your goals.

And am saddened, because such a thing is too awesome not to exist, even though nothing could live up to my imaginings.

it s strongly hinted that the high priestess is in fact Louie s mother, which makes her comments to Melissa of why not just sleep with him all the funnier. The party is currenly comprised of Merril, the quick-tempered short Thief ; Genie, the amazon Warrior ; and Melissa, the not-that-pure Cleric Kikuko Inoue in yet another of those self-parody roles - at this point I m not even sure I remember her ever playing the perfect-woman type straight.

This will help guide your choices and ensure that the items you select align with your goals. When it comes to selecting herbs, it's important to consider their correspondences and properties. Each herb has its unique energy and can be used for various purposes such as protection, healing, or divination.

[In which I review] New anime, Spring 2001 (1 Viewer)

What's it about ?
In the Triangle Nebula (which seems to be in charge of monitoring all inhabited planets) should start the ritual ball where the Prince of Tambourine choses between the Princesses of Harmonica and Castanet. except he's gone missing. Young Princess Comet of Harmonica is sent to Earth to look for him, but her quest doesn't start very well.

This is the remake of a 60s live-action series. No, really.

Princess Comet, our 12-year-old protagonist. She really doesn't care about all the formalities of her rank, but planet Earth looked AWESOME from afar, so she's totally onboard for her mission. She's got some magic star powers, but they're honestly quite lame so far.

Rababou, her pet-thingy, is supposed to help and guide her, but he manages to get lost within minutes of landing on Earth. Oh, dear.

Her family : her father the king sleeps through half his seen, while her mother the queen is generically regal. There's also an old chancelor-type dude who just can't help droning on and on with exposition. (Comet being bored beyond tears by him is one of the most fun scenes of this episode.)

We're also introduced to rival Princess Meteor from Castanet, although she doesn't get to really do anything yet.

Production Values

Perfectly okay for this kind of thing. The character designs remind me of Heartcatch Precure, and there are worse standards to adhere to.

Overall Impression

Is this series supposed to be so depressing ?

In a refreshing swerve, when Comet shows up on Earth with no money and nobody to guide her, the shopkeepers refuse to give her any food for free, and she ends up sleeping in a park. Which is welcome, considering how boring the episode had been up to then. One might wonder what her parents were thinking when sending her there, though.

Now, there's obviously some light at the end of the tunnel, as she eventually meets the mother of two twins she befriended earlier, with the implication that Comet's going to find a roof to sleep under next episode. Presumably, wacky hijinks will be starting soon. but it's still a bizarrely sad start for a series.

Not that I mean that the series is really worth getting out of your way to watch (I don't think it's even entirely subbed). It's a kids' show with some weird quirks, and that's it.

How many magical girl series end their first episode with their heroine starving on a bench under the rain ?

Rune Soldier Louie (Mahou Senshi Louie)
(24 episodes)

What's it about ?

Comedic heroic-fantasy. Three female adventurers are looking for a magician to complete their party. A female one if possible, but the only one they find is a classic male lech who ain't even much good at it.

The party is currenly comprised of Merril, the quick-tempered short Thief ; Genie, the amazon Warrior ; and Melissa, the not-that-pure Cleric (Kikuko Inoue in yet another of those self-parody roles - at this point I'm not even sure I remember her ever playing the perfect-woman type straight).

Presumably shortly joining them is Louie, our title character. He ain't much good at magic (he apparently got into the Magic Academy through nepotism, and doesn't pay attention to the lectures), and spends his time drinking in towns and leering at any girl he sees. His "accidental pervert" tendencies don't help : he spends most of the episode either on the run or in jail.

There's also Ila, his fellow student who'd like to be a bit more, wink wink nudge nudge (he's totally oblivious). She's prominently featured in the ED, so presumably the writers'll find a way to keep her around despite her explicitly stating she has no interest in adventuring (much to the distress of the trio, who'd rather have her than Louie).

Production Values

It does the job, but just that. I'll also note the rather high fanservice level (it's mostly the "all in good fun" kind rather than anything skeevy, though).

Overall Impression

Hello, Slayers clone !

Okay, that's a bit harsh. Especially as I find it quite funnier than its predecessor (mostly because I like the main characters more). Still, this looks like a bog-standard heroic-fantasy comedy. including the vague hints that it'll get more serious once the real plot shows up.

I'm actually a bit curious on how it goes on : it looks like decent popcorn watching.

There's a perfectly rational explanation why Louie has barged into Melissa's "religious ceremony" and looks like he's about to rape her. Really.

Just slumming

One thing to keep in mind about Rune Soldier Louie. it's in the same setting as Lodoss, just on a different continent. Definitely worth watching, at least to get to the end to watch one of the more unique ways of dealing with a BigBad.

irreducible complexity

As a gamer buddy of mine put it "if I were a crusading paladin-type god, I'd want a churchful of fangirls too"

It's also amusing that Melissa, rather than being the healbot, is in fact the heavy artillery. Oh and,

it's strongly hinted that the high priestess is in fact Louie's mother, which makes her comments to Melissa of "why not just sleep with him" all the funnier

Princess Comet (Cosmic Baton Girl Comet-san)
(43 episodes)

What's it about ?
In the Triangle Nebula (which seems to be in charge of monitoring all inhabited planets) should start the ritual ball where the Prince of Tambourine choses between the Princesses of Harmonica and Castanet. except he's gone missing. Young Princess Comet of Harmonica is sent to Earth to look for him, but her quest doesn't start very well.

This is the remake of a 60s live-action series. No, really.

So I did a wikipedia lookup and discovered it's based on a manga by Mitsuteru Yokoyama.

Which means, of course, that no matter how you describe it I envisage it as being directed by Yasuhiro fucking Imagawa, Giant Robo style.

And am saddened, because such a thing is too awesome not to exist, even though nothing could live up to my imaginings.

Hare + Guu (Jungle wa Itsumo Hare nochi Guu)
(26 episodes)

What's it about ?

Hare is a normal boy living in a quirky jungle community. and then an albino girl called Guu crashes into his life. Cue SAN loss.

Hare, our 10-year-old protagonist. He's got a tendency to ramble endlessly at times. but considering the constant assault on his sanity in this episode, that's a normal reaction.

Weda, his single mother. (And my, doesn't she look a bit young to have a 10-year-old kid ? Oh dear. ) Routinely comes back drunk from village parties, and overall ascribes to the "tough love" school of child-raising.

Guu, the albino girl Weda came back with one night ("she's got no parents", which should have raised some warning flags). At first she looks diabetes-inducingly cute. but from the next morning on she drops the façade in front of Hare. But she's not merely sarcastic : her shtick involves eating stuff whole (including Hare himself twice). Her stomach is a bizarre fantasy land with tons of weird stuff. including two perfectly normal high school students who don't bat an eyelid about being there.

Of the rest of the jungle community, we only see the one neighbour yet. This is obviously the present day with modern technology (Hare plays videogames in an hilarious RPG spoof sequence), but on the other hand there are some very weird local fauna and flora. Also, "shopping" apparently involves picking bananas directly from trees, and Weda's "work" seems to be hunting.

Production Values

While the budget's not through the roof, it makes some nice use of it, with appropriately psychedelic visuals. The background music's a bit MIDI-ish, but surprisingly effective (there's some awesome comedic timing there).

The OP is a thing to behold, with a very catchy tune and even the vegetation dancing to it.

There's a weird prologue sequence, as a pregnant Weda melodramatically leaves a mansion under the rain. It's a complete mood clash with everything else (especially the OP just after).

Overall Impression

Well, that's certainly different. The sheer weirdness of it all is overpowering and makes it a compelling watch. (It helps that I share some of its sense of humour.)

I'll be honest : I've already seen the whole series and the first set of OVAs (I need to track down the second set at some point). While it never really goes anywhere (the more serious turn it takes with the eventual disclosure of Weda's background doesn't feel like much of a climax), it's still a pretty good gag series that understands perfectly well that it should never explain Guu.

Oh, it's just a pokute.

Researching and understanding the properties of different herbs will allow you to make informed decisions about what to include in your collection. Crystals are another popular choice among witches. Like herbs, each crystal has its own energy and can be used for specific purposes. Some crystals are known for their healing properties, while others promote protection or amplify psychic abilities. When shopping for crystals, it's important to handle each one and pay attention to how it makes you feel. Trust your intuition and select the crystals that resonate with you. Candles are a staple in many witchcraft practices. They can be used for various purposes such as setting intentions, casting spells, or creating a sacred atmosphere. When shopping for candles, consider the color symbolism and select the colors that align with your specific intentions. For example, blue candles are often associated with healing and clarity, while red candles are connected to passion and strength. Finally, a cauldron can be a powerful tool in a witch's practice. Traditionally associated with witches, cauldrons are versatile objects that can be used for rituals, spellwork, or as decorative items. When shopping for a cauldron, consider the size, material, and design that resonates with you. Some witches prefer cast iron cauldrons for their grounding properties, while others may opt for a more decorative option. In conclusion, shopping for witch supplies is an opportunity to connect with your inner power and enhance your practice. Whether you're drawn to herbs, crystals, candles, or cauldrons, it's important to set an intention and select items that align with your goals. Trust your intuition and enjoy the process of finding the perfect supplies for your magical journey..

Overall, I left feeling like I wasted my time and money.

2. Emily Johnson - 1 star - The Shop for witch supplies was a complete letdown. The store was messy and disorganized, making it difficult to find what I was looking for. The staff seemed clueless about the products they carried and couldn't provide any helpful recommendations. The prices were also way too high for the quality of the items. I won't be returning to this shop.

3. Sarah Thompson - 2 stars - I had high expectations for this shop, but unfortunately, it didn't meet them. The selection of witch supplies was very limited, and I was hoping for a wider variety to choose from. The prices were also quite steep, especially considering the quality of the items.
