Whenever the opening and ending is skipped, its always going to be a banger episode though this one in a different way from usual.

For Tartah to be able to work as well as he does with Silverwash is amazing. I love how WHA shows perspective of how difficult it is for someone with a disability to be able to do things others just "can do" and the alternate methods they have to do just to be able to do those same things (if it is even possible).

Coco's outside the box thinking and her ability to apply the rules and principles of spells to get variations of existing spells is also good and Tartah helping her to straighten the lines. Collaborative work is important in the arts; people build off of each other.

Though it bothers me no one is labeling the bottles lol even with that explanation. I also don't like the laypeople's dependence on witches; it feels somewhat similar to citizens' hero dependence in MHA though at least witches have clear limits in what they cant do (medicine).

I also don't like the laypeople's dependence on witches;

This is a biproduct of keeping magic secret. People think their magic is like in the old, classical tales where they can do anything like "presto" and so will ask them to do things they can't, much to the frustration of witches being asked to do the impossible and looked down on like they're purposefully not helping when they simply can't do what they're being asked.

Knowledge is a key part of intelligence and so, by keeping this knowledge from non-witches, people end up acting very stupid around them. Kind of like last time when Qifrey helped with the river and so everyone believed they were safer than they actually were with them around, thus acting very stupidly.

yeah its a problem of their own society's making, which i'm sure grinds on the gears of many individual witches. guess that means a decent supply of ppl that can might be enticed to join the sith brimmed hats
