Anime-onlies, welcome to the most important part of Witch Watch: Kanshi constantly suffering.

Miscellaneous trivia:

  • Otto-man: A pun about how “Otto” is Japanese for “husband”. Quite ironically, shortly after this chapter in the manga, a completely unrelated manga with the same concept and name pun came out.
  • The opening once again referenced parts of the episode - an Ottoman ad is shown as Nico and Nemu are on a train, and of course the opening “Witch Watch” segment shows Kan arranging flowers in the shape of the title as he loses it.

Kanshi is great at getting along with people, playing wingman, or just in general vibing, but when it comes to helping himself? Not so much.
