Yamada’s body swap kiss has started to change into a charm kiss and it’s affecting his inner circle, and his ex-best friend from his past is now part of the crazyness and we find out a bit of info about these witches. B+ (83%/Very Good)
Kind of surprised it took until almost the end of volume three to get to the whole "witches" part of this series. I would've missed out on a good series if it hadn't grabbed me before getting to the thing that's actually most compelling about the story.
The artwork is nice and clean and doesn't distract from the story. None of the characters are annoying and each have their own distinct personalities. There's some "ecchi"-ness but nothing super over-the-top.
Since FUNimation still has yet to announce the new release date for the anime series here in the US (they announced the English dub cast and the pre-order date for July back in April, but nothing came out of it), I'm willing to go back to the manga and try to read all the material the show adapted (which is about 10 volumes and 90 chapters, which is a lot).
The "seven witches" part of the title is now becoming more apparent. This volume steers away from the body-swapping comedy in favor of a charm spell thanks to another girl like Shiraishi and Yamada who has powers, Nene Odagiri. She's another candidate in the student council president race (where Miyamura is also competing), and she's the sassiest little thing ever. She's a joy to read out loud and to read as well.
There's lots of meddling, hijinks, and of course lots of people getting all fired up and yelling at each other (which I love). But there is also once again incredibly interesting character points and conversations that are reflected in nuanced art. Yoshikawa is taking techniques from her time as Hiro Mashima's assistant and really making them her own. Her characters are expressive and fun to read, and she really cares for them all.
The sleaziness still hasn't gone away either. Lots and lots of kissing and fanservice of both genders (most of it is on the women because we are dealing with horny teenage boys) are present, so be advised that this will probably be more of a mature read.
We ended off of a quest for the next witch, so can't wait to see where that goes! It's a summer club trip, yet Yamada has to make up tests because he failed all of them. Also, charm powers have been left on Miyamura and Itou, so I imagine we're going to have a fun start to the next volume.
That headcanon I mentioned last review with Miyamura being bisexual? There's more evidence every volume with it! No matter how Miyamura acts around women (ogling them, trying to kiss Shiraishi when Yamada can't kiss her since he lost her power), there's still those lines like "Whatever belongs to Yamada belongs to me" and those kisses that make me wonder. I know it won't actually happen, but can a guy just smile evilly and maybe look as handsome as Miyamura in the meantime?
Ohhh, a lot of progress, knowing more about the witches and their abilities. It's hilarious that so far, the magic in this series depends on kissing, so hat makes it a bit ecchi. I'm intrigued to see the rest of witches and their abilites.
A lot of fan service, knowing more about Yamada and how he got his reputation in the school. The supernatural club is wholesome in its own way. and I'm defintely rooting for Yamada and Urara to be together eventually.
I am really enjoying this series! It's so fun and the drama doesn't just go on and on. I like all the characters, but, Yamada-Kun is my favorite! He's almost impossible to hate XD. When Changing Bodies the personality change is perfect. You can easily tell who's changed into who because everyone acts the same no matter who they changed into xD

İşler her Volume daha da değişiyor, daha da heyecanlanıyor...
Şu Yedi Büyücü olayına giriş yapmadığımız için kafamda soru işaretleri vardı ama bu ciltte bu tamamen oradan kalktı. An itibari ile 3 büyücümüz var: Yamada, Shiraishi ve Odagiri.
Eski kulüp odasında Itō'nun bulduğu defterle bu güçlerin öğrencilere miras kaldığını biliyoruz artık. Şimdi ise yeni büyücülerimizi bulmak için yola çıkıyoruz. :)
Ayrıca bu ciltte Yamada'cığın okula nasıl girdiğini de öğrendik. Vallahi ben daha alengirli işler bekliyordum senden Yamada. Nasıl olur da okula girebilmek için eşek gibi ders çalışırsın ulan??
Oh man this manga keeps on getting better and sexier! haha! It's complete package of humor and green stuffs! If you wanna laugh out loud read this. Just don't read it at night coz people might start thinking you lost your coconut because you're laughing way too loud!
Este volumen estuvo buenisimo, no solo se comienzan a despejar dudas del asunto de los besos sino que Nene, que es una perra, le da mucho sabor a la historia. Me encanto.
When I first saw the anime adaptation of this series, I know I'm going to read its manga soon. And the time has come, haha.
It's pretty obvious that I love the anime, and my! I couldn't be happier because I love the manga as well. The drawing were so good and those facial expressions were hilarious!
I also love the story line, I know witches idea can be cliche, but I love how the author made this story different. Why it was different? You've got to find it out for yourselves ;)
It was doing pretty good actually until after the part of the first ceremony. I think they just added a twist to it to make it longer and I'm not specially a fan of those lots of memory lost moments. But oh well, the author redeem herself because of that very cute HEA! What more could you wish for eh?
We finally figure out about the “witches” and honestly it’s intriguing but I hope it just doesn’t end up as a harem, the comedy is alright, nothing special tbh but I fear the other witches are gonna be girls and since Yamada isn’t effected by their kisses they’ll fall for him 🙄 I will say tho the backstory of why no one likes him is interesting and I’m glad he’s stuck to his guns and won’t actually bow down to Odagiri

We *finally* find out what the 7 witches are and now have a template for the rest of the series, which bleeds more definitively into fantasy territory. I was pleasantly surprised at the twist regarding Yamada's powers and imagine it will be used to frequent comedic effect in the future. That said, enough of my curiosity is sated to set this series aside for now.
Still has some boys will be boys behavior and some chikan behavior but I am really enjoying it. It makes me laugh and I really like the art. All the characters look different are very easy to tell apart. The plot seems to be moving along well. I like both Yamada and Urara Shiraishi so much. I am really enjoying this manga.
Okayyyy, the best part with Shirashi in the old school building and she told Yamada never to kiss Nene again.
Nene's ability is to capture!! Imagine the harassment when Miyamura had feelings with Yamada and when taken away from him he felt lost hahaha loving his character
Klasický lapálie s Yamadovím body switchingem! Akorát v tomhle volumku je i pár docela fajn zvratů a náhledů do minulosti přátelství Yamadi a Igarashiho, takže pecka. Bavilo mě to hodně!
Plot twist! Holy crap! This volume had a major plot twist in it that totally threw me for a loop. I know, I know, it's pretty easy to throw someone as gullible as me for a loop, but you know what? It doesn't matter. I still think this volume was awesome and had the biggest plot twist in it so far.
Starting where volume 2 left off, Yamada, Shiraishi, Miyamura and Ito have all gone off to a school camp. They had a blast last volume, especially Shiraishi who, thanks to some good old-fashioned Yamada pep-talking, spent a lot of time with the new friends she's made sense she and Yamada first switched bodies. Last episode we were treated to a good dose of humor, a healthy heaping of character interaction, some plot, and a few scenes of fanservice. Not a bad volume all told, but Volume 3 is even better.
First off, we're introduced to a character who, though we've seen her before in the last volume, she gets a lot more time in this one. Nene Odigiri, within the very first chapter, tries to blackmail Yamada into convincing Shirashi to not take part in a mock exam being held the next day. Yamada tries refusing, of course, but unfortunately, Nene has pictures of Yamada not only in the girl's hotel room, but also going through Shiraishi's bag! It's not really him, but actually Shiraishi in Yamada's body. However, that means when someone has pictures of you, or what looks like you, pulling out and admiring girl's underwear. While Yamada tries to solve this problem on the own by switching bodies with Nene and deleting the picture, in the end he's forced to tell Shiraishi about his problem. Why? Well, there's the plot twist - Yamada can't switch bodies with Nene! That's right, his body switching power, which has been the basis for the first two volumes, doesn't work with her. Why? Who knows. Well, I know, but I'm not giving away any spoilers. No sir. You wanna learn more, then you'll just have to read this volume yourself.
Volume 3 is definitely my favorite volume here, not only because we get to see a lot more random kissing scenes, but also because of how the plot is developing. I feel like the story is really beginning to go somewhere. It has all of the humor and engaging hilarity of the last two volumes, but it also shows us that this manga is more than just a silly comedy. The storyline develops a lot in this episode, and we get to learn more about the side characters. Volume 3 was a lot of fun to read. It kept me engaged all the way through to the end, and I'm looking forward to reading the next volume.
