Witchy Precure!! MIRAI DAYS – Episode 11 Review: A Battle for Time and Tears

By [Your Name]

The Magic Continues

The eleventh episode of Witchy Precure!! MIRAI DAYS is nothing short of a rollercoaster—packed with stunning animation, emotional stakes, and the kind of action that leaves fans buzzing. As the penultimate episode of this 12-episode spin-off, it’s clear the creators aren’t holding back. The episode, titled The Battle for Time, throws Cure Miracle, Cure Magical, and Cure Felice into a high-stakes showdown with Chronosto, the villain who’s been a thorn in their side since the beginning.

For those unfamiliar, Witchy Precure!! MIRAI DAYS is a sequel to the original Witchy Precure!!, focusing on Mirai Asahina and Liko Izayoi as adults navigating both the magical and human worlds. The series has been praised for its nostalgic callbacks while carving out its own identity—something Episode 11 exemplifies perfectly.

The Good: Sakuga and Emotional Weight

One thing fans can’t stop raving about? The animation. This episode is a sakugafest (a term anime fans use to describe an episode with exceptionally fluid and dynamic animation). From the high-energy fight sequences to the expressive character moments, the visuals are a treat.

One fan on MyAnimeList put it perfectly: “They went all out with the animation this time. Great-looking action scenes.” And they’re not wrong. The Extreme Rainbow move, a signature attack from the original series, makes a triumphant return here, executed with even more flair. Another viewer noted, “The action is good, and it feels amazing to see them do the Extreme Rainbow move.”

But it’s not just about the spectacle. The emotional weight of the episode is palpable. Fans are already bracing for what seems like an inevitable tearful goodbye between Mirai and Liko. One comment reads, “One more episode left. Time flies by too fast. Teary goodbyes incoming again? :(”

The Not-So-Good: Mixed Reactions to Alexandrite Style

Not everything lands perfectly, though. The Alexandrite transformation—a fan-favorite from the original series—has sparked debate. Some fans feel the MIRAI DAYS version doesn’t live up to the original.

“Even Alexandrite Style be worse than OG. Only Pink Dia Transform scene, I will give a Thumb,” one fan lamented. Another pointed out, “The reason why OG Alexandrite is best is because there’s a theme for each Cure, like their wand, Heart Star, and Flower.”

However, others argue that the MIRAI DAYS version has its own charm. “The best Alexandrite in Mirai Days is only at their Final Pose. Their Mantle looked like Wing, and we can see Alexandrite better than OG,” countered another viewer.

The Villain’s Evolution

Chronosto, the episode’s antagonist, also gets some attention. Fans noticed a subtle but significant change in his character: “I noticed that Chronosto no longer says ‘-wan’ at the end of his speech. I guess he fully recovered and is no longer a dog.”

His tactics are brutal, too. One fan observed, “The villain created that place with plenty of rocks so he could throw the Cures into them. More painful that way.” It’s a small detail, but it adds to the tension, making the fight feel even more desperate.

Theories and Speculations

With only one episode left, fans are already theorizing about the finale. The biggest question? The fate of Mirai and Liko.

“From the preview, it will be another goodbye, where Mirai stays in the Non-Magic World and Liko stays in the Magic World,” one fan predicted. Others are curious about the implications of their potential reincarnation: “I’m curious with their reincarnation’s name and what will happen to them after their memories come back. Their parents will be sad if their child is gone.”

And let’s not forget Mofurun, the adorable mascot. “Will she be human? Can we get Cure Mofurun in the final episode?” one fan wondered.

Final Thoughts

Episode 11 of Witchy Precure!! MIRAI DAYS is a masterclass in balancing action and emotion. The animation is top-tier, the stakes are high, and the character moments hit hard. While some fans have nitpicks (looking at you, Alexandrite Style), the overall reception is overwhelmingly positive.

As one fan perfectly summed it up: “This episode was a sakugafest, and I’m all for it.”

With the finale just around the corner, the only question left is: How will Mirai and Liko’s story end? One thing’s for sure—it’s going to be magical.
