Anyone seen ‘’Elaina the wandering witch’’? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So, I’m curious if anyone seen this short anime. I’m currently watching it, 3 episodes in and don’t know whether to proceed or to call it quits.

I love the worldbuilding, visuals and the fact that she’s a traveler but that’s about it. The fact she does not do much of help when needed kinda bothers me and I originally started his anime to have small cozy magic anime but 2 of the 3 stories are quite something (the plants & slave).

What’s your opinion about it? Do you recommend to continue?

Personally I enjoyed it, but it definitely felt more like a "slice of fantasy world life". Elaina doesn't really play the hero too much, and there aren't any big overarching plots that stretch over multiple episodes. It's really inspiring and interesting from a fantasy perspective, but as you already pointed out, sometimes there are things in the worldbuilding that could bother one.

If you want a cozy magic anime, might I suggest Little Witch Academia?
It also has a fair amount of action/adventure, but it doesn't deal with any heavy topics IIRC.
