| Nature | Rebounding |
| Appearances | Magia Record |
The witch of rubber. Her nature is rebounding. She appears at ocean bathing resorts, and the interior of her barrier is an endless expanse of ocean. The witch herself can't swim at all, so it's essential for her to have very buoyant minions. Apparently, she can also perform high-speed bodyslams by bouncing herself around, but she's too busy clinging to her minions so she doesn't drown in her own barrier. She hibernates during seasons when there aren't many bathers visiting.

| Type | Rubber Witch's Minion |
|---|---|
| Role | Buoyancy |
| Appearances | Magia Record |
Minions of the witch of rubber. Their role is buoyancy. These Minions can glide along the surface of water like pond skater bugs. The beach balls they fire are capable of turning whoever they hit upside down, and many lost humans who wander into their Labyrinth are drowned in this manner. As they are filled with air, they fear sharp objects. You can usually find Minions like this floating on the water, disguised as inflatable rings.

ゴムのマジョ
性質は「エントロピー弾性」
手下の攻撃で人間を溺れさせ魂をうばうおそろしいマジョ。
マジョ自身もいろいろ出来るらしいがカナヅチなので何もしてこない。
（陸の上でなら、マジョは全身をスーパーボール手先をムチのように使えるが、結界内が海なので使ったことはない。）
（手下に乗って水面をチョロチョロしている）
ゴムのような体は 統弾も撥ね返す。
(The Rubber Witch: Her nature is "entropy elasticity". A terrifying witch that drowns humans with its minions' attacks and steals their souls. The witch herself can do various things, but she is clumsy and does nothing. (On land, the witch can use her entire body like a super ball and her hands like whips, but since the barrier is underwater, she has never used them.) (She rides her minions and moves around on the water surface.) Her rubber-like body deflects bullets.)
マジョ
泳げないので必ず手下に乗っている。
海水浴客が少なくなると冬眠する。
(Witch: Can't swim, and must ride on her minions. Hibernates when the number of beachgoers decreases.)
手下
役割は浮力。
浮き輪型、たくさんいる。
海面を自由に走り回るが、刺されるとすぐ割れる。
(Minions: Their role is buoyancy. Ring-shaped. There's a lot. They float freely on the surface of the sea, but burst immediately when pricked.)
結界
海面に広がっている。
（※マホウ少女は飛べない。）
海水浴客がいつのまにか迷い込む
結界内は一見普通の海、周囲に浮いていた無人の浮き輪が一斉に立ち上がる。
(Barrier: It spreads across the sea surface.
(*Magical girls cannot fly.)
Swimmers wander in without realizing it.
The barrier looks like a normal sea at first glance, but the unattended floats floating around suddenly rise up.)
音
チャプチャプ海面を走る手下の足音
ビーチボールけったりする音
手下の鳴き声「プーッ」「プーッ」みたいな風船系
マジョの声は「キュッキュッ」みたいなゴム系の音
(The sound of minions running across the choppy sea surface. The sound of kicking a beach ball. The minions' cries sound like “poof, poof,” like balloons. Majyo's voice sounds like “squeak squeak,” like rubber.)
攻撃
手下、中心の穴からビーチボールだして足でけってくる。
ボールが体に当たった者（武器 服 含む）はくるりと一度 体の上下が入れ替わり海水を飲んでしまう。
連続でぶつけられたらくるくると回転しそのまま溺れてしまう。
(Attack: The henchmen kick beach balls out of the hole in the center with their feet. Anyone who is hit by a ball (including weapons and clothing) is flipped upside down and drinks seawater. If hit repeatedly, they spin around and drown.)
