Witch

批評家の魔女。その性質は権威。価値有るものとそうはで無いものをより分けることに熱心な魔女。無価値なものには杭を刺し価値あるものには花をつけるらしいが、魔女自身以外に花が与えられることはめったにない。裁定基準は不明。その結界は杭で潰された物や人が残した色の光であふれている。

Raspberry
Runes	RASPBERRY
Type	Critic witch
Nature	Authority
Episodes	Episode 12, Yachiyo Nanami (Anime ver.)'s side story.

A witch who passionately endeavors to sort out that which has value from that which does not. She apparently stabs stakes into the valueless things, and hands flowers to the valuable things, but it’s extraordinarily rare for anything besides the witch herself to receive a flower. Her standards of arbitration are unclear. Her Labyrinth is filled with light in the colors of the things and people that have been crushed by her stakes.

Minions

批評家の魔女の手下。その役割は便乗。魔女から無価値であると断定されると、蚤のように跳ねるこの手下どもが一斉に襲ってくる。この手下はその大きなハサミ状の口で相手をかじりたくてしょうがないので、魔女の言う価値云々には全く興味がない。

Razzie
Runes	RAZZIE
Type	Critic witch's minion
Duty	Jumping on bandwagons
Episodes	Episode 12, Yachiyo Nanami (Anime ver.)'s side story.

When something is deemed valueless by the witch, these jumping, flea-like minions will descend upon it en masse. These minions only do so because they desperately want to gnaw at their target with their large, pincer-shaped mouths, and have zero interest in any of the “value” nonsense that their witch talks about.

Trivia

The Witch's type, "Critic", was revealed in the game during the airing of the Episode 12 of the Anime by Doroinu's game profile.
- The term "Critic" is also mentioned in Izabel's description, but it is unknown if these two Witches are related to each other, or the description simply telling her weakness by "bringing a critic".
She and her Familiar are named after the Golden Raspberry Awards, also known as "the Razzies" or "the Razzie Awards".
Her Witch's Kiss in the Magia Record Manga adaptation is rotated 90 degrees compared to the game version.
The Witch might be themed after trees, with branches sprouting out of her main shadow hand when she attacks.
- While possibly not intentional, she shares some similarities with Elsa Maria. Both having a completely obscured and shadowy body, and has attacks or body parts linked to plants.
The white arms that holds the stakes are part of the Witch in the Magia Record game.
