The witches of Kazumi Magica come in two varieties: the witches that match the ones in the anime, and "pseudo-witches", or human women who have been possessed by an imitation Grief Seed called an "Evil Nut."

A witch fought by the Pleiades Saints in chapter 3. It captured Umika and Kaoru. The other five Saints tracked it down after discovering that its barrier moved around on the same schedule as the Asunaro Library's bookmobile. Kazumi killed it with a precision strike from outside the barrier after the other Saints signalled her.

Airi's Witch Form

Card Kazumi Witch 4.png

Unknown

TypeUnknown.
EpisodesKazumi chapter 5-6

Yuuri/Airi's witch form resembles a giant heart, which may have certain implications. The rings on Yuuri's weaponry also appear on the witch.

When Kazumi attempts to turn Yuuri back to a human, it causes Yuuri's body to rise out from the witch, while still being connected to it. She appears to have almost no sense of self left, continuously repeating the last spell she used on Kazumi. Notably, her speech bubbles use the runic language.

Yuuri Asuka's Witch Form

Card Kazumi Witch 5.png

Unknown

TypeUnknown.
EpisodesKazumi chapter 5

Yuuri Asuka's witch form resembles a giant hypodermic needle, similar to her weapon as a Puella Magi. Giant forks come out of her body, which probably refers to either Yuuri's cooking talents or transforming into a witch during a cooking contest. The forks also contrast with the spoon amulet she carried, acting as a sort of evil counterpart; in fact, when the witch drops Yuuri's amulet, it possesses a dark fork in the handle in the opposite direction of the spoon (which then vanishes as the last part of Yuuri's witch form).
