What was Defense Witches 2?
Tumblr media
Announced during the fifth anniversary, Defense Witches 2 was the sequel only released in Japan (despite plans to release overseas) This game was only released for a short while, not even reaching it's first-year anniversary before the game shut down.
Tumblr media
While not much was known about the story (and I think only 3 or 4 areas were released before the game shut down) from the official Twitter page (err x), it seemed like the game was originally going to go with three main protagonists Mint (girl in pink) Felt (girl with the hat) (also take these two names with a grain of salt I'm not positive I'm going based off google translate) and Cornet (who needs no introduction)
Tumblr media
The main girls from the first game were also brought over now a year older :D
Tumblr media
There seems to be a new villain whos this girl (idk her name)
(Edit) Her name is Celesta, and she is Cornet's Older Sister. Thank you @defense-witches for the information
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now what was new in Defense Witches 2?
A GACHA system for gaining access to new characters, leveling up characters, gaining equipment/pets, and more.
A class system for character organization (year 1, year 2, year 3, other)
An equipment system (yes for each individual character)
A world map where stages were posted (credit to one of the dw2 artists)
new place management system for the witches where they disappear if not on a purple square after cooldown is done (year 1 & 2)
Adding onto the top point there's a new character what adds more purple spaces
Witches (3rd years and Others) usually only allow for placement of one of them on the map
Events offering rewards for characters, equipment, or pets (seasonal offered limited-time characters)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
What Didn't Make It Into The Game? (But Was Revealed)
Given Felt and her sister were revealed as explosion types, Tiana might of played a bigger role (she is also one of the few original special witches to get a character redesign)
Chiara and a lot of the older witches were released after the initial release via updates however Lyra never made it into the game
They teased special moves that never made it in-game
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'll be posting more about the character that did make it into the game and some of the in-game manga at a later date

First meetings part 5
<< <
Bonus episode
Well this isn't how Y/N wanted to let their new aquaintance know that they are a witch... especally because that new aquaintance has been living with wizards for a very long time and probably absorbed their biases
Seems like Sun and Moon are more concerned for Y/Ns safety than anything else though... Lets just say they have some history with witch executions..
Sun really just said "i dont want to deal with this situation" and noped out by pulling the curtains closed... good for him

One of the reasons why the “First born witch” thing, Dahlia, and Inadu were created was to give Hope more legitimacy as a witch through Klaus and Hayley. Esther stole spells and siphoned another bloodline’s magic. She couldn’t even create her own fertility spell. People argue that her magic was strong enough to pass to Hope, despite Klaus not being a born a witch himself. Only two out of seven of her children were born with the capability to practice magic.
Dahlia, Freya, and Inadu were created to explain away why a mainly werewolf child is able to be born a witch despite neither of her parents being one. Inadu was specifically created to give Hayley, and by proxy Hope, a strong connection to witchcraft and prop up the Labonair bloodline.
If they weren’t so heavily invested in pushing for Hope to be this almighty witch hybrid who’s destined to be the destroyer of all witches, they could have explored more of her wolf lineage and her connection to two of the most prominent packs. TO only mentioned the North East Atlantic Pack in two episodes and they completely abandoned the Crescents after two seasons. In Legacies neither are mentioned whatsoever.

Tell Suvi she’s wrong, as if you are a person in the world. We want to side with the spirit world because magic and metaknowledge about wizard hubris a trope and something Aabria loves and is incredible at.
But from Suvi’s POV, it is possible for any human to learn magic — not every one will be good at it (at least per the Citadel’s understanding of magic). And then there’s these spirits, who you have to worship or at least make a treaty with solely to keep from destroying you. Sure, some are good, but is it moral to let the bad ones live? Why do they have to come to her world? They have a place, they don’t have to interfere with her plane of existence. Just because they are more powerful, they get to interfere? And demand worship? As far we know at the moment, Naram is blessing Port Talon, but we don’t know everything. What if he bringing the fish to their shores and starving another port for not worshipping him?
Of course, you might want to say it’s about respect and not worship, but where do you draw that line with a god/spirit who’s actively involved in your life? If anything, looking at it from in world, witches are diplomats who are learning to beat spirits on their own terms. You could easily think that system isn’t great; the system seems based on favoritism and chosen ones and doesn’t apply equally to all.
In comparison, sure, the Citadel protects its favorites, but everyone still trains and learns together. Even a favorite who can’t learn a cantrip isn’t going to be able to advance too far. It could even feel more like a meritocracy. And you can beat the spirits on human terms, not theirs.
Suvi is breaking but she’s breaking because she’s young and powerful and coming to age and grew up around constant war. Sure, she grew up under what the Citadel teaches, but there’s a strong logic their words. Not to mentions, she’s already enough of a rebel by being okay with a witch and a singular spirit. We’re not gonna see her suddenly go against her and her family’s way of life two days after the scariest thing she’s ever seen.

............Actually, let’s amend that statement.
Tumblr media
In regards to the past few episodes of G-Witch, there’s been discourse about Miorine’s actions, how right or wrong they were, how culpable she is in the presently unfolding disaster on Earth, etc. And looking it all over, I gotta say...for the most part, this is 100% on Prospera, not Miorine. Because here’s the thing: Miorine in-universe and out gets a lot of praise for being really smart, a prodigy, a girlboss, etc. and yes, she is all that...but she’s also still a child. Realistically, there was no way that Miorine, for all her talents, was going to stand a chance matching wits against an experienced adult master manipulator like Prospera, and I’m not sure why anyone expected otherwise. Prospera knew exactly how to get into her head and how to lie or half-truth with believable conviction, so of course Miorine was going to be manipulated. l feel like assigning blame to Miorine is in the same vein as assigning blame to Sansa Stark for being manipulated by Cersei Lannister, or blaming any given Teen Titan for being manipulated by Slade Wilson. How about we just blame the grown-ass adult instead?
With that said, there was one thing she did wrong, which also gets misunderstood. See, looking at the situation from an objective lens what she pulled on Suletta in Season 2, Episode 5 was completely justified in terms of accomplishing what it needed to for Suletta. She’d tried being straightforward with Suletta and it didn’t work; Suletta’s known and trusted her mother and “sister” way longer than she has Miorine and couldn’t be persuaded to abandon them; they needed to abandon her if she was ever going to wake up from her brainwashing. However, the way in which Miorine did it was completely wrong-headed. Letting both her own personal realizations and anxieties mix with Prospera’s manipulation led Miorine to believe she’s doomed by blood and is her father’s daughter no matter how hard she tries not to be, so the best thing for everyone is for her to embrace that, to emulate her father and cut off all emotional ties, to let people believe she doesn’t care even when she does because “they’re better off that way”. Some people claimed she’s continuing an abuse cycle, but that doesn’t work when she’s this self-aware about her actions. What’s actually happening is that Miorine is continuing to abuse herself, and thinking that’s fine so long as she’s the only one who remains miserable as a result (and, as we all know...she wasn’t.)
Bringing up the Teen Titans and Slade again, this line from Robin fits well here: “Focused, serious, determined...as much as I hate to admit it, he and I are kind of alike. But there's one big difference between me and Slade. He doesn't have any friends.” Miorine should have realized that no matter what the similarities to her and Deling, she has friends and he doesn’t, and she should have reached out to them instead of just keeping things between herself, Prospera and Guel, neither of whom are people she likes. What she should really be kicking herself for now is just cutting Suletta loose and expecting her friends to pick her up rather than incorporating said friends in her plan of cutting Suletta loose from the beginning. Because now they don’t know what the Hell’s going on and are stumbling around blind.
Tumblr media
Does anyone at this point, Suletta? Does anyone really? Thanks a lot, Mio-Mio!

The Blackthorn charm:
The Blackthorn tree or sloe is a shrub native to Europe and several other places in the East. This trees poisonous thorns can cause sepsis, making this thorny hedge a very powerful symbol of protection and setting of protective boundaries.
This potent charm is used to protect the inhabitants of a home from curses, intrusions of any sort, attacks, outside interference, and all general malicious intent.
How to make:
Begin by taking a good piece of white or red string and remember… knots are a symbol of protection.
While tying the thorns to the string, recite the following spoken charms:
By knot of one, this spells begun
By knot of two, it cometh true
By knot of three, so mote it be
By knot of four, this power i store
By knot of five, this spell comes to life
By knot of six, this power i fix
By knot of seven, malicious power i lessen
By knot of eight, i seal the thieves fate!
Finally, pass the charm through a hoodfire/hoodlamp. Then through the smoke of incense three times.Then simply hang it in a window or near your hearth.
Blessed be!
🕯🐐🕯

Warding 101
Hello lovelies~ Today I'm going to be talking about warding: what it is, how to do it, and the differences it has from just regular old protection. Let's get into it
Tumblr media
What Is A Ward?
Wards are powerful spells that are used to only allow certain energies into a space. They are typically used for protection and are considered defensive magic, placed in someone's home. While wards can be cast on people, this is less typical due to the nature of wards being more preventative compared to a general protection spell.
They're used to protect areas from negative energies, to warn others to stay away from an area, to inform the caster when someone with evil intent is nearby, to keep a spirit contained, as well as a multitude of other things.
Wards Vs. Protection Spells
This is the most confusing point for many people when the conversation of wards comes up.
Typically, wards are used to prevent something from happening. Protection spells are also able to be used in this way, however they're better used as quick solutions when you're already under attack. Wards are difficult to do when you're already in that hostile situation; the main difference between wards and protection spells is the circumstance you cast them in.
Protection spells are like swords. They're quick, are sometimes able to block attacks, and are able to lash out in defense. Wards are are like shields. They are much more capable of blocking, and they're great for giving you space to build up your sword.
Tumblr media
Examples of Wards
Casting a circle
Using enchanted items to create a boundary (this also works for jewelry)
Placing black salt, brick dust, etc. in your doorways and windowsills
