Anime Feminist reviewed the first episode of The Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch. The review finds the premiere uncomfortable, citing frequent upskirting, a friend who sexually harasses the lead, and a scene where Spica offers her body in exchange for magic. The reviewer says the comedy relies on sexual stunners instead of the weird magic that could make the show distinct. A late sequence where Spica proves herself does not salvage the episode.
