Shout out to zabadoh@ani.social for directing me here. For some reason his comment doesn't show up on a post I made about this show (guessing our instances are defederated from eachother or something).

I didn't enjoy the episode so much, I thought the introduction with Aubrey Plaza was unnecessary. I would've liked them to take the time and introduce the teen more and showcasing his charisma and cunningness that comes out of nowhere for episode 2. He was the one who started breaking her out of the spell so should've been the one to talk her out of it while she was shedding her layers of it.

Then cue the fight scene, lackluster and the ending just seemed off with Agatha's back and forth character switching and then them just dropping the fight. Could've used the time with expanding on her fantasy and the differences in reality, like the library scene could've been really funny seeing how it really played out while she was stuck in the spell. I'm so glad they released the second episode because it feels like a huge stark contrast between "marvel plots" and the new possibility of the witches storyline and themes.

I agree it was a slower episode, but I think it was useful in establishing what Agatha has been up to this whole time. It gave a clear idea the type of hell she's been trapped in.
