In Ojamajo Doremi season 1 episode 8, titled "Going to the Witch World!!," the girls discover that the magical land of witches, known as the Witch World, can be accessed through a magical portal that appears on the night of a full moon. Excited to see the Witch World for themselves, Doremi and her friends decide to stay up late and wait for the portal to appear.
As they wait, the girls share stories about their dreams and what they hope to achieve as witches. Doremi dreams of becoming the greatest witch in the world, while Aiko hopes to use her powers to help her cook delicious meals. Hazuki wishes to use her magic to help animals, and Onpu dreams of becoming a famous idol witch.
Finally, the portal appears, and the girls eagerly jump inside. They're transported to a wondrous magical world full of strange creatures and beautiful landscapes. As they explore, they encounter a group of friendly witches who welcome them warmly.
The girls are amazed by the incredible magic they see all around them--from gravity-defying levitation to powerful spells that can transform objects into anything they desire. As they witness the infinite possibilities of witchcraft, they feel more motivated than ever to hone their own skills.
However, the girls soon discover that not everything in the Witch World is as perfect as it seems. They stumble upon a group of witches who are unhappy with their lives and feel lost and unfulfilled. The girls are shocked to see that even in a world full of magic, some people can still feel like something is missing.
Determined to help, Doremi and her friends offer to use their magic to assist the unhappy witches in any way they can. They soon learn that the witches' unhappiness is due to their own self-doubt and lack of confidence in their abilities. As they offer words of encouragement and support, the girls help the witches rediscover their love for magic and their sense of purpose.
In the end, the girls bid farewell to their new friends and return to the human world, feeling inspired and determined to continue their own witching studies. They realize that while the Witch World may seem like an idyllic paradise, it's only through perseverance, hard work, and a strong sense of self that true happiness can be achieved.
"Going to the Witch World!!" is a heartwarming episode that showcases the power of friendship, perseverance, and self-belief. As the girls explore the magical world of witches, they learn valuable lessons about the importance of staying true to oneself and supporting others on their own journeys.
