In Ichi the Witch, witches are humans who earn magic by completing a Majik’s trial, and the Majiks themselves are living forces with distinct personalities and powers. That means strength is never just about who can blow up the biggest area: witches can also win through control, versatility, barriers, information gathering, and even institutional authority.
Now, some witches specialize in narrow applications, and the Mantinel Witches Association functions like a structured magical bureaucracy with departments, research, and rank. So this ranking is not just “who hits hardest.” It is about who most consistently bends the world of the manga to their will. It’s currently one of the best Shonen Jump manga to read.

10 Shirabedonna — The Analytic Witch
Shirabedonna from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Shirabedonna’s analyses are trusted so deeply within the Mantinel Witches Association that they are treated as correct, which is exactly why she earned her title. She can use Sachikila to rapidly gauge a target’s physical characteristics, and she also displays some kind of portal-based movement ability, even if the exact source of that power is still unknown. She does not just understand the battlefield; she tells everyone else what the battlefield means.
9 Jikishirone — The Oracle Witch
Jikishirone from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]After spending a decade in a coma, Jikishirone was possessed by the Prophecy Majik and became the Oracle Witch, one of the highest-ranking witches in the Association. The story places her inside the Prophecy Majik’s Magic Circle, which makes her feel less like a normal witch and more like a living extension of fate itself. That kind of power does not always create the biggest explosion, but it can absolutely decide the war.
8 Franken Dessucy — The Voracious Witch
Franken Dessucy from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Franken is listed among the Mantinel Witches Association’s titled witches. However, the manga is yet to reveal her true potential. That keeps her in the “almost certainly terrifying, still waiting on receipts” category. She ranks above the cadets because her placement among the titled witches is itself meaningful, yet she cannot be pushed any higher without actual spell evidence. Well, silence can imply danger, but only up to a point.
7 Amadoro Ribboncandy — The Bullet Witch
Amadoro Ribboncandy from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Amadoro’s family’s proprietary Majik, Muscat, gives Ribboncandy witches a personalized firearm based on magical level, and Amadoro’s immense reserve earned her a Giga Machine Gun. The Muscat lets her fold the properties of other spells into her bullets, meaning she can turn ordinary firepower into an ugly hybrid attack. Her minigun has already been shown firing Lazud-powered bullets strong enough to destroy a transportation mirror and part of the Association’s roof.
6 Tricaputo — The Villainous Witch
Tricaputo from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Tricaputo is a classic high-rank mystery character: intimidating by position, maddeningly underexplained in combat terms. Her full abilities are unknown, but she is still clearly treated as a titled witch inside the Mantinel Witches Association. That is enough to keep her above the cadets, but not enough to place her above Fujimine or the witches with confirmed heavy-hitters. Her whole vibe is “you should be worried, even if you do not yet know why.” At this stage, that keeps her in the upper tier of the ranking, but still below the witches with on-page proof.
5 Fujimine — The Vanquisher Witch

Fujimine is what happens when a witch stops pretending to play nice. Her powers are largely unknown, but her reputation is anything but vague. She has committed countless violent and destructive crimes, with over one thousand victims. Her confirmed Majik, Toxiterror, produces a toxic miasma that can melt metal and rot anything it touches. It gives her a brutal edge over witches whose strength is still mostly implied rather than demonstrated. Fujimine’s powers make her one of the most dangerous witches in the entire cast.
4 Chikutoge Togeice — The Silver Snow Witch
Chikutoge Togeice from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Chikutoge is the series’ “I am talented and I know it” nightmare scenario. Her magic specialty is ice, and she can create ice walls, build constructs, and freeze targets instantly. Her spell list is absurdly stacked: Huldra summons a giant three-headed ice dragon, Helganma unleashes a massive earthworm-like Majik that devours and freezes everything, Macilvaine can encase enemies in giant mushrooms, and Durandla can freeze whatever she points at “to death.” She even momentarily froze the World-Hater Majik. That is why she ranks in the top three of this list.
3 Ichi — The First Male Witch
Ichi from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Ichi shattered centuries of tradition by becoming the world’s first male witch after successfully conquering a Majik, an achievement previously believed to be impossible. Unlike most witches who spend years accumulating Majiks and refining their Magic Circles, Ichi possesses a natural talent for hunting and defeating Majiks that borders on absurd. For now, Ichi remains at No. 3 because he lacks their experience and decades of magical knowledge. However, among all the witches currently active, he possesses the highest ceiling.
2 Moneygold — The Aureate Witch
Moneygold from Ichi the Witch. [Credit: Shueisha]Moneygold is the ranking’s perfect reminder that authority can be a weapon. Her abilities include strategic judgment, including her role in directing the raid against Uroro. As President of the Mantinel Witches Association, she can issue orders to witches and even block them from taking certain actions. That is why she sits above witches who may have flashier combat kits but less institutional reach. Moneygold is the one who can move the whole army before the fight even starts.
1 Desscaras — The Abyssal Witch

Desscaras is still the queen of the board. She’s the strongest witch, and her offensive spell is Lazud. She has already nearly destroyed Uroro with her power. Beyond that, she can hunt and track Majiks, erase magical barriers, and even use the Revive Spell to restore what has been ruined. That gives her a terrifying blend of offense, utility, and battlefield control. She ranks above everyone else because she is not simply powerful in one category. She is dangerous everywhere the story needs her to be.
Here’s a summary table for you to take a look at:
| 1 | Desscaras | The Abyssal Witch | Lazud, Lapta, Iskandar, Parthion, Magical Barrier Removal, Revive Spell, etc |
| 2 | Moneygold | The Aureate Witch | Strategic Command, Association Authority |
| 3 | Ichi | The First Male Witch | Multiple Acquired Majiks, Exceptional Physical Ability, Danger Sense |
| 4 | Chikutoge Togeice | The Silver Snow Witch | Ice Magic, Huldra, Helganma, Durandla |
| 5 | Fujimine | The Vanquisher Witch | Toxiterror, Toxic Miasma |
| 6 | Tricaputo | The Villainous Witch | Unknown |
| 7 | Amadoro Ribboncandy | The Bullet Witch | Muscat, Minigun |
| 8 | Franken Dessucy | The Voracious Witch | Unknown |
| 9 | Jikishirone | The Oracle Witch | Prophecy Majik, Future Sight |
| 10 | Shirabedonna | The Analytic Witch | Sachikila, Portal |
