Once Upon A Witch's Death Episode 2: Meg Goes To Lapis Town; Recap, Release Date, Where To Stream And More

In ‘The Witch With One Year to Live,’ Meg Raspberry, a 17-year-old apprentice witch, learns from her mentor, Faust of the Seven Sages, that she will die in one year due to the Death Sentence curse. The only cure is gathering 1000 joyful tears to grow a Seed of Life. 

Disheartened, Meg meets Anna, whose mother, Iris, recently died. To comfort them, Meg creates cherry blossom illusions using magic, collecting two tears. Inspired by the experience, she vows to surpass Faust and break the curse.

 

Once Upon A Witch's Death Episode 2 will see Meg’s friend Fine visit the Witch’s Manor. She is seeking help with a broken wristwatch, a keepsake from her grandfather. The watch isn’t functioning because the spirit inside has grown weak. 

As the curse limits Meg’s time, she must continue creating small miracles like this to gather the 1000 joyful tears. The episode will likely show Meg using her magic to connect with Fine and the people in Lapis Town, helping them in personal ways while progressing toward her life-saving goal.
