In 2021, Kenta Shinohara's manga series WITCH WATCH debuted in Weekly Shonen Jump, and VIZ Meda obtained an English license for it. VIZ explains the narrative:
Morihito Otogi’s family is descended from a long line of ogre
familiars, and he has the inhuman strength to prove it. One day, his
father comes to him with the life-changing news that he is to become the
familiar of his childhood friend, the teenage witch Nico. He is to live
under the same roof with her and protect her from anything and anyone
that may attempt to harm her. Meanwhile, Nico is excited to get to live
with the love of her life, even if her crush is one-sided—Morihito is so
serious about his duties to protect her that any romance is going to be
an uphill battle. But he has every reason to be serious, as Nico has a
prophecy of doom hanging over her head!
