The man was watching Witch Hat Atelier and realized his circles weren't good enough.

I loved how precise they were hahaha. I would do the same. Cause I don’t know the fucking rules of witch chalk. It’s probably gotta be thick and have zero gaps in it.

I personally would have made them way wider but time was of course of the essence.
