- See more: List of Magic Spells
- Flip Flap Flat (ペラペランコ Peraperanko?):
- Super Light: Nico can make objects drastically lighter in terms of weight. When cast on people this spell also lightens their mood, changing their personality. A drawback of this spell is that the objects become temporarily heavier after the spell wears off.
- Embiggen (ビッグーン Biggūn?): Nico can make objects bigger. Casting it through the palm of her hand makes the entire target bigger, and funneling the magic through a single finger allows her to enlarge only part of an object. Repeating the spell on the same target returns it to its normal size.
- Pulp Fashion (パルプ・ファッション Parupu Fasshon?): Nico can create clothing from pictures and other media, but since pictures only show one side of the outfit, the other side of the reconstructed clothes will be transparent.
- Doublit (ダブリート ダブリート?): Nico can double herself at the cost of halving her physical size and her brainpower. Each of her halved selves can perform the spell again, allowing her to create four child-sized copies of herself.
- Witch Recovery: Nico can repair objects, even a letter that has been shredded into pieces.
- Through-N-Through (
壁抜け魔法 Surusurū?):
- Slime Lotion Gel Amoebas: Nico makes the ground around her incredibly slippery, like an ice-skating rink.
