"Mahoutsukai" or is it "Mahou Tsukai"?
Does this mean Enchantress? Or does it mean "Witch"? There's a difference because Enchantresses are beautiful.
Thank you! :-)

Mahoutsukai is one word, it means witch.
Enchantress is youfu.

Japanese 'folklore' does not distinguish between witches and Enchantresses. The European concept of an old lady with a large nose a wart and a cat does not have it's counterpart in Japan.
Usually a bad witch will be beautifull and dangerous at the same time.

mahoutsukai = magician, sorcerer, witch, wizard, enchantress
mahoutsukai is both men and women. not only enchantress. there are no meaning about beautiful in japanese.
you need to say beautiful mahoutsukai (=utsukushii mahoutsukai) if you want to say enchantress.
