My main complaint though is the word balloons. They float all over the place, sometimes covering the faces of characters, and are often difficult to trace back to the start of the sentence being spoken or even the character speaking them. Maybe they are being deliberately employed to obscure the fact that nothing much is going on here. Ho-hum. no reviews | add a review

Despite being completely hopeless at endeavors like farming and cooking, Liselotte, a young lady of noble birth and guardian to twins, Alto and Anna, picks up and moves to a remote land. At the easternmost reaches of her new home lies a forest where it's said witches roam. When Lise one day finds herself at the receiving end of one such witch's attack, she's saved by the sudden appearance of a young man named Engetsu. Though they're strangers, why is Engetsu remarkably similar to someone she already knows...? No library descriptions found. |

The story follows Lise and her companions living in a house near the so-called "witch's forest", which is exactly what it sounds like: a forest where witches live. This is by far the most intriguing thing about the manga, and while we don't learn very much about it, Lise already has a brush with a witch in this first volume, so it'll only be a matter of time before the witches take a greater role in the story.
