In my mind, I imagined a story about a girl who has no idea of magic and enrolls in a magic academy to learn spells, potions, and how to fly on a broom. The occasional adventure is also part of the package. That's what I gathered from the title and synopsis. In this case, we only see a little magic or learn how this particular magic system works as it goes straight to the adventure part.

As for the characters need to be better developed; they fit only a few predetermined features and do not grow (the dreamer, weirdo, etc.). Since this is the first volume, the manga should spend more time getting to know and developing the characters. As I understand it, this manga is adapted from an anime, so the anime (which I have yet to see) may do a better job. Still, they might want to warn readers that they need to see it before reading the manga because I do not think they are just working independently.

The art was middle-of-the-road and a little hard to follow with my eyes. The character designs are okay, but nothing too special. The story's pacing is slow, lacking an engaging plot. The manga is decent, but I recommend watching the original anime to get the whole experience.

Predictable but cute. Harry Potter meets Magical Girls. ( )

Not much of a fan of the artwork. Didn't know this was based on an anime. ( )

3.5 stars this was okay. But I think I will give the Netflix show a go before moving onto volume 2. ( )

I enjoyed it. Cute and keeping to the spirit of the anime series. It felt a little flat in comparison but I look forward to reading more. ( )
