Flying Witch 1 Review: A Sweet, Soothing Magical Tale - One of my favorite anime in 2016 was *Flying Witch*. It's a sweet show about a young girl who is, at age fifteen, considered an adult in the world of witches, but whose parents want her to, nonetheless, finish high school and get some more training and life experience. To that end, the young woman, Makoto moves away from the city where she lives and goes to stay with her extended family consisting of her uncle, aunt, and two cousins. Once she gets there, she gets reacquainted with her cousins. Kei, the older brother is her age and in her class, while Chinatsu, the younger sister was too young to remember her and is at first intimidated by, and even afraid of her. Partly this is due to her strange behavior of talking to her cat as if she (I think it's a she) could understand. All of this changes, of course, when she discovers that the cat (Chito) really can understand because Makoto is a witch, and thus has some fun things that she can do and is involved with due to her magic studies. Despite what it sounds like, the magic element, though ever-present, is really not the focus of the story. The focus is a fun, sweet, and soothing story where these characters live every-day lives interspersed with cute or funny examples of the supernatural. Makoto is absent-minded but a good sort. Kei is reliable but goes off on his own things sometimes. Nao (Kei's childhood friend and Makoto's new friend and classmate) is serious and sometimes the straight man to both Kei and Makoto's antics. Chito, Makoto's sapient cat familiar is a hoot and the uncle and aunt are (though rarely seen) fun characters too. And Chinatsu is so sweet and adorable. She could almost sell the story by herself. Of course, given my love for the anime, I went and purchased the first volume of the manga, and it was worth it. It's cool to see just how faithfully they adapted the manga and that the original story had the same fun and sweetness, just to a lesser degree, not because it isn't good enough on those fronts, but that the anime added more depth. The coloring and the music of the anime largely accounted for this deeper experience, but the manga was still a fun read. The artwork was actually quite good, with the only real drawback being the backgrounds, which are kinda vague in some panels. That's another area that the anime does better. Of course, vague backgrounds are a constant issue with manga, but this carries it to a whole new level. Really with the detail to character designs, facial expressions, so forth, it's a pity the author kinda seemed to skimp on backgrounds. But that's the only real issue at all with the art. I always enjoy a sweet and fun series, and *Flying Witch* most *definitely* fits the bill. I can't recommend it enough. Rating: 4.5/5 Stars.

I can’t get enough of it ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Genteel look at life in rural Japan (with added witches) *by A***Z on January 17, 2021* Like many people I first became aware of "Flying Witch" from the anime of the same name. This is a guilty pleasure anime for many, it's slow, it's gentle and utterly absorbing. Having seen the anime I realised that there were more books than the anime covered and so I bought the first one to see if the charm carried into print. This is the first of (currently) eight installments of the "Flying witch" manga. It features Makoto a high-school girl who also happens to be a trainee witch. She is sent from bustling Yokohama to rural Aomori to complete her training and to learn about life outside the city. This is the story of her adventures in a new place, new high-school, new friends and new mysteries to engage with. This first volume is well within the arc of the anime but events are written in a different order. This is a gentle, charming and romanticized version of life in rural Japan. It is sweet and charming. Life flows along quite slowly with Makoto and her cat as they learn about new places and people. It's restful and a romanticized view of the world. This is a very worthwhile addition to the anime and I look forward to reading the whole story. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/41784551-flying-witch-1](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/41784551-flying-witch-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
