This looked, and sounded really cute, but I guess it was not meant to be.

From the start I was annoyed with Neko. Her delusions are just a bit too much. She thinks everyone will just accept her and be amazed with her, but the truth is people don't want witches. And sorry, with all the stuff Neko does (or actually doesn't) I can imagine that people might be distrusting.

She is a witch, apparently, but can't do anything. Yes, fly, but she has a fear of heights, so that doesn't work. Her magic keeps failing, or making horrific figures.
Maybe it is because she doesn't want to be a witch, and is that blocking whatever she has for skills. But frankly I don't believe it. And yes, she is still in training, but really? Shouldn't she be able to do some things on a good level at least?

I also wondered why her mom threw her out for training without even giving her a bit of basic understanding of how life works. How to cook. How to find a job. How to talk to people. And she keeps screwing things up. I can imagine a few things going wrong, but this many? No. She is 15 but she can't do anything.

The shrine maiden girl, bleh, I dislike her so much. I also don't get why she is so grumpy and angry at our girl. Sure, she is an idiot, but that doesn't mean you have to glare at her all the time, or make remarks. Also what is up with her attitude regarding when someone pops in the bath part of the house? Isn't that like a shared one? So for more than one person? Also isn't Neko a girl? So why did our shrine maiden girl act like she encountered a guy each time.

So yeah, I am not seeing in why everyone is so happy about this one. I guess different tastes and all that, but it feels like I am the only one who didn't like this one.

The art was really good, and I quite liked it. It is also what saved this one from a 1 star.

L'histoire fait forcément penser à Kiki la petite sorcière car on part sur le même principe d'une sorcière novice qui arrive en ville pour se former et il faut que cela soit dans une ville sans sorcière et dans un monde où les habitants ne connaissent plus vraiment les sorcières. Mais on est dans une ambiance beaucoup plus comique avec un focus sur Neko la sorcière et ses 2 futures amies.

Je croyais tomber sur une histoire similaire à Kiki la petite sorcière, mais je me suis retrouvée avec un personnage inconcevable. Elle est d’une nullité qui fait frémir un parent à l’idée qu’une mère puisse laisser sa jeune fille de 15 ans qui ne sait RIEN faire de ses dix doigts partir seule pour un an sans aucun soutien. Elle n’a pas une bonne attitude, et les autres personnes ne sont pas bien mieux. Bref, ça ne m’a pas laissé le goût de lire la suite.

J’ai pris plaisir à m’attarder sur les illustrations. Le character design est sympathique. Les visages sont expressifs à souhait.
J’ai beaucoup aimé cette lecture et j’emprunterai assurément le prochain puisqu’à la fin, Neko semble enfin réagir, donc j’ai hâte de découvrir ce que les auteurs nous réservent.

Petit manga cute. Cette sorcière en formation est âgée de 15 ans et doit prouver qu'elle peut se débrouiller seule durant une année pour enfin vivre comme les autres filles de son âge. Le hic est qu'elle est vraiment maladroite et ne sait pas vraiment ce qu'elle veut faire.

Pas mauvais mais c'est gentillet. Une parodie de Kiki la petite sorcière sauf qu'elle n'utilise jamais ses pouvoirs (enfin quand elle le fait ça n'impacte pas la suite des événements, elle s'en sort toujours à la mode des non sorciers). Pas ouf.

C’est mignonnet. Clairement inspiré par Kiki la petite sorcière. Mais en version adolescente maladroite. Personnage dynamique mais un peu caricatural.

Manga sympa, mais sans plus.

Ça se lit bien.
Les dessins sont choux.
L'histoire est plutôt mignonne.

Une série mignonne avec une héroïne très maladroite qui fait de son mieux et ne baisse jamais les bras pour aider les autres.
