okay see i know this is “bad” but i am in fact cheering. the brimmed cap made of feathers is SO sick i love custas mmmhmmm that’s my emo son

HOLY SHIT?????? my heart is pounding i am so engrossed in this rn!!!! custas is by far one of the best characters in this story, he has been part of some of the most emotionally satisfying arcs thus far and i cannot wait to see where he goes from here

oh i got CHILLS coco really is the perfect subject for the potential bridging of the brimmed caps’ and pointed caps’ ideologies. she knows what it’s like to yearn to become a witch and now she also knows that so many kids just like her will never have their wishes come true simply bc the knowledge of witchcraft is inaccessible to them. the weight of that unfairness has finally gotten too heavy for her to carry

i LOVE this trend of olly being the one to give agott the necessary tough love lessons!!! and since we saw qifrey run after her i’m hoping they’ll have a heart to heart and bond over how everyone judges them. she needs to learn the value and joy in making magic for HERSELF, not to prove others wrong

“the dreams of the aggressors you enable are, to the victims they prey upon, unbearable nightmares” i am speechless WOW (and yes unfortunately this is not helping the attraction to easthies he is so beautiful to me idc)

fucking kudos to shirahama for not shying away from calling sexual assault exactly what it is and making her stance on the severity of it as a crime INCREDIBLY clear. this manga’s ethics continue to pleasantly surprise me, it’s truly a breath of fresh air among some of its contemporaries in the genre

so the king’s name is DEAN????? okay weirdo. and unfortunately he’s hot and also super shady right off the bat i do not trust him one bit

before we even meet king ezrest i’m predicting that he prohibits magic in his castle bc his ego is fragile and he doesn’t want to be reminded of how he is in fact not the most powerful being in his realm despite being king

no he’s your WIFE and you should really be more grateful

no i’m with coco put that facial hair back on NYEOW. which is so funny bc when i first saw olruggio’s design i didn’t think he was attractive at all partially bc of the goatee but now that he’s without it i’m viscerally uncomfy. shirahama you’re making fun of us aren’t you
