Majo (also known as Witch) is a delightful masterpiece. I found about it for the first time when I heard Tatsuki Fujimoto was inspired from it while making the Chainsaw Man. So I was like "oh, so if fujimoto was affected by this then it sure has to be an interesting manga" and started it. Before I started reading the manga I had a little research on it if there is anything I gotta know about it. Unfortunately, Majo was a very little known manga so I barely could find any reviews or comments about it. One of the few things I learnt was it'slength being something around 7 chapters and when I heard about it I was instantly disappointed. Because many of the short manga series that I previously read were very lame no matter how much they had potential. But I still didn't care and read it anyways. The outcome was unexpectedly awesome. I was in love with this manga. Everything was great about it.First of all, Majo is an anthology series each story centered around witches and witchcraft. Althought there is a huge amount of dialogues in each chapter the stories are very unique and immersive. The monster and spirit designs were grotesque and absurd which was incredible. I gotta say the whole manga in overall gave me huge vibes of Neil Gaiman's stories. There is just so much mystery, thriller, horror but also an odd feeling of joy and happiness. Also the creature designs were pretty similar to some beasts from his Sandman and Graveyard Book stories. Since Majo has multiple stories, I will only talk about my favorite out of all stories. The first 2 chapters are about a girl who had learnt witchcraft and travels to a distant city (which is actually Istanbul located in Turkey) and her fight against a witch there. And since it takes place in Turkey I thought we might have a lot of contents about Turk mythology. Well, we got a history lesson about Constantine instead. This story had huge symbolisms to Christianity and Judaism. Many background and creature designs were unusual and quite fascinating. It surely impressed me and I loved it. The other stories are also pretty special on their own but I believe the finest story out all of them was this first one. Anyway I won't just tell the rest of the manga. Go read it yourselves. It's definitely worth your time.
