Shiosai no Majo · review

9 /10

Fantastic series - the description on MAL doesn't do it justice. I'm not sure how and why, but it somehow ended up being one of my all-time favorites. Keep in mind you need to be in a specific mood/mindset to fully appreciate it, though. There is something eerie about how 'Shiosai no Majo' blends nostalgia, serenity, and a light, yet poignant dose of philosophy - all wrapped in touchingly beautiful art. Short, yet succinct, the manga encompasses 13 chapters. Each of them features a specific 'case'. Most of the time the 'cases' involve a character that's based either on fables/mythology, or existing human history. While not plot-based,the series somehow manages to achieve a slight hint of progression which surprised me.

Have you read/watched 'Bartender'? The mood in 'Shiosai no Majo' is very similar but in my opinion it takes things up a notch in terms of art quality and just general comfiness.

A solid 8.5/10 and one of the most criminally underrated (and virtually unknown!) manga series I've stumbled upon. I wish we were blessed with a few more chapters, but even as it stands, 'Shiosai no Majo' is a short, beauitiful read.
