Preliminary (68/? chp)
For starters, I want to make clear that this story is worth reading even from a purely artistic standpoint, Kamome Shirahama is an excellent artist in the full sense of the word, always searching for ways to bring wonder to the pages and new inventive panelling to accompany it. The way she transmits her story conveys the wonder of magic by itself.

Going a bit more in-depth in the story, is one of the best implementations of a magic world I have seen, taking full consideration of the moral implications it would bring and touching moral dilemmas time and time again, showing both the reasons the world is like it is and how much it would improve if it was allowed to change. There are multiple organizations with power in the world, and all of them have an understandable standpoint to support their actions. It's not arbitrary, the world has been fully shaped by magic and all the things it brought to it on the past.

The characters are the simplest part here, reminiscent on some levels to the cast of Little Witch Academia, but with a deeper analysis on the motives behind their behavior and what shaped them to be like they are. It's pretty compelling overall.

The story is pretty well paced, sometimes I feel like it was getting a bit heavyhanded with the messages it tries to portray, but when i put all it's arguments on a scale I can see how deeply the author has thought of the implications of everything she wrote. I would delve on it more on depth, but I want to keep this as spoiler free as possible, I'll just say it's not laser focused neither on the objective of the protagonist nor in the plans of the antagonistic group. It's more than anything an exploration of the different sides a magic world would have, what it could have and all the wonder and pain it would bring.

I feel as if I have said nothing with this review, purely by saying general non-specific stuff, but to be honest, the only important takeaway is that I recommend to anyone of any age and demography. It's a story worth reading.
