Good choice, J.C. Now I'm waiting for the time you do Ran to Haiiro no Sekai and Mahoutsukai no Yome...

Huh, so that is the other name Ancient Magus' Bride goes by. As for Ran to Haiiro, wonder what its chances are, seeing as the manga finished last April?

Well, I do like JC Staff (mostly). I'm wondering if I've seen a series that is SoL with a magical element to it. Honestly, nothing is coming to mind right now. But, it is 2AM...so I'm running on fumes right now...

Very happy to see this. Laughing

Now if J.C. Staff wants to do "Ran" I'll be pulling out the "Big Ol' Bags O' Yen" to toss at them.

What did you expect, it's JC Staff. They did Shokugeki no Soma and Prison School.

There is the classic Sally the Witch, but I'm not sure if that's the kind of magic you had in mind.

The main character looks like the love interest from Bakuman.

Magic, supernatural...whatever you want to call it.

And, wow, does one really have to go that far back? Laughing

I have no idea what this manga does, but it would be nice to me if it turns into something along the lines of the Maria the Virgin Witch anime.

Slice of Life with a witch protagonist? Sounds like Sabrina the Teenage Witch: the Animation.

Try Someday's Dreamers seasons 1 and 2. Though the girls are more magicians than witches, the SoL part is solid. Plus I can really recommend season's 2 hyper-realistic style, I loved that. You have to see it in motion. Just... watch out for the plot.

I'm still really interested in this series and I still hate the name Flying Witch. Good thing Kiki's Delivery Service tried harder on their name or these guy would have to come up with something original, huh?

I honestly can't even say "more original". Last time I tried Me and My Cousin, the Witch. Maybe A Little Country Magic? The Vacationing Witch in Yokohama? Country Mouse, City Witch?

If it gets licensed, I hope they strive for a new title.
