The characters personalities shine with each page and even if characters are shown for a short time, you really get a feel for who they are and the art/dialogue really captures the spirit of each character!
Blind Idiot Translation The official English translation of the manga refers to Mirage as Miraj , the literal translation of the Japanese word for Mirage, instead of just simply using Mirage. Curb-Stomp Battle Diana s team quickly and utterly annihilated Akko s team in the volleyball match as soon as magic got thrown into the mix, with the former scoring 25 points and the latter only scoring a measly 2.
Summary: “Reach out your hand, and your story will begin!”
Those words changed young Atsuko “Akko” Kagari forever, sparking in her a lifelong dream of becoming a real witch. Now she’s been accepted to the same school as her childhood hero, Shiny Chariot-the prestigious Luna Nova Witchcraft Academy. As the only student to come from a non-magical family, Akko finds herself surrounded by prodigies from around the world, but giving up isn’t in her vocabulary. Whether it’s making friends, proving the doubters wrong, or just flying on a broom, Akko is going to make her fantasy a reality!
My Rating: ★★★★☆ ½
My Thoughts: Little Witch Academia Volume 1 follows Akko who dreams of being a witch and finds herself attending the Luna Nova Witchcraft Academy! With fun adventures and a delightful cast of characters, this is a great start as an adaptation for fans of the show and those unfamiliar with the series!
Little Witch Academia is easily one of my all-time favorite animes! I watched it when it first was released as a short film and fell in love with it!
If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it (start with the 2013 short) and then the series on Netflix! While the manga is definitely a great intro for those who’ve never seen it, the show is also just fantastic from the characters, world, story, etc. that you should definitely check it out (you won’t be disappointed)!
It basically follows Akko Kagari, who comes from a non-magical family, and her adventures as she attends Luna Nova, an all female school for witches. She’s always wanted to be a witch just like her childhood hero who inspired her, Shiny Chariot! She attends as one of only a couple non-traditional attendees at the school and makes new friends like Lotte & Sucy!
Though she gets into quite a bit of trouble, she doesn’t give up on her dream to become a witch and has such wacky adventures along the way!
From Akko’s first day, to a competitive volleyball match, the case of a mysterious broom by the name of The Shooting Star, & plan for a birthday party, she gets into some fun and interesting situations!
Just like in the anime, we meet familiar faces like Lotte & Sucy, the students Akko first meets that help her out on her way to Luna Nova & who end up becoming her best friends/roommates!
Then there’s Diana Cavendish, Akko’s “rival” who always butts heads with her! The two don’t get really get along, but there’s definitely moments where (while they don’t admit it) they see eye-to-eye on certain things & may even have more in common than they first assume!
And there’s also Amanda O’Neill, who’s a bit of a rebel and is a bit brash with Akko, but they definitely form a bond + beginnings of a friendship in this volume! (Their dynamic on the show is also really great 😍 ♥ )
While the story mainly has an intro and various short adventure chapters, the ending leaves on mysterious note, where you learn a bit more about the school and are left wondering where Volume 2 will be headed!
The art was done just like it is in the show & if you ever see it in person, the cover design is so beautiful & colorful!
The characters personalities shine with each page and even if characters are shown for a short time, you really get a feel for who they are and the art/dialogue really captures the spirit of each character!
And for fans of the show, its also just a great addition to the Little Witch Academia universe! While it definitely goes in a bit of a different direction than the show & intro short, its still such a fun read!
Little Witch Academia Volume 1 is a fun, magical introduction & addition to the Little Witch Academia series! You’ll get immersed into the world of the Luna Nova Academy and as you follow Akko on all her adventures, you’ll definitely want Volume 2!

Manga / Little Witch Academia (Keisuke Sato)
Based on the 2017 TV series, unlike the previous manga adaptations, which primarily told their own original stories, the manga is more of a traditional adaptation, largely following the same story as the TV series, with several episodes from the TV series getting directly adapted into manga form. However, several original stories are sprinkled into the mix in order to flesh out the world and characters a bit more.
The manga would begin serialization on Monthly Shōnen Ace on December 26, 2016, and would run until August 26th, 2018, making it the longest-running of the manga adaptations, with 17 chapters (plus two bonus chapters) in total.
Shortly after its completion, all 17 main chapters (though not the bonus chapters) would be compiled into three volumes, which would be released worldwide in 2018 and 2019 respectively in several countries in North America and Europe, making it the first and only Little Witch Academia manga to be officially released outside of Japan.
Not to be confused with the earlier manga by Teri Terio, which has its own page here.
