Flying Witch is a slice of life, supernatural manga written and illustrated by Chihiro Ishizuka. The series began as a one shot manga in 2010 being published in the August issue of Kodansha’s Bessatsu Shounen Magazine. The manga was then serialized in the same magazine starting from August 2012 where to date a total of 3 volumes have been compiled and released. The fourth volume is scheduled to release in April this year.
Here is the series’ synopsis:
The comical story follows the 15-year-old witch Makoto Kowata and the other boys and girls in her daily life. With her black cat Chito, the somewhat aimless girl moved from Yokohama to live with her second cousin at Aomori in verdant northern Japan.
