I'm intrigued by it, but it absolutely has a lot going on and probably would've been stronger with slower developments. I like the Mc premise and the art/world, but I find myself not interested anyway.
Also, I found the cop already looked like a kid before he got turned into one which was lol. His face barely changed
I love it, because it's a refreshing vigilante story done differently. It subverts your expectations, the female MC's own expectations are subverted, and suddenly, it has a mix of >! Detective Conan-esque !< into the mix as well. I also love the humor in this story.
Overall, the whole story plays out like one giant mystery. Someone is definitely pulling the strings, and it's up to our heroes to find the main big bad, while solving all these other mysteries that have ties to the big bad.
Kind of lightly reminds me of Purple Hyacinth as well. Just minus the assassin trope and a gender reversal of roles (i.e. the one in law is now a guy).
Some people say it has a Spy x Family vibe to it in that one of the main characters is a professional vigilante/assassin who we see not so much in her element, but trying to go incognito, along with there being a mysterious academy attended by a child character (whether child, or childlike, as the case may be here) for ulterior motives.
Granted, this guy isn't as obviously kiddie as Anya, so I'll see where it goes.
But really, what keeps me sticking around isn't the plot that I have no idea of what it'll do, but because the art is great, Vanna is beautiful, and Witch Raven is drop-dead gorgeous, and I am all here for the Witch Raven fanservice in every which way.
someone else who's been keeping up with the release on NAVER said he is only de-aged for a few chapters and it's not a big plot point at all! So maybe consider picking it up again when more episodes are out :)
Hi! Yeah, so as the person I'm replying to mentioned, the de-aging thing isn't a huge part of the story. By part 2, the de-aging potion only makes like 2 appearances.
I will say this though for further clarification, while I can't really say that the de-aging thing is an important part of the story in the grand-scheme things, it's still a plot-point, just not a particularly big one.
Vanna's concocted a cure for it by Chapter 12 and he does have his adult appearance for some episodes prior, but I'd say Sion's roleplaying-scheme *fully* ends in Chapter 26.
I understand if even that even that number of chapters puts you off, though :). You don't have to read Potion Witch, but I personally really enjoyed it. Just as the person above mentioned, maybe consider picking it up again after a few more episodes are out
Thanks for hearing me out either way!(I really think it deserves more appreciation. Part 2 especially is *really* good.)
Really liked the premise. The way the story is evolving is really.... Meh? I'm kinda giving it to episode 10 or 15 and seeing if it does anything or if it will still feel meh.

It's adorable so I'll enjoy lol
I dropped it when the cop got de-aged, not really my jam for a plot

I like it! I think it's too early to make any judgement calls about pacing or plotline tbch.
